Read full descriptionHide full description
FocusWindow is an immersive focus tool. Opening the app feels like opening a window to another world. Ocean waves by the shore, views from a moving train, a gentle forest breeze, city lights at nightβ¦ With immersive scene videos, focusing becomes calm and natural instead of dull and forced. Whether you're studying, writing, coding, reading, or simply reflecting, Focus Window helps you enter a deeper state of concentration with ease. An Immersive Focus Experience Unlike traditional Pomodoro timers, Focus Window creates a focused atmosphere through immersive scenes. It feels like sitting: by a seaside window in a mountain cabin on a moving train during a quiet rainy night Let time flow naturally while you focus. Key Features Focus Timer Clear timing and progress display. Start and end focus sessions anytime. Immersive Window Scenes Window views such as airplane windows, cruise ship cabins, and multiple weather and time-of-day atmospheres. Ambient Sound Mixer Combine sounds like ocean waves, rain, wind, and campfire to create your ideal focus environment. Focus Tags Add tags to each focus session (work, study, reading, meditation, rest, creativity). History & Statistics Review your focus sessions, total time, and long-term trends. 3D Heatmap Turn your focus data into a beautiful 3D heatmap visualization. STL Export Export your 3D heatmap as an STL file to save or even 3D print your focus history. Your Apple ID account will be charged upon confirmation of subscription. Subscription automatically renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage and cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings.

Glance
Read full descriptionHide full description
Glance reads whatever is on your iPhone screen and answers out loud β so a foreign app, a confusing checkout, or an unfamiliar form is never a wall again. Open any app β an overseas shopping app, a foreign-language menu, a settings page you've never seen β tap once, ask out loud, and Glance answers in the language you choose. No typing, no screenshots to share, no copy-pasting into another app. WHAT GLANCE CAN DO β’ Shop smarter abroad β "this item is out of stock, which one should I pick?" Glance compares the price per unit, flags what's worth it, and recommends the better buy. β’ Translate on the fly β read a menu, product page, or web page in any of 30+ languages, instantly, in your own voice. β’ Explain anything visible β what does this button do? what is this error? what is this field asking for? β’ Guide you step by step β "where do I tap to check out?" Glance points to the exact spot. β’ Saved history β every screen session is kept, so you can revisit any translation or answer later. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap the green button on the home screen. 2. iOS asks you to "Start Broadcast" β that's just Apple's term for screen-sharing. Glance reads your screen privately to answer. 3. Open any app and speak. Glance replies out loud in the language you picked. 4. Stop anytime from the red status bar at the top of the screen. PRIVACY YOU CAN SEE β’ Glance only reads your screen while a session is active. The red recording indicator at the top of iOS makes that visible at all times. β’ Sessions are stored locally on your device, not in the cloud. β’ We don't sell or share your data. LANGUAGES 30+ languages including English, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, Russian, Arabic, Hindi, Vietnamese, Thai, Indonesian, Malay, Turkish, Dutch, Polish, and more. PRICING β’ Free trial β try Glance with no commitment. β’ Glance Pro β 1 hour of screen time per day. β’ Glance Max β 5 hours per day.
