Hardcore Focus

Less phone. More life.

Your phone is stealing your time. Hardcore Focus helps you take it back — block the apps that distract you, do real deep work, and build habits that fill the time you reclaim. No vanity metrics, no endless lists. Three things that actually move your life forward: block, focus, repeat.

BLOCK THE NOISE Shield blocks your most distracting apps with Screen Time — on a schedule, during a focus session, or always on. You choose how hard it is to get back in:

• No Bypass — locked is locked
• 15-Minute Bypass — one short, deliberate exception
• The Gatekeeper — argue your case to a skeptical on-device AI before it grants a timed exception. Weak excuse? Denied.

DO DEEP WORK Start a focus session in one tap and work for as long as you want — no countdown, just an open timer that runs until you're done. Block distracting apps for the session, track every time your attention slips, and watch your daily focus goal fill up. Pause, resume, and keep the screen awake while you're in the zone.

BUILD HABITS THAT STICK Track daily habits and routines by time of day. Check them off, count repetitions, or run timed habits with a built-in timer. Some habits track themselves — link them to Apple Health or to time spent in productive apps. Keep your streak alive and unlock achievements as the days add up.

EVERYTHING ELSE

• Tasks & lists — plan your day and import from Apple Reminders
• Apple Watch — start sessions, complete habits, and check streaks from your wrist
• Siri & Shortcuts — "Start a focus session," "Mark off my habit," hands-free
