Focus Dots vs DayMosaic

Focus Dots is a simple focus timer. Set a duration. Press start. Focus on one thing. There are no streaks to maintain. No productivity analytics. No pressure to optimize yourself. Finish a session and earn a dot. Over time, those dots become quiet records of the moments you chose to focus. Use it for study sessions, deep work, reading, writing, or any task that needs your full attention. Whether you’re working, studying, or just trying to stay distraction-free, Focus Dots helps you stay present.  I built this because I kept getting distracted by focus tools that tried to do too much. This one does less.

DayMosaic is a calm daily planner that helps you see and feel where your time goes. It combines a daily calendar, a focused today list, visual task blocks, voice capture, and a Day Story that helps you understand how your day unfolded. Instead of managing your day as an endless to-do list, DayMosaic turns each task into a visible piece of space. Small tasks stay small. Bigger tasks take up more room. Time becomes less abstract, and your day becomes easier to read before it slips away.
