Refocus vs Digital Detox Timer

Refocus is an app blocker & website blocker that helps you limit screen time on apps! Refocus is easy to use, yet has powerful screen time control features: ▶ Various ways to restrict or lock apps and block websites. Choose what helps you focus! Block any app or site — from social media and games to messaging and news. ▶ "Strict Mode" feature prevents you from unblocking. Set a passcode, or use an NFC tag, or wait a duration (ex. 30 seconds), or do a copy text challenge, or utilize Pomodoro (limit unblocking to 5 times per day, for 25 minutes each, with a 5-minute cooldown between each unblock). ▶ Block for a specific duration (ex. app timer for 30 minutes). ▶ Block at specific times (ex. every weekday from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM). ▶ Set app limits (ex. after 10 minutes of using Instagram, block it). Set an app time limit! ▶ Hide Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts in Safari. ▶ Block at the location you pick — whether it be home, work or school. ▶ View your daily, weekly and monthly Screen Time analytics. Use Refocus as a screen time tracker! ▶ Mac app that also lets you block apps and websites on macOS. ▶ And more! --- Visit www.refocusapp.co for more information.

How many times did your thumb scroll today? You probably don’t even remember what you were looking at ten minutes ago. Time slips away, and by the next morning you’re thinking, “Why did I waste it again?” It’s time to stop pretending. It’s time to face reality. “Digital Detox Timer” is a no-escape digital detox app. The moment you touch or move your phone, time stops. Every second you keep your eyes off the screen, your focus becomes visible. Regret it again tomorrow — or face it right now. The choice is yours. ■ The More You Leave Your Phone, the More Time Moves The rules are simple. Start the game, and the timer begins. Touch or move your phone — and the timer instantly stops. That means: • Leave your phone on the desk • Don’t look at the screen • Don’t pick it up Only the time you truly stay away from your phone is recorded as focus time. “Don’t touch it, time moves.” “Touch it, time stops.” This brutally simple mechanic exposes unconscious phone addiction and naturally pulls your attention back to the real world. ■ What It Means to Truly Focus While the timer is running, you’ll naturally start asking yourself: “What should I do right now?” • Read a book • Study • Focus on work • Think • Do absolutely nothing Anything is fine. What matters is directing your attention to something other than your phone. It may start with just a few minutes. But over time, your ability to focus will grow. This isn’t a detox that forces restraint. It’s about realizing — almost without noticing — that you’ve stepped away from your phone. ■ Test Your Focus on the Global Leaderboard Your recorded focus time is reflected in a global ranking. Country, age, and background don’t matter. Only one thing counts: how long you stayed away from your phone. • How focused were you today? • Did you beat yesterday’s time? • Where do you rank in the world? Turn focus into a game. Compete with others — or simply with yourself. How far you go is up to you. ■ Your Focus Time Is Saved as History All focus sessions are saved automatically. You can look back and see: • How long you focused • How you felt • What you worked on With the memo feature, you can also record insights from each session. “I focused well while reading today.” “I couldn’t stay focused in the afternoon.” “Ambient sounds really helped.” By reviewing these records, you’ll discover your own ideal focus style. ■ Create a Focus-Friendly Environment with Ambient Sounds The app includes multiple ambient sounds. • When you want silence • When you need to block distractions • When you want a calm atmosphere Use it as focus background music to dive deeper into your work. The sounds are subtle and unobtrusive, designed to support your thinking — not interrupt it. ■ Works as a Desk Clock Too With its simple design, the app also works as a desk clock. • On your desk • By your bedside • Next to your workspace You can check the time without notifications or temptations. “To avoid touching your phone, you leave your phone.” That paradox is built into this app. ■ Ultra-Minimal Design Everything unnecessary has been stripped away. • No registration • No complicated settings • Start instantly Open the app and press start. That’s it. Because the goal isn’t to focus on the app — it’s to focus on real life. ■ Recommended For • Anyone who wants to reduce phone usage • People who want better focus • Students and professionals • Those starting digital detox • Anyone who wants a simple focus timer • People who like building habits through games ■ One Last Thing This app doesn’t take your time. It gives your time back to you. The moment you put your phone down, your focus begins. So — how many minutes can you focus today? Give it a try.
