About

Peapod

Focus, and your pea grows. Peapod is a focus timer with a heart: a tiny pea that grows every minute you stay focused. It's free, with no login. HOW IT WORKS 1. Name the one thing you'll work on. 2. Start a focus session: 15 to 120 minutes. Keep Peapod open — locking your screen is fine. 3. Wander off to other apps and it counts as a distraction. In Hard mode, leaving for 30 seconds ends the session. 4. Finish, rate your focus with one tap, and watch your pea grow. STAY HONEST • Peapod notices when you leave mid-session — each distraction costs coins • Giving up takes a 30-second pause, enough to change your mind • Locking your screen never counts against you, and short breaks under 15 seconds are forgiven A PET THAT NEVER DIES • Grows from Seed to Golden Pod — your first evolution comes after your very first session • Fully grown? Plant it and hatch a mystery seed: 8 peas to collect, from Common to Legendary • A widget with attitude: your pea dozes off, stares, or celebrates depending on your day • Give up early and your pea is sad for an hour. That's it. No guilt trips. BUILT ON WHAT ACTUALLY WORKS • Insights: minutes per day, daily goal, completion rate, your best time of day, where your focus went. All free, all on your iPhone • Streaks with a weekly freeze, so one bad day doesn't undo a month • Seasonal challenges with limited rewards FOCUS DUO • Pair with one friend using a simple code — no accounts • See each other's pea, cheer each other on, and grow a shared streak when you both focus that day MORE • Live Activity and Dynamic Island countdown • Home and Lock Screen widgets, with a one-tap Start button • "Start focus in Peapod" with Siri and Shortcuts FREE MEANS FREE • Unlimited sessions, forever • No ads • Peapod Pro is optional: 2× coins, lucky seeds, exclusive skins, app icons, an extra streak freeze and a large widget PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no email • Export your data any time from Settings Peapod Pro subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period.
