V1.2.3

Live dashboard & tracking reliability

1.2.3 focuses on real-time productivity data and the reliability of context-switch tracking, and adds product analytics through a PostHog integration.

Focus Shield & preferences

  • Added a Focus Shield settings view and updated configurable focus preferences.
  • Refactored the deep-work session helper to improve continuous deep-work tracking and distraction-overlay behavior.
  • Updated release feeds (appcast.xml / appcast-dev.xml) and bumped the app version to 1.2.3.

Live dashboard & real-time productivity engine

  • Consolidated dashboard counters to sync against a single clock timer for seamless real-time updates.
  • Restored immediate counter updates so there is no delay when active time changes.
  • Fixed break-total calculation bugs and ensured deep-work sessions resume cleanly using the frontmost application after a break ends.
  • Stabilized report rendering and snapshot updates whenever live productivity data changes.

Tracking & context-switch reliability

  • Fixed an issue where rapidly switching between apps while resolving browser tab URLs via AppleScript caused context switches to be dropped.
  • Replaced single-flight drops with FIFO event queues so all rapid context switches are preserved and processed sequentially.

Product analytics (PostHog integration)

  • Added 5-minute PostHog heartbeats, app-update detection, and shared version/build tracking.
  • Instrumented deep-work lifecycles, Pro trial and feature usage, break outcomes, item creation/deletion, permission changes, AI coach interactions, and research triggers.
  • Debounced rapid duplicate audio event tracking within a 3-second window while retaining playback/record looping metadata.
