Matchbox

Strike, light, and focus until it burns out. Matchbox is a focus timer and habit tracker built around a retro matchbox. Strike a match and stay focused while that one match slowly burns down โ a primal, beautiful ritual, faithfully recreated on your iPhone. โ A focus timer you strike to start Swipe the match against the striker and it lights with a satisfying, tactile "catch." Then simply focus while the match burns. The countdown quietly fades into the night after a while (tap the screen to peek anytime). Want to stop? Blow into the mic and the flame goes out. โ Match Block: tuck distracting apps into the box While your match is burning, the apps you choose are blocked via Screen Time (Family Controls). Social media and games stay "in the box" until the match burns out โ or until you blow it out. Which apps you pick never leaves your device. โ Ten living night scenes, each with its own sound Moonlit night, snowfield, night rain, firefly lake, starry night, bamboo grove, night sakura, moonlit sea, harvest moon, ink wash. Snow falls, petals swirl, fireflies blink โ sometimes a shooting star crosses the sky. Every scene brings its own ambience: hearth, night wind, rain, waves, crickets and more. โ Habits, one match at a time Complete a daily habit and strike a single match to log it. The matches in your box run down, so your effort literally stacks up as a physical amount. Streaks are always one glance away. โ Matchboxes to collect Vintage, letterpress-style matchbox designs โ Nordic, cafรฉ, retro, sakura and more. The joy of collecting keeps you coming back. โ Shake to hear it Shake your iPhone on the home screen and the box rattles based on how many matches are left. A real matchbox, in the palm of your hand. Free to use. Premium (one-time or weekly, no free trial) unlocks every matchbox design, backdrop and holder, unlimited habits, no ads, and detailed records. โ LINKS - Support: https://tsuzukit.com/contact/ - Terms of Service: https://tsuzukit.com/legal/terms-of-service.html - Privacy Policy: https://tsuzukit.com/legal/privacy-policy.html
