Train of Thought - Focus App

Next stop: Deep Focus. Turn every focus session into a train journey, watch your train travel through beautiful scenery, and leave distractions behind at the station.

A focus timer where every session is a train ride on a real map.

Choose how long you want to focus. Train of Thought finds a real station about that far down the line from your home station. Board, and a 3D train runs the real railway on a live map for exactly that long. When you arrive, you keep a stamped ticket stub in your logbook.

No account. No ads. No tracking. The app never asks for your location.

▶ HOW IT WORKS

• Pick any length, eg. 25 minutes, 50 minutes, 1h30 or 2h30
• The departure board shows a real destination that fits, with its arrival time
• Choose what you're working on, pick a seat, and tear your ticket to board
• Watch the train follow the real line through cities and countryside
• Arrive, and the stub is stamped with the time you focused

▶ BREAKS ARE STATION STOPS

• On rides of 50 minutes or more, the train runs for 25, 35 or 45 minutes
• Then it waits at a station on the line for 2, 3 or 5 minutes
• Pause whenever you need to. Paused time isn't counted

▶ STEP OFF WITHOUT GUILT

• End a ride early and the time you focused still counts
• Your stub is stamped Stepped off and shows how far you got

▶ A RIDE YOU CAN SETTLE INTO

• A live 3D map with buildings and terrain, or satellite imagery
• Dawn, day, dusk and night light, set by the clock or by you
• 21 soundscapes: a coach rumble that follows the train's speed, rain, forest, shore, white, pink and brown noise, soft piano and more
• The screen stays awake, and the sound plays alongside your own music

▶ YOUR LOGBOOK

• Every ride printed month by month on strips of ticket stock
• Time focused, distance, day streak and average trip
• 19 milestones, from First Departure to Border Crossing
• A daily goal, with a progress bar that fills as you ride
• Export your logbook whenever you like

▶ OUTSIDE THE APP

• Widgets for today's focus, your week, your last stub and the journeys that fit the time you have
• A Control Center button that boards a train in one tap

▶ WHAT'S FREE

• Tickets, seats, stubs, breaks and pauses
• Chase and overhead cameras, standard and satellite maps, every time of day
• The Clay, an unbranded study-model train

• Your logbook, all-time figures, 17 milestones and every widget
• iCloud sync

▶ WHAT'S IN PRO

• All 21 soundscapes
• Rain and snow over the map

• Every insight: when you focus best, where your time goes, your lines on a globe
• Purposes of your own
• Your ride on the Lock Screen, in the Dynamic Island and as a StandBy departure board
• Livery stripes, a nameplate and coach count for your train

▶ PRIVATE BY DESIGN

• No account and no sign-up
• No location access: you choose your home station, and the ride is simulated
• No ads and no tracking. The app counts a few things anonymously, like a ride starting, with nothing that identifies you or your device, and you can turn that off in Settings
• Your journeys stay on your device and in your own iCloud. Turn sync off any time

▶ GOOD TO KNOW

• Planning a route needs a connection. Once you've boarded, the train keeps running, and the app downloads the route's map before you leave
• Routes come from OpenStreetMap railway data. Ride times are worked out from line speeds, not taken from timetables
• Train of Thought is a timer, not an app blocker. It won't lock other apps
