## What is FocusMon?

Put your phone down – and catch monsters for it. FocusMon is a Pomodoro and focus timer that turns your study time into a monster-collecting game. Start a focus session, a rift opens, and as long as you stay focused, monsters step through for you to catch.

Leave the app to use your phone and the session breaks – the rift closes empty. Every minute away from your phone becomes progress: studying, homework, exam prep or deep work.

STAY FOCUSED
• A focus timer for studying, school, college and deep work – set your own session length.
• Your session only runs while you stay in the app. Leave early and you walk away with nothing.
• Live Activity keeps the timer on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island.
• Turn screen time into a growing collection.

COLLECT, EVOLVE, TRADE
• Over 100 unique monsters, each with three evolution stages, plus rare Mythic monsters.
• Shards earned from your focus time level up and evolve your monsters.
• Trade monsters with friends and complete your Archive.

BATTLE FRIENDS AND PLAYERS WORLDWIDE
• Turn-based battles with monsters trained by your focus time.
• Play casually against friends or climb the ranked ladder from Bronze to Champion.

FOCUS TOGETHER
• Make a focus pact with a friend: one shared goal, and rewards for both of you when you finish.
• See which of your friends are focusing right now.

A REASON TO COME BACK EVERY DAY
• Buddy monsters level up with every session and unlock exclusive looks and items.
• Daily goals, a weekly board and the Rift Pass reward consistent focus.
• Season 2: Frost Season with the mythic Kryothys – free for everyone.

Made for anyone who wants less phone time: students, people with ADHD, and everyone who finds it easier to focus when it feels like a game.

It's never too late to spend less time on your phone.

### 5/5 — Great app to keep you off your phone

*2026-09-07*

I found this app very helpful in incentivizing putting down the phone and leaving it there more regularly. It’s great fun collecting the different monsters and seeing them grow and evolve. The developer is also adding new content to this fairly regularly, which I really appreciate.

### 1.2.3 — 2026-10-26

Minor improvements

### 1.2.2 — 2026-10-20

Season 2: Frost Season

The Frost Season starts on November 1 with a brand new Rift Pass.

• Kryothys, the new mythic frost leviathan, waits at tier 50. Free for everyone.
• 50 tiers of monsters, skins, boosts, avatars and more
• Season skin "Aurora Sanctum" for Glacirn at tier 45
• New Rift Pass avatars from tier 8
• The pass is a scrolling list again: free on the left, premium on the right, and the rift in between opens with your focus time.
• When a season ends, you get a recap of your season: tier reached, focus time and rewards collected.
• Ranked Season 2 with new frost frames, avatars and the Borealisk skin "Rimecrown"

The deeper your focus, the closer the season's myths.

### 1.2.1 — 2026-09-15

21 new monster families
3 of them show up in your focus sessions right away. The other 18 arrive over time: from October 1 until the end of February, a new Rift Debut event starts every two weeks and brings new families with it.

Events at a glance
• The event preview shows which new families come with an event
• The calendar now reaches the last planned event, and "Upcoming" shows every event still to come
• New families appear in the Archive as a silhouette with their date one month before their debut
• New: a notification when a debut starts. You can turn it off in Settings under "Events & Debuts"

Balancing
• Eternal Shards now come at a steady rate for your focus time. Unfinished minutes are saved for next time
• The Rift Pass counts your real focus time, without the streak multiplier. The season is built around roughly 90 minutes of focus a day

Also
• Pop-ups no longer pile on top of each other when you open the app
• Type and rarity now sit right next to the monster in the detail view
• Passive effects now respect immunity to venom and bleeding
• Plus smaller fixes

### 1.2.0 — 2026-09-10

Minor improvements and bug fixes.

### 1.1.9 — 2026-09-09

We made a few improvements and bug fixes to make FocusMon feel even smoother. Thanks for playing – enjoy!
