Lofi music player in focus mode
James Black
Avoiding having to line up other software alongside sunsama would be helpful to avoid distractions. I think an integration might be more realistic than Sunsama becoming DJs though, see the related suggestion: https://roadmap.sunsama.com/integrations/p/brainfm-integration-for-focus

I think this would be really great if integrated with a service like Spotify so people can choose the music they want, similar to how Windows focus timer integrates with Spotify and pauses the music after the session is over.
An integration would also be good with issues like this (https://roadmap.sunsama.com/improvements/p/timer-sound-should-be-heard-if-other-sounds-are-playing) where I don't actually hear the timer ending because my music is playing

A spotify integration would be so cool. Maybe we can set our favorite lofi playlist to start automatically.

My feedback on the Focus Mode feature is that it's a great way to
mentally
commit to doing a task. But our brains are always seeking the shortest path to dopamine and aren't reliable... unless trained over time. The easier solution (and a step up for focus mode) would be to
environmentally
commit to focusing on a task. I think there are two ways to achieve this via the Product - - Block out distracting websites (StayFocusd)
- Have repetitive, non-lyrical music playing in the background (BrainFm)
I think this would be an awesome feature to have as we get to plug into the natural behaviors of people (it is common to listen to lofi beats, classical music, binaural beats etc. when you want to focus)
Integrating this directly into the product would make it stickier and help people get focused work done seamlessly using Sunsama as their only interface - which is our mission too.

Something like a simplistic version of https://www.brain.fm/ would be best.

Surprised this is not a more popular feature request, would also love this
