one elsewhere vs Task Focus

one elsewhere is a quiet focus practice disguised as a space flight. Start a session, put your phone down, and stay away from the screen. While you don’t interact with your phone, the flight continues. When you return, the session ends. There’s nothing to manage, nothing to optimize, and nothing to check. Just uninterrupted time — and the habit of choosing focus. Why it works one elsewhere doesn’t try to make you productive. It removes interaction and replaces it with a single, simple rule: stay present. By repeating short sessions of uninterrupted time, you gradually build a real focus habit — one that transfers beyond the app. What you get • One-tap start with a short countdown • Time and virtual distance as a metaphor for progress • Achievements that mark consistency and milestones • Simple stats to reflect on your focus sessions • Unlockable ships to personalize the experience • A minimal, calm interface designed to fade into the background Use one elsewhere while working, studying, reading, writing, training — or anytime you want to be fully present without distractions. Put your phone down. Go elsewhere.

One thing is enough. Task Focus does one thing. It pauses the apps that pull you away, for as long as one task takes. You write down the one thing you are doing, you pick what to pause, and everything else waits. There is no countdown. Not on the screen, not in a notification, not anywhere. A focus ends when you say it is finished — not when a timer decides you failed. WHAT IT DOES • Pauses the apps you choose, using Screen Time. Feeds, timelines, the endless pull-to-refresh — closed until you are done. • Puts the one thing on your Lock Screen and in a widget, so it is always one glance away and never out of sight. • Gives everything back the moment you tap "I'm done". One toggle in Settings takes it back too, any time. • Keeps what you finished, so a week adds up to something. NOTHING HERE IS A TARGET No streaks to break. No score to keep up. No badge for a good week and no guilt for a quiet one. The history is a record, not a report card. FREE, AND PRO Pausing apps is free and always will be. Task Focus Pro is everything the app remembers afterwards: • Every session you finish, kept for good — free keeps this week • What your focus actually adds up to • A profile for each kind of focus, so the right apps pause for the right work Pro opens on its own for seven days, the first time you finish a focus. Nothing to sign up for and nothing to cancel. When the seven days are up, history goes back to the last week, insights to this week, and profiles to one — nothing is deleted, and pausing apps carries on free as always. One payment. No renewal. Nothing to cancel. YOURS TO TAKE WITH YOU Your history follows you between your own devices through your iCloud account, and exports as a file you keep — whatever you use next. Nothing is collected. What you focus on, and what you choose to pause, stay on your device and in your own private iCloud database. We cannot read either one.
