Backwards vs Focal

Backwards Clock is a task management app dedicated to visualizing deadline management. Inspired by the Temporal Motivation Theory (TMT), clear deadlines are the main driving force for our actions. Therefore, Backwards Clock harnesses the power of deadlines, and helps us combat procrastination and complete tasks. In addition, our perception of time also affects our behaviour. Unlike vague memory or facing a distant date, Backwards Clock visualizes the remaining time of tasks and presents it in a simple timeline view. These visual cues help us master time and prevent forgetfulness, panic, and unpreparedness. Design Backwards Clock abandons bloated features and uses the minimalist design language to make task management no longer a task. Features - Manage all tasks on a single timeline. - Preset reminders and reusable reminders. - Focus on one task at a time. - Cross-timezone management, each task can set the timezone independently, and the app automatically converts. - Add notes and detailed information to the tasks. - Using widgets to track tasks effortlessly. - Quickly postpone or advance when plans change. - iCloud synchronization to ensure data security. Backwards Clock is a one-time purchase app. Your initial payment guarantees lifetime access, including all future updates and upgrades, with no further costs.

See the time you have left. Focal turns a countdown into something you can look at: a colored disk that shrinks as your time runs out — the same idea as the timer on a classroom wall, in your pocket, on your lock screen, and on your desk while the phone charges. ONE THING AT A TIME A routine in Focal is a chain of short steps, each with its own length. Focal shows you the step you are on and nothing else, then moves to the next one by itself. Morning launch, shutdown, cleaning sprint, a study block — start with ten ready-made routines or build your own. TIME YOU CAN SEE, EVERYWHERE • Full-screen timer in three shapes: disk, bar, or pie • Live Activity and Dynamic Island — the countdown keeps running on your lock screen • Home and Lock Screen widgets for your next routine • Put the phone on its side while charging and StandBy becomes a desk timer • Start from Siri, the Action Button, or Control Center BUILT FOR THE WAY ATTENTION ACTUALLY WORKS • Gentle haptics at the halfway mark and in the final minute • When time is up the clock keeps counting, and Focal taps you on the shoulder at five and fifteen minutes — the alarm for when you fall into something too deep • Add a minute without losing your place • Eight themes, including high-contrast and a quiet monochrome one NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE. No account. No cloud. Nothing you make ever leaves your phone — the timer works in airplane mode, because it never needed the internet.
