Queue Focus brings task planning and a focus timer into one simple flow: plan today, choose one task, focus, finish, and move forward. Instead of switching between a to-do app and a timer, build a clear Today queue and act on it. When a task is done, tap Done, Next and keep your momentum. Lists are more than categories—they can represent the context you want to focus on. Create a Grocery list for milk, bread, and eggs. Create a Travel list for clothes, a charger, a wallet, and your passport. Switch lists to bring your attention back to what you are doing now. PLAN TODAY • Build and reorder a focused Today queue; batch-select to move or delete • Start a focus session from a task; set any focus and break duration • Pause, take a break, finish, and move to what’s next • See upcoming dues on Today; undo a completed task shortly after • Get local notifications when focus or break time ends FOCUS ON THE CURRENT CONTEXT • Create colored lists for shopping, travel, work, or daily routines • Filter by list and see only what matters now • Add planned dates, deadlines, and Important flags • Browse the month in Calendar, jump to a day, and batch-reschedule BUILD YOUR FOCUS RHYTHM • A clean Pomodoro-style focus timer • Focus stats for week / month / year and about seven days of Focus History from Today • Control focus from Lock Screen and Dynamic Island Live Activities • Free Home Screen widgets for Today and interactive Focus • No extra account—tasks and sessions stay on your device; with Pro, sync across devices with Apple iCloud QUEUE FOCUS PRO • Unlimited custom lists • Unlimited recurring tasks • Unlimited focus goals on tasks • iCloud sync • Longer focus history • Edit and add focus history Core task management (including batch), Today focus at any duration, up to 3 custom lists, up to 3 recurring tasks, up to 3 tasks with focus goals, Home Screen widgets, Focus Stats (week / month / year), about seven days of Focus History, Calendar month view, and upcoming dues remain free.
