Detailed feature specifications
Reminder Service (status: 100%)
- inactivity detection, if there is no interaction for given time interval ask user what's going on
- stop measuring task and offer options (1. go on, 2. working on other task, 3. doing nothing + turn off switch)
- default interval and default action in system settings
Hibernation Support (status: 100%)
- delayed clock tick detection, in case of significant delta ask user or do predefined action automatically
- according to user preference: ignore delta & stop measuring current task or add delta & continue measuring current task or don't add delta but ask user what to do
- default hibernation threshold set to 10 minutes + default action set to ask user - both configurable in system settings
Main Window Appearance (status: 100%)
