Degauss
Read full descriptionHide full description
The world is too loud. Itβs time to Degauss. Degauss is not just a focus timer; it is a ritual. In an age of constant notifications and dopamine loops, Degauss invites you to return to silence. HOW IT WORKS Set Your Time: Choose your deep work duration using the tactile analog dial. Face Down: Place your phone screen down to start the "Degaussing" process. Focus: While you work, study, or read, the app builds a unique digital crystal in the background. Collect: Complete the session to reveal your Artifactβa unique geometric gem with AI-generated lore. Fail: Lift your phone too early, and the field becomes unstable. Persist, or the crystal shatters. FEATURES Tactile Focus: Analog rotary dial and haptic feedback for a physical connection to time. Face-Down Mechanic: The only way to progress is to physically disconnect from your screen. Generative Artifacts: Every successful session rewards you with a unique, collectible crystal card (Common to Mythic rarity). Deep Analytics: Track your focus trends with Weekly Charts and Heatmaps. Dark Mode First: An OLED-black interface designed to save battery and reduce eye strain. Privacy Centric: No accounts, no cloud tracking. Your data stays on your device. WHY DEGAUSS? Productivity shouldn't feel like a spreadsheet. Degauss makes "doing nothing" feel tangible. By turning your time into a collection of artifacts, it gamifies the act of reclaiming your attention. Escape the noise. Find your signal.
