Focusbar 4+

I had been using this app for a few months. It does a real good job at keeping your attention on the task at hand.

The only annoyance that recently appeared is the reminder of iDoneThis integration on startup. I have my workflow to automatically quit and open FocusBar on every job I do (I use the Pomodoro system), and it is really annoying that the iDoneThis reminder is there every time, that FocusBar does not anything until you click it away, and there is no way to turn it off. This has made FocusBar unusable for me for now. But it should be an easy fix?

One feature enhancement I would request is one simple AppleScript command so that we can update the text in FocusBar with an automated workflow. I don't think there is a need for making everything (like the position of the window) scriptable, I just need the one command 'tell app "FocusBar" to display "My next task"'. Now I am doing this by hacking the preferences file with PListEditPro and that is supremely unreliable :/

I love this app, but I wish that it popped up every time I switch to another tab in my browser- Because when I switch from Word to Chrome, I might still be doing research, but then when I click the tab to open Facebook, I’m definitely not, and THAT’S when I need this app the most. Would be helpful.

This would be PERFECT for me except for one problem. You are only given 4 choices of where the focus window pops up -- up, down, left, right. But that is on the fringes of the screen -- out of the way, unnoticed. Since the alert disappears in seconds, for me I need it right smack in the middle of the screen where I can see it. Otherwise, you don't even notice it's appearance. Please release an update that allows the user to put the focus warning where it can be seen, or where it is tougher to ignore. A simple user settings adjustment should suffice.
