The “Add via URL” feature in Sunsama allows users to quickly create tasks by importing them from other tools and websites using a URL. To use this feature, copy the URL from the source (e.g. Gmail, Todoist, Notion) and paste it into the task creation modal in Sunsama. The platform will recognize the URL, suggest an import option, and create a linked task with a useful title. Users can also use the global add task shortcut to quickly create tasks without leaving the other tool. This feature works with integrated tools and generic websites, but importing from other tools requires setting up integrations in Sunsama.

Arc, the innovative browser known for its sidebar feature, has launched a mobile app for iPhones. This app, focuses on bringing users’ Arc sidebars to their mobile phones rather than serving as a full-fledged mobile browser. The app is currently available on iOS for users with an existing Arc Account. It allows users to access their Arc spaces and bookmarks, but lacks many features of a traditional mobile browser. The Browser Company, which created Arc, intends to eventually replace users’ default browsers with their app and build their “internet computer” vision into a mobile app. The Arc mobile app also serves as a launcher for other apps on the user’s phone, furthering the company’s vision of creating an “operating system for the internet.”

Summary

The Sunsama focus bar provides a helpful way to stay focused on your tasks and manage your time outside of Sunsama. To use the focus bar, you need to reposition it to the desired position on your desktop, and use the ‘play’, ‘pause’ and ‘check’ buttons to start, pause, and complete tasks. You can also use keyboard shortcuts such as ‘f’ to focus a task, ‘spacebar’ to start the timer, and ‘command shift spacebar’ to toggle the visibility of the focus bar. Additionally, you can change the key bind from your account settings page and disable the global keyboard shortcut entirely if needed. Lastly, make sure you have the Sunsama desktop app running in the background (v2.0.7 or newer) to use the focus bar.
