Windows 11 will be here before we know it, and a Microsoft executive just introduced a new feature called Focus Sessions. It seems to integrate Spotify into the Windows operating system.
¿Qué son las “sesiones de enfoque” in Windows 11?
Microsoft Product Manager Panos Panay showed a short video on Twitter showing how Focus Sessions will work, and it looks promising. The video comes just a day after the executive teased the new Snipping Tool in Windows. 11.
Otro primer vistazo del equipo …#FocusSessions sobre # Windows11 próximamente, en breve, pronto. Esto ha sido un cambio de juego para mí, especialmente con @Spotify integración #Productividad #Creatividad #WindowsInsiders pic.twitter.com/HfJh4niDiS

The new feature is part of the Windows Alarms & Clock app. You select how long you want to work without distractions and what task you need to work on. Later, Windows will block out all other distractions during that time so you can enter the area and do your work.
curiously, it seems that Spotify is integrated at the operating system level with Focus Sessions, as you can choose a playlist to listen to while working directly from the Alarms & Clock app. It seems pretty simple, and the fact that you don't have to waste time switching to a separate app to get music up and running seems like an excellent convenience..
(Of course, in Windows 10, a Spotify widget comes with the game bar, but you must have the Spotify app installed to use this particular game bar widget).

Lock your focus
Focusing on work is always difficult, but it seems that this new feature coming to Windows 11 (which is a modified version of Windows Focus Assist 10) will help with that. According to the video, looks well done and great that it integrates well with the Windows experience 11.
