You pick up your phone to do one thing. 40 minutes later, you've done everything except that thing. Lose 4 hours a day to your phone and that's 120 hours a month: enough to finish the thing you keep putting off. Focus locks your distracting apps and puts those hours into it. Finished in weeks. Not someday. NAME THE THING Write the one thing you keep pushing to tomorrow. Focus shows how many hours it needs and how many weeks it takes at your pace, so it stops being "someday". LOCK YOUR APPS, THEN WORK Start a block and the apps you chose are locked until it ends. The screen shows what this hour is going into. No pause button, no quick peek. LOCKED BEFORE YOU REACH Set the times you usually lose it, like after work or late at night. Focus locks your apps at those times by itself, even when the app is closed. (Pro) SEE THE HOURS COME BACK Every block adds to your "taken back" time. Your week shows your screen time next to the hours you put into your thing and the pieces you finished. FINISH IN WEEKS Focus keeps your finish date in weeks: on pace, ahead or behind. Miss a day and the next block picks up where you left off. BUILT FOR BRAINS THAT DRIFT One task at a time. One clear next step. Nothing to set up before you can start. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your screen time stays on your iPhone. Focus uses Apple's Screen Time framework and never sees which apps you use or for how long. Your tasks never leave your devices except through your own iCloud. FREE AND PRO Your first 3 locked blocks are free. Pro unlocks unlimited locked blocks and scheduled locks. Choose weekly, yearly, or Forever with a single payment. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. Manage or cancel in your App Store account settings. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://www.bytenpixels.com/privacy

Verdict

The call

Focus and Brewfy are too close to call on the numbers: across 5 compared parameters โ€” price, ads, in-app purchases and device support among them โ€” neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.
