FocusCamp is a cozy campfire to rest by on the way to wherever you're headed a place to gather your thoughts and settle into the work that matters. Some days, focusing on your own just isn't easy. On those days, put down the apps that pull you away and pull up a seat by the same campfire as a friend. No talking. No competing. Just knowing someone's there beside you is enough to focus a little longer. ------ Features [Lock apps with a friend] When you start a focus session, Campy holds onto the apps that tend to distract you. On your own they're easy to unlock again — but make a pact with a friend, lock in together, and you'll last a little longer. When your session ends, Campy hands them right back. [Focus together] When a friend starts focusing at their camp, their campfire lights up. Take an open seat, set your timer, and focus alongside them. [Focus without competition] No rankings, no competition. Instead of measuring who focused longer, it's a place where you simply keep each other company. [Camp journal] When a session ends, your time is saved as a single polaroid. Leave a short note and keep the day's focus — and the friends who shared it — as a memory. [Guestbook] Leave a short message at a friend's camp. A small word of encouragement can be what starts their next session. [Animal friends] Roast skewers with a whole cast of animal friends — bears, pandas, ducks, and more. [Focus sounds] Crackling firewood, falling rain, deep forest, a camp by the sea. A range of natural sounds to help you settle in and focus more comfortably. [Right from your home screen] With widgets and Live Activities, see your current focus time and time remaining at a glance. Exam days. Deadline days. The long walk toward a dream you've held onto for years. Some of them feel endless when you face them alone. On those days, lock away the apps that distract you and take a seat by the same campfire as a friend. Just being there for each other can be enough to take one more step forward. ------- [FocusCamp Pro] Subscribe to FocusCamp Pro to unlock: - Exclusive animal characters - Exclusive skewers - All focus sounds - Full stats history - Full camp journal Contact focuscamp.team@gmail.com Terms of Use (EULA) https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
