During a session the Focus Bar keeps the context visible wherever you are: the task you chose, the time it has taken, and the actions you might need. It lives on other people's websites, so it behaves like a guest — it reserves its own space instead of covering the page, and it never animates for attention.
How it works
- Rendered in a Shadow DOM so the host page's CSS and yours never collide.
- It offsets the page rather than overlapping it, so the site's own top content stays reachable.
- Controls scale down as the window narrows, dropping to a compact form before anything becomes unusable.
- Hide it to a small pill at any time; show it again in one click.
- Specific adaptations exist for SPAs and demanding sites, Google Docs and Google Maps among them.
