Windows and Devices head Panos Panay has revealed a new focus session Feature that will be part of Windows 11 Update Twitter. Describing it as a ‘game-changer’, the feature was teased through a short clip.
In this clip, it can be seen that Windows 11 Focus Session will allow users to select a task from the list of tasks for a particular focus session. Next, it will allow them to choose a song through an integrated music streaming app to play while performing that task. Post this, it will allow users to select a time frame for that task with support for optional breaks in between.
The Focus Sessions feature has been introduced for now and will soon be made available to Windows Insiders, said Brandon LeBlanc, Senior Program Manager. Windows Insider Program Team on Twitter.

Apple’s Focus Mode
Earlier this year, Apple announced the Focus Mode that it would roll out with iOS 15 — which is expected in September — and once enabled on Apple devices, it automatically turns on users’ other Apple devices. Applies to the device.
With Apple’s Focus Mode, users will be able to set filters for notifications, calls, and even messages. Users can receive alerts on how and when they need them at particular times. There’s also an auto-reply feature that can automatically send messages when you’re not using the iPhone. Once focus mode is on, there is an option to customize the home screen as well.
