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

- 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.
