Adding on that Google just released their Watch 4 and I'm thinking of getting it for situations like this. So, I can check items off and start/pause timers through the watch that way I can't be distracted through my phone.

Yes please!

I came here to suggest something similar. Even just being able to see the currently active timer on my smartwatch would be very useful! Finding a place to have my current task time consistently visible while working and moving around is one of my most frequent points of friction using Sunsama at the moment.
