Features & Capabilities

Level up your focus! Kept is the ultimate gamified productivity timer. Block apps, stay consistent, and unlock legendary rewards for your virtual companion.

Stop the endless scroll and start building momentum.

Meet Kept, the coziest focus timer and app blocker designed for neurodivergent brains, cozy gamers, and anyone who wants to feel proud of what they accomplish each day.

Say goodbye to punishing, stressful productivity apps. With Kept, your focus is tied to Ax, a sleepy little axolotl who needs your help to thrive. When you put your phone down and tackle your tasks, Ax levels up. If you lose your streak... well, his room might get a little dusty.

Whether you are studying for finals, crushing your work goals, or just trying to finish your daily side-quests, Kept makes focusing feel genuinely rewarding.

WHY YOU WILL LOVE KEPT:

ZERO-WILLPOWER APP BLOCKING Finding it hard to start? Kept uses powerful, system-level app blocking to strictly lock your distracting apps while your timer runs. You literally cannot open them, making it incredibly easy to stay on track and get your work done.

EARN REWARDING MYSTERY BOXES Every minute you spend focusing earns you XP. Trade your hard-earned XP for Mystery Boxes to unlock adorable cosmetics for Ax. Will you pull a Common Dino Onesie, or beat the odds for the Legendary Stardust Realm? It turns hard work into a fun, relaxing collection game.

COZY GAMIFICATION Keep your streak alive to keep Ax's room sparkling clean. Watch the room change from day to night as you build a bulletproof routine and hit your daily goals.

AX ON YOUR DYNAMIC ISLAND Ax stays with you even when your phone is locked. Check your Live Activities to see him cheering you on while your timer ticks down, keeping you anchored to your task without needing to unlock your screen.

VISUAL SCRAPBOOKING Snap a quick photo and log how you felt after a deep work session. Over time, you will build a beautiful visual journal proving exactly how much you have achieved.

KEPT PRO (OPTIONAL) Kept is free to download and use! But if you want to supercharge your journey, Kept Pro gives you a permanent Double XP Boost on every single focus session, plus instant access to exclusive Legendary realms and skins.

Ready to defeat the procrastination boss? Download Kept, hatch your egg, and let's get things done together!

User Reviews

I find myself gravitating toward Kept not only for studying and employing the Pomodoro method, but also for tasks that ask for a lot of focus. As someone with ADHD setting these timers allows me to have realistic expectations for focusing, but also makes it hard to give up because of Ax. 10/10 recommend super helpful!!

If you’re looking to stay locked in and actually get things done, Kept is the best focus buddy on the App Store. I’ve tried every productivity app and focus timer out there, but this is the only one that actually helps me maintain deep work sessions without getting distracted. The interface is incredibly clean and minimalist, which is exactly what you need when you're trying to avoid the 'scroll trap.' It’s a game-changer for students or anyone with ADHD who needs help staying on task. It makes hitting your goals feel effortless. If you want to optimize your workflow and stop procrastinating, you need to download Kept. 10/10 recommendation!
