Every focused minute builds a world you can see. Focus sessions, workouts, habits, breathwork and sleep in one app — with app blocking that asks you for a breath instead of slamming a door. No feeds. No streaks shouting at you. Your data stays on your phone. — NEW IN 2.1: ROOM TO BREATHE — NIGHTS. A whole place for winding down, getting back to sleep and steadier mornings — with a fourteen-night strip that reports a spread, not a score. PACE. One tap makes today gentle. One tap stands you down for days. Reminders go quiet, your run holds, nothing breaks. Free, always. TRY IT ONCE, FREE. Three real goes at Pro features. No card, no trial to cancel. THE DESK. Everything you wrote or parked in a session — searchable and exportable, in one place. COMING BACK. After time away, one screen names the gap, shows only totals that cannot go down, and opens a small door. IF YOU STOP PAYING. A plain page: what you keep, what pauses, what stops. Read it before you buy. — THE TURNSTILE — Blocking shouldn't feel like fighting your own phone. Open a blocked app and you meet a gate, not a wall: hold still a moment, or breathe a few cycles. It opens for a few minutes, then closes. You can always turn back — and turning back earns you something. Nothing traps you. Strengthening a block happens at once; easing it off waits for a delay you set. Schedules, per-activity profiles, gate style and pass length are free. Always. — ONE APP, FIVE WAYS TO GROW — • FOCUS. A calm Pomodoro-style timer with Live Activities and a Dynamic Island countdown. Sideways for a wider view. • TRAIN. Log workouts as you go — sets, reps, weight and rest — with trends, records and optional Apple Health sync. • BUILD. Small habits into routines, routines into rituals. Quit what you want gone; a slip is data, not failure. • BREATHE. Guided breathwork, meditations and grounding, plus a First Aid kit for when overwhelm shows up. • REST. Wind-downs, back-to-sleep sessions, mornings that start steady. — MADE FOR REAL DAYS — Easily distracted? The gate catches the reach before the hour vanishes. Studying, anxious, or quitting something? There is a door for each, and no lecture behind it. — WHY IT FEELS DIFFERENT — • Consistency you can recover. Showing up is measured over two weeks, so a missed day nudges it instead of wiping it out. • It forgives out loud. One page lists every rule already protecting you, with your live numbers in it. • One world, not a pile of apps. Focus, fitness, habits, calm and sleep add up instead of scattering across five apps. • A coach that stays on your phone. ATLAS learns your best focus windows and nudges, never lectures. All on-device. • Privacy by default. Works offline. Backup optional. No ads. — FREE & PRO — Free forever: focus sessions, app blocking with schedules and profiles, the Turnstile, gentle days and time away, habits and detox, every breathwork protocol, the First Aid kit, the Desk, workout tracking, unlimited analytics history, missions and ranks, Live Activities, Apple Health sync and private Crew accountability. Pro adds depth — the custom template builder, journeys you chain yourself, premium rituals and journaling, the full audio and meditation libraries, in-workout coaching, body metrics, guided programs, multiple goals with pace projections, the Signal Box gate, Commitment Lock, your weekly deep audit, premium themes and cloud backup. Nothing core is locked away. Your time. Your rules. — SUBSCRIPTION TERMS — Focus Tycoon Pro is an auto-renewing subscription: US$29.99/year after a 14-day free trial, or US$4.99/month.

NIGHTS • A whole new place in Browse for winding down, getting back to sleep, and mornings that start steady — everything sleep-related, finally in one room. • A fourteen-night strip that reports a spread, never a score. It shows you the shape of your nights and refuses to grade them. • A new four-week Sleep Reset programme joins the 14-day Better Sleep one, and Calm rebalances around breath, meditation and reflection. PACE — FOR THE DAYS THAT ASK FOR LESS • Make today gentle. One small thing holds the day. Reminders quiet down, your run holds, your crew never sees a miss. • Or take time away — three days, a week, or until you come back. The app goes quiet, holds everything, and waits. • Both are free, for everyone, forever. There is nothing to buy on that screen. TRY IT ONCE, FREE • Six Pro features can now be used once, for real, at no charge — chained sessions, the template builder, in-workout coaching, session stakes, Commitment Lock and the full weekly briefing. • Three goes in total. No card, no trial to cancel, nothing to remember to switch off. Afterwards you get one plain receipt telling you what it was and what it costs. THE DESK • Everything you have written, parked or left half-finished during a session, in one searchable place — behind your journal passcode, exportable, never uploaded. WHEN YOU COME BACK • Away for a while? You now meet one screen that names the gap, shows only the totals that cannot go down — hours focused, sessions finished, days you showed up — and opens one five-minute door. No streak talk. No paywall. WHAT STILL HOLDS • A new page lists every forgiveness rule already running for you, with your live numbers in it: how your run fades instead of snapping, the freeze you are given rather than sold, the forgiven day on every habit, and why a missed day costs nothing. • Reached from Calm and Habits, on the days you need it. IF YOU STOP PAYING • One plain page, readable before you ever buy, listing exactly what you keep, what pauses and comes back, and what stops. Your own templates always launch. Your data is always exportable. MORE • Build your own journeys — chain two to five sessions with your own breaks — and author sessions with your own questions, writing pads and breath rhythms. (Pro) • Rehearsal: a six-minute Pro session built from your own due cards and open loops. • Take a guided walk after a hard run, or run a session with no clock that still pays honestly for every minute. • Park one line for tomorrow morning and meet it on your widget. • Every template now runs with a session that suits it, instead of one shape for everything. • Over a hundred fixes: the Weekly Drop can actually be claimed and stays claimed, the daily suggestion speaks Spanish, the briefing responds to your feedback, and the Monday reminder quotes a real number. ### 2.0.0 — 2026-08-17 FOCUS TYCOON 2.0 — REDRAWN The app has been rebuilt around one idea: open it, and know what to do next. A NEW WAY AROUND • A dial sits at the centre of the bar. Tap it for Home, hold it to start a session straight away. While a session runs it shows your time left, and takes you back. • Five places instead of a pile of screens: Browse, Crew, Home, Progress, Account. A CALMER HOME • Home leads with a sentence, not a scoreboard — the one thing worth doing next. • Prefer the numbers? Arcade mode is one tap away in Appearance. LIGHT BY DEFAULT • The app is light now, and can follow the time of day on its own — bright while you work, dark at night. • Twenty-two themes, and a high-contrast version of every one of them. PROGRESS, IN ONE SCREEN • Where you stand, what you have covered, and four ladders to climb. • Consistency is now how often you showed up in the last two weeks, not an unbroken run of days. It can dip and recover, so one missed day nudges it instead of resetting it to zero. Your day streak is still there. FIRSTS THAT GET MARKED • ATLAS turns up for your first session, your first week and the days that matter — then gets out of your way. CREW • One closed loop you fill together, with invite links, a QR code, and a nudge when someone shows up for you. ALSO NEW • Turn your phone sideways during a focus session for a wider, calmer view. • App blocking shows exactly what is blocked, why, and when it lifts — and every badge checks the phone, not just the setting. • First Aid is always free. No paywall when you need it most. • Membership is clearer: you will know if a payment needs attention, and access continues while it is sorted out. • Hundreds of smaller fixes to wording, layout, accessibility and Dynamic Type. App blocking, schedules, per-activity profiles, strictness, the Late Train and your full history stay free for everyone. ### 1.0 — 2026-08-01 No release notes. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
