worth the money

i spent the money for the exopass, to unlock all the features - the one time payment is genuinely worth it in my opinion, i lock in so much more and the hardcore feature stops me from going on my phone while working. 10/10

このドット感がかわいい♡

ただのタイマーただのストップウォッチじゃなくて、自分の使った時間で成長していく星が、自分の子みたいで愛着がわきます♡♡
何個か星を育成するにつれて、色んな種類を選べてちょっとゲーム感があって飽き性な人でも続けられそう!
今インスタのストーリーに乗せて自分の進捗状況や、自分の星自慢をすることが流行ってます!
それにカレンダーや、プロジェクトを何個も作る機能があって、タスクをメモすることや、どの瞬間でやるのか、やったのかが分かりやすくなってもっと使いやすいです!
それに他のアプリにはないガチャ機能があって、自分のゲーム欲がここで抑えられました!

Best focusing app

IIve tried many focusing apps before Exocus, and this one is perfect. I’ve been using the app since I discovered it and I will never switch to a different one!

Awesome

the best focus app ive found yet

Lots of potential and worth it

The game has a very streamlined feel to it. It is completely free to use and the in app purchases are only for people who want a little more out of it than others. The planets are reasonably attainable and satisfying to collect. My only complaint is that there isn’t as much variety in the planets beyond color for the most part.
