Stop the Doom-Scrolling Turn on Deep Focus and block distracting apps during your session. You choose which ones โ Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, whatever pulls you in. No swiping, no "just a quick look". Just you and your task. Your Focus, Your Village Every session earns you coins. Use them to unlock new characters, build structures on your Focus Island, and watch your village grow โ session by session. Over 25 Collectible Characters From the motivating Panda to the grumpy Troll to the philosophical Blue Pawn โ every character has their own personality, their own lines, and their own animations. Some unlock through focus time, others through streaks or weekly challenges. A Timer That Fits You Classic countdown or endless mode as a stopwatch. With Live Activities on your lock screen and Apple Watch sync, you always know where you stand โ even with your phone in your pocket. Daily Rewards & Challenges Log in daily for increasing rewards. Weekly challenges give you a goal and unlock exclusive content. Streaks & Achievements Keep your streak alive, hit milestones, and collect achievements. Every day counts. iCloud Sync & Apple Watch Your progress syncs across all your devices. Start sessions right from your wrist โ timer sync between iPhone and Apple Watch works both ways. Focus Arc isn't just another timer app with gamification slapped on top. It's an app that genuinely tries to make focus time a little more enjoyable โ with characters that feel like small companions on the way to better habits.
