## What is Bonsai Focus?

Heartwood is a calm focus timer built around a living bonsai garden. Set your phone down, complete focused sessions, and watch a Japanese maple grow from seedling to quiet canopy.

Instead of turning focus into another noisy dashboard, Heartwood gives you a small ritual: choose a session, tend your tree, collect gentle rewards, and let consistency become visible over time.

Features:

- Focus sessions that turn completed time into tree growth
- Garden Walk sessions for optional movement-based progress
- A bonsai garden that changes through seedling, young, and mature stages
- Water, fertilizer, milestones, streaks, and earned inventory rewards
- Optional HealthKit step and walking-speed access for movement rewards and Garden Walk verification
- Optional on-device Screen Time blocking, available without a purchase
- Time-lapse exports to save and share your tree's progress
- A quiet visual style designed for repeated daily use

Heartwood keeps the core loop simple: set the timer, leave your phone alone, and come back to something worth tending.

Step-count and walking-speed data stay on device and are used only for optional movement rewards and Garden Walk verification. Heartwood never sells HealthKit data or uses it for advertising.
