Somewhere inside your phone, tiny residents have made themselves at home in a place called Komoriba. Animals, robots, and all sorts of curious little characters. While you're focused on your work, they're busy doing their own thing in their cozy rooms. And honestly? They're ridiculously cute. ◆ Focus Timer Start a focus session and your residents get to work alongside you. The longer you stay focused, the more Crystals you earn. ◆ Screen Block Block distracting apps while you focus. The more apps you block, the more Crystals you'll pick up. ◆ Focus with Friends Find a public room, or get together with an invite code or shared link. Even when you're apart, your Komoriba can focus side by side. ◆ Discover New Komoriba Spend your Crystals to unlock rooms you haven't seen yet. Each one is home to different residents. The more you focus, the more of this world opens up to you. ◆ Community Komoriba You can even request your very own original Komoriba. A room born from your imagination might just help someone else find their focus too. ◆ Komoriba Supporter (Monthly Plan) Want to support the world of Komoriba? Supporters earn double Crystals from focus sessions, receive bonus Crystals every month, and get access to supporter-only rooms. Your support helps this little world keep growing. ◆ Crystal Shop Can't wait to meet a certain Komoriba resident? You can grab Crystals anytime to unlock them right away. Studying, working, or just getting things done. Whatever you're up to, your Komoriba residents are right there with you.
