I have tried sOOO many apps that help me with my awful focus. And this pretty much my dream app! So much personalization is already offered on the free version and that just makes me want to buy the Pro app even more. Haha! But besies that, my love for metrics is very much what drew me as well to this app. It shows you charts and everything. Such a plus that the developer listens to feedback!

ANY UPDATES FOR 2026?
@TheLastAlchemist
Hey! It’s been ages since your last update? Do you really allow this app to be completely gone? Any innovative ideas? New updates per se? To tell you the truth, apps like this help me keep my focus together especially in a world where distractions are like battles that I have to win over everyday. Such lifesavers! But you also have to note that you have to constantly improve your app because attention economy who drives these distances are getting better and better also.Here’s my suggestions: (1)integrate a tree growing goal just like in other apps, (2)donation drive for Palestine or something. (3) App integrations. Integration with Apple Calendar in that the each timeblock on calendar can be seamlessly have a time. For example: 7am to 7:30am - Breakfast (Timer), 7:30 am to 8:00 am - Prepare, etc. Integration with Craft docs app in terms of focus statistics, tracking productivity, (4) In-app Lofi beats, (5) More customizations and features for free users, (6)AI Integration, (7) Habit Map Tracker which sees my progress like dots on a monthly, yearly view, etc, (8)Please provide one- time purchase, and (9) Free Account Login and Synch features in all of my devices, (10) Gamified experience 2026 is coming! Surprise us and KEEP THE APP ALIVE!!!
