  2. Choose the compatible Windows, macOS or Linux release and read its installation notes.
  3. Set a short practice work round and separate short and long breaks.
  4. Try the task list, notification and tray behavior before enabling strict mode or full-screen breaks.
  5. Keep timer settings compatible with your work needs; strict mode prevents ordinary pause, skip and reset actions while active.
