I love this app, however, I miss the old dial for setting focus time. Also, why can't I see the total focus time on my home screen. Please fix that, it's such a hassle going to the forest to check how much I studied.

i've been using this app for years but with the newer updates the app became unusable. there are way to many useless features, the new slider to set the time looks horrible, the app keeps crashing and everything is so obviously vibe coded with AI it's actually frustrating. i don't understand why they think that adding more and more features is going to help the app, it was perfect just the way it was before any AI was used.
