PawFocus turns focus sessions into a playful cat-collection game. Set custom timers, tag each session, and keep your phone perfectly still—any shake triggers a warning, and a second movement ends your session. Collect black cats for success and white cats for failure each week. Features 1. Custom Timers & Tags Create sessions of any length and label them (e.g. “Study,” “Reading”). 2. Gyroscope Movement Detection First shake shows a warning; shake again and the session fails. 3. Weekly Cat Collection Earn black cats on success or white cats on failure to build your weekly menagerie. 4. Progress Reports Visualize daily, weekly, or monthly trends with intuitive charts. 5. Themes & Dark Mode Choose light, dark, or custom color schemes to match your style.
