Hardcore Focus vs Gaze

Hardcore Focus blocks distracting apps with Screen Time, then runs a focus session toward a daily goal. Habits next to it. No account. No VPN. Three things: Focus, Habits, and Shield. No to-do list. No calendar. SHIELD — BLOCK THE NOISE Block the apps that steal your day with Apple’s native Screen Time API. On a schedule, during a focus session, or always on. You choose how hard it is to get back in: • No Bypass — locked is locked • 15-Minute Bypass — one short, deliberate exception FOCUS — DO DEEP WORK One button. Tap it and work until you’re done — no countdown, no 25-minute cycle. Keep the screen awake. Optional Apple Music focus playlist. Watch your daily focus goal fill up on the ring. Pause when life happens. Live Activity and Dynamic Island keep the timer visible. HABITS — FILL THE TIME YOU GET BACK Stack habits into routines by time of day. Check them off, count reps, or run a timed habit. Workouts, walks, and mindful minutes can auto-complete from Apple Health. Keep the streak on the habits that matter. ALSO • Apple Watch — start sessions and complete habits from your wrist • Siri & Shortcuts • Widgets, Live Activities & Dynamic Island • On-device insights into your focus patterns (on your phone) • Apple Music focus playlists inside the session • iCloud sync across iPhone, iPad & Apple Watch — no Hardcore Focus account PRIVATE BY DESIGN Zero data collection. Anything you sync stays in your own iCloud. WHO IT’S FOR People who already know which apps steal the day and keep opening them anyway. Block, focus, show up for the habits.

Delete those cute little Pomodoro timers. They politely remind you. We execute you. Gaze is not a productivity app - it's a digital prison cell. The moment you hit Start, the countdown begins. Your only job on this device is absolute focus. Switch apps, reply to a text, even swipe down for notifications - instant FAIL. No exceptions. No excuses. No second chances. [CORE TORTURE & DARK AESTHETICS] Absolute Stare: Pure minimalist void-black design. Screen stays awake forever, becoming the coldest cyber-warden on your desk. Brutal Execution: Leave the app and a massive blood-red FAILED stamp slams the screen + heavy haptic blast. A real physical slap for your weakness. Deep Space Brainwash (Pro): Not birds or rain. This is a crushing, mechanical spaceship drone that drowns reality and welds your brain to the desk. Desk Monitor Mode: Native iPad full-screen optimized. Turn your idle tablet into an intimidating cyberpunk surveillance toy. Built for: Chronic procrastinators, exam warriors, ADHD minds, and dark aesthetic addicts. Pricing: Zero subscription BS. One-time purchase. Lifetime unlock of all premium dark wardens and intense isolation tracks. Think your focus is unbreakable? Prove it.
