Consensus vs SmartFocus

Consensus is a brand-new app that helps writers process and organize the feedback they receive on their work. Using a simple two-step system, it encourages them to: 1) Distill the core ideas of each reader’s feedback into brief summaries 2) Group similar feedback using tags In doing so, a consensus is reached, helping to: • Validate suspicions about problem areas • Expose blind spots • Increase big-picture focus and reduce overthinking • Stimulate idea growth for new changes After the consensus has been found, what remains is a blueprint for future revisions with all feedback and files in one place. Other noteworthy features include the ability to: • Track progress on notes by flagging, prioritizing, and marking them complete • Sync work to iCloud for seamless access across all of your devices • Store originals and reader feedback files within a project • Link notes to their source file • Create profiles for readers and save their contact information • Divide large projects into subprojects for easier management • Organize feedback by section or draft Though built for writers, Consensus works for any creative field (and beyond). Privacy is our priority. Consensus never accesses personal data or files. Technical crash reports are the only information shared with us to ensure a bug-free experience.

YOU ALREADY KNOW THE FEELING You sit down to work. You open your phone for one thing — and 40 minutes later you're deep in social media, watching clips, scrolling through nothing. It's not your fault. These apps are designed to keep you hooked. SmartFocus blocks distracting apps the moment you activate Focus mode — so you can actually get things done. ------ THE PROBLEM WITH WILLPOWER Every day, you tell yourself you'll stay focused. But then: - You pick up your phone "just to check" - One notification leads to ten minutes of scrolling - You open Instagram "for a second" and lose half an hour - By the end of the day, you wonder where the time went Sound familiar? Willpower alone doesn't work against apps built to be addictive. You need a system. ------ HOW SMARTFOCUS WORKS SmartFocus connects directly with iOS Focus modes. When you activate a Focus mode — Work, Study, Sleep, or any custom one — SmartFocus instantly blocks the apps you've chosen. No delays. No workarounds. Just a clean shield screen reminding you: you're in focus mode. 1. Create a filter preset (e.g., "Work", "Study", "Deep Focus") 2. Choose which apps and categories to block 3. Link it to your iOS Focus mode That's it. Focus on, distractions off. ------ CUSTOM FILTERS FOR EVERY MOMENT Not all focus is the same. During work, you might block social media but keep messaging open. During study, you might block everything except reference apps. At night, you might block games and news. SmartFocus lets you create unlimited filter presets — each with its own name, color, and app selection. Switch between them effortlessly as your day changes. ------ BLOCK APPS AND ENTIRE CATEGORIES Don't waste time picking apps one by one. SmartFocus lets you block entire categories at once — all social media, all games, all entertainment — with a single tap. Or get specific and choose individual apps. Your call. ------ THE SHIELD SCREEN When you try to open a blocked app, you won't see the app. Instead, you'll see a calm shield screen telling you exactly which filter is active. A simple reminder that you chose to focus — and a gentle nudge to get back on track. No guilt. No lectures. Just clarity. ------ BUILT FOR PRIVACY SmartFocus uses Apple's Screen Time framework. Your data stays on your device. We never see which apps you use, which ones you block, or how you spend your time. Your focus is your business. ------ PERFECT FOR - Students who need to lock in during exams and study sessions - Remote workers fighting the pull of social media at home - Professionals who want distraction-free deep work blocks - Parents managing their own screen habits - Anyone trying to build healthier digital routines - People with ADHD looking for external structure ------ WHAT MAKES SMARTFOCUS DIFFERENT - Native iOS Focus integration — works with the system, not against it - Instant blocking — no timers, no delays, no friction - Custom presets — different rules for different moments - Category blocking — block all social media with one tap - Beautiful shield screen — calm, not punishing - Completely private — all data stays on your device ------ GET STARTED FREE Download SmartFocus and set up your first filter in under a minute.
