Settings > Planning > Daily Planning Instructions
section of your settings.
Let Rize Guide You

Auto Start Planned Sessions
setting enabled in the settings section. You can quickly toggle this setting by clicking on the double arrow
icon on the dashboard in the timer or on the bottom.
Pomodoro Technique
Many of our users have been asking to be able to run a more traditional Pomodoro technique with Rize, and it's now possible with planned sessions. Simply slick the
bolt icon
and choose the Classic Pomodoro Timer
option.

You can now customize they keywords used to automatically create Focus Sessions, Breaks, or Meetings from your calendar events. Previously, you could only use
#rize-focus

, and #rize-meeting
. You can set these custom keywords for each calendar integration in Settings > Calendars
