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.

Simbo keeps your focus sessions calm, simple, and rewarding. Pomodoro made easy: Start focus blocks, choose short or long breaks, and stay on pace with gentle reminders. Simulation-style progress: Every finished session earns in-app coins you can spend later—there are no real-money purchases. Coin economy: Save your focus coins, stake them in the in-app bank, and watch the balance grow with passive interest as you keep studying. Interest system: Daily streaks boost the rate; logging in on time helps you collect extra rewards. Home upgrades: Visit the “Room” tab to buy decorations, furniture, and even invite special companions—each item marks a new productivity milestone. Student-built for everyone: Designed by a student who needed a simple focus buddy; no ads, no clutter, just a clean timer. Offline first, optional sync: Works entirely offline. Turn on iCloud sync to carry your coins, stats, and room design to other Apple devices. Start a session, earn coins for every block you finish, invest wisely, decorate your virtual space, and stay motivated day after day.
