ADHD? DISTRACTIONS? JUST LAZY? It doesn't matter. Stop making excuses. You know the drill: You sit down to study, and 5 minutes later, you’re scrolling social media. Your willpower is weak. You need consequences. Hush or Blush is the high-stakes focus timer that doesn't ask you nicely. It forces you to LOCK IN. KILL YOUR PROCRASTINATION This is the ultimate tool for students, ADHD brains, and anyone who needs a kick in the pants to get work done. • LOCK IN: Set your time. • ACTIVATE: Hit the button. Your phone is now a "Live Grenade." • DON'T MOVE: Lock the screen and back off. Don't try anything else or... BOOM! Public shame. • SURVIVE: Complete the session to save your dignity. DO YOU DARE TO USE THIS IN A LIBRARY? If you try to leave the app, unlock your phone, or try to cheat during a session, the app instantly punishes you with a loud, embarrassing sound of your choice. The Challenge: Can you sit in a quiet room for 45 minutes without triggering the alarm and having everyone stare at you? FEATURES - The "Shame" Engine Once a study session starts, your phone is a minefield. Don't even think about picking it up until the session ends, or you will be punished with an embarrassment of your choice—Sirens, Screams, and more. - The Mystery Crate (Rewards) You want dopamine?

Numbers cause anxiety. Watching a clock count down kills your flow. Timefall transforms your focus sessions into a calming, kinetic experience. Feel time physically through falling spheres driven by a real physics engine. THE SCIENCE OF VISUAL FOCUS According to Attention Restoration Theory (ART), observing gentle, predictable motion—like flowing water or falling sand—triggers "Soft Fascination." Timefall’s physics engine mimics this natural phenomenon. By replacing stressful ticking numbers with smooth kinetic physics, your brain avoids the anxiety of a countdown and maintains a state of deep work longer. DEEP APPLE ECOSYSTEM INTEGRATION • Dynamic Island & Live Activities: Your focus progress is always visible without unlocking your phone. • Apple Health Sync: Automatically log your sessions as "Mindful Minutes" to close your daily rings. • Hybrid AlarmKit System: Enterprise-grade reliability. Your break alarm will ring exactly on time, every time. BUILT FOR ADHD & VISUAL THINKERS • Cures "Time Blindness" by making time a physical volume you can see. • Eliminates the stress of standard rigid timers. • Tangible progress feedback keeps the dopamine flowing. • Visual timer with real physics. Each second becomes a falling ball you can see and feel. • Pomodoro for deep work. Custom focus & break intervals with full-screen, reliable alarms. WHY TIMEFALL - Reduce anxiety by seeing time flow naturally, not just counting down. - Ideal for visual thinkers and those who find standard timers stressful. - Turn focus into a tangible, satisfying process. PERFECT FOR - Pomodoro technique & Deep Work - ADHD / Neurodivergent minds needing visual cues - Studying & Exam prep - Meditation & Mindfulness practice - Interval training MINIMALIST DESIGN Beautiful interface that doesn't distract. Just you and your time. PRIVACY BY DESIGN Your session history and analytics stay on your device. Purchase history may be processed to manage subscriptions and restores. No tracking.
