Thicket — Focus Timer

Plant a tree and leave your phone alone.

Lock it, pocket it, put it face down — the tree keeps growing. Open something else and it dies. That is the whole idea, and it works because the stake is real.

WHAT GROWS

Every finished session becomes a tree in your grove. Days fill up, months fill out, and a year of attention turns into somewhere you can actually look at.

Seventeen species across five regions, and you cannot buy a single one. Each is earned by focusing — some by total hours, some by finishing long sessions, some found by chance in the ones over ninety minutes. Your trees, your garden, all of it earned.

DAY AND NIGHT

After dark the grove gets a moon, stars and moonlight on the leaves. Not a dark mode — a time of day. It follows your phone, or you can hold it at night all day if you like.

LOCKING YOUR PHONE IS FOCUSING

Most focus apps cannot tell putting your phone down apart from picking up another app. Thicket can. A locked screen is exactly what it asks of you, so nothing is lost. Wandering into another app is what it is there to stop — and you get a warning with time to come back.

QUIETLY BUILT

· No account, no sign-up, no server · No analytics, no advertising, no tracking of any kind · Backup to your own iCloud, so losing a phone is not losing a year · Your whole history and every statistic, free forever

THE FULL VERSION

Free gives you the timer, deep focus, the lock screen timer, all your statistics, iCloud backup, and four species to plant.

The full version opens the rest of the catalogue: all seventeen species, all five regions, the whole garden. You still earn every one of them by focusing — buying opens the catalogue, it never plants a tree for you.

Thicket is made by one person. If something is wrong, write in and a real person answers.
