🚀 Massive Update: 2x Trees, Custom Countdowns, & GIF Backgrounds!

Hey Clock Club! 👋

We’ve just rolled out a brand-new update packed with some of your most highly requested features and quality-of-life improvements. Here is everything new in Clockface Online today:

🔥 High-Stakes Focus: 2x Trees in Strict Mode

Want to climb the leaderboard faster? Turning on Strict Mode in the Focus Center now rewards you with 2x the trees (grow 2 trees for every 5 minutes focused instead of 1!).

• The Catch: If you switch browser tabs or leave the page, your session will fail and your tree will wither. (Don't worry, we added a 30-second grace period just in case you accidentally click away!).
• Smarter Timers: The Focus Center now automatically remembers your last-used timer length so you don't have to keep resetting it every time you log in. (Note: Timers are now capped at 2 hours per session to keep the global forest fair!)

🎨 Infinite Colors for Countdowns

Your custom Countdowns just got a major glow-up.

• We’ve expanded the default color swatches to include a wider variety of beautiful, aesthetic presets.
• Want something completely unique? Click the new Palette Icon to open a custom color picker and perfectly match your countdown to your background!

✨ GIF Backgrounds are BACK!

You asked, we listened! We recently upgraded our image uploader to make the app run faster, which accidentally broke animated GIFs. We’ve built a special bypass specifically for GIFs so you can get back to studying with your favorite animated lofi windows and pixel-art scenes. (To keep the app running lightning-fast for everyone, GIF uploads are capped at 4MB).

🛡️ Behind-the-Scenes Polish

We’ve also squashed a few bugs, improved UI layouts on mobile, and added ultra-fast, invisible bot protection to our sign-up pages to keep the community safe and secure.

Thank you so much for your continued feedback and support. Happy focusing! ☕🌲
