The only iOS Pomodoro timer that actually blocks distracting apps using Screen Time API. Build unstoppable focus streaks across all your devices.
Every time you check social media "just for a second," you lose 23 minutes of deep work. Your phone isn't helping you focus—it's sabotaging you.
Average person checks phone 96 times/day. Every notification breaks your concentration.
It takes 23 minutes to regain deep focus after a distraction. One scroll = 23 lost minutes.
You think you worked 8 hours, but only 3 were productive. The rest? Social media rabbit holes.
Other apps just send you notifications to "stay focused." FocuTime actually locks distracting apps using iOS Screen Time API—the same technology parents use to control their kids' devices.
Create recurring focus schedules that automatically block distracting apps at specific times—even when FocuTime isn't open. Perfect for study hours, deep work blocks, or digital detox.
