Sprint

A Sprint is a timed writing session with a word goal. Open Sprint from the sidebar, or start one from the Command Palette.

Setting a Sprint

Pick:

• Duration — 25 minutes by default; set what suits you.
• Goal — words to add. Quick-start gives you 25 minutes and 500 words.

Trove records your starting word count, runs the timer, and shows the delta. When the timer ends you get a Toast — keep writing or stop. Either way the Sprint is logged.

Sessions

A Session is the broader writing-time tracker. Every Sprint, plus any free writing you do, rolls up into:

• Daily and weekly totals — words written today and across the week.
• The writing-stats heatmap — your year at a glance.
• Per-Manuscript progress — words against the Manuscript’s target, with an optional deadline.

Set a Manuscript’s word target and deadline from its overview. The Desk shows recent activity when you open the app.

See Drafting for the editor surface that runs Sprints.
