How to set up Focus Time with Inbox Pause

With Boomerang's Inbox Pause feature, you can now schedule focus time in your workday to get through important tasks without those email notifications sidetracking you. Every time you get interrupted by an email notification, it can take up to 20 minutes to regain focus, so setting up a Focus Time pause schedule can be perfect for carving out deep work time that needs your full attention.

Inbox Pause Schedules are a Pro Subscription plan feature. You can upgrade to a Pro Subscription plan here.
