About

Focus Pal - Take Back Your Screen Time Reclaim focus. Build better habits. Feel in control. Focus helps you step away from distracting apps and create intentional screen breaks - on your terms - using native Screen Time capabilities for a seamless, private, and reliable experience. Why You’ll Love It - Calm the noise and be present in moments that matter. - Make focused work (or true rest) effortless with one‑tap breaks. - See your progress with clear, privacy‑first insights. - Works with iOS Screen Time for trustworthy app shielding. What Focus Does - One‑Tap Focus: Instantly shield distracting apps you choose for a set duration. - Smart Schedules: Plan recurring breaks that fit your day (morning focus, evening wind‑down, deep‑work blocks). - App & Category Control: Select specific apps or entire categories to reduce temptation and save your attention. - Gentle Reminders: Nudge yourself to take healthy breaks before fatigue or doom‑scrolling kicks in. - Clear Insights: Track time saved and trends with beautiful, native charts (iOS 16+). - Widgets: Start a break or check progress right from your Home or Lock Screen. How It Works 1. Choose apps you find distracting. 2. Start a Focus (now or on a schedule). 3. Your chosen apps are gently shielded during the break. 4. Review insights to fine‑tune your routine and stay consistent. Thoughtfully Designed - Privacy‑First: No accounts, no ads - your data stays on your device. - Native & Lightweight: Built for fast, reliable performance. - Mindful Defaults: Sensible presets to help you start strong without overthinking. Perfect For - Focused work and study sessions. - Tech‑lite mornings and restful evenings. - Reducing social media or news overload. - Parents and caregivers encouraging healthy device habits on shared devices. Privacy & Safety - Built on Apple’s Screen Time framework for secure, system‑level app shielding. - Data stays on your device. - You control what’s shielded and when. Requirements - iPhone or iPad running iOS/iPadOS 16 or later. - Screen Time authorization is required to enable app shielding. A Quick Note Focus shields the apps you select during your breaks. You can always adjust which apps are affected, tweak schedules, or pause/resume with a tap. Take a breath. Take a break. Take back your time with Focus.
