Capsla vs AVOW

Capsla is a quiet Pomodoro timer for studying, deep work and anything that needs your full attention. Set your focus length, short and long breaks, and the number of cycles. Block distracting apps while you focus: Capsla asks for Screen Time access and lifts the block the moment the phase ends. The timer is wherever you look: in a Live Activity and the Dynamic Island, on the Lock Screen, on Apple Watch, in widgets, in Control Center and on the Action button. Ask Siri to pause or start, and the answer comes with a card and buttons for the next step. You rarely need to open the app. Capsla has its own Apple Watch app. Start, pause and reset from your wrist, even when your iPhone isn't nearby, and the two stay in step. Turn the Digital Crown to set the focus length, feel a tap when a phase ends, and keep the timer on your watch face or in the Smart Stack. Phases you finish on the watch count in your statistics on iPhone. Notifications do real work. A quiet heads-up a few minutes before focus ends, a signal when a phase is over, buttons to start the break or the next focus right from the banner, and a reminder if you forget to come back after a break. Notifications are Time Sensitive, so they come through Do Not Disturb. Statistics show where your attention went: net focus time by week, month and all time, a chart by day, the hours you focus best, days in a row and time by tag. History starts the day you install Capsla, and the app never fills in numbers it did not record. Export all of it as a CSV file whenever you like. On iOS 27, the statistics widget can fill a whole Home Screen page.

The core of Capsla, including the timer, the Apple Watch app, app blocking, statistics, tags, widgets and Siri, is free and stays free. There are no screens asking you to buy anything, and no buttons that stop working until you pay. There is no Capsla account. Tags and focus history sync only through your own iCloud; settings stay on your iPhone. The Privacy screen lists every event the app has sent, a real list from your device, and two switches turn collection off.

Put your phone down. Give your work your attention. Watch your Space take shape. AVOW brings a calm timer, distinctive focus artwork and a clear record of verified progress to your day. TWO WAYS TO FOCUS Verified Focus checks your presence on your device. When you step away, verified time pauses. Return and keep building where you left off. Personal Focus gives you every Space and destination, without verification, saved progress or achievements. Choose how long to work and enjoy the experience. An optional Focus Mirror uses your camera only when you choose it. FIND YOUR SPACE Keep it simple with Minimal. Form a constellation, illuminate a city, climb a mountain, grow a flower, build an illustrated neural connection or cross a bridge. Preview every Space before starting. In Verified Focus, qualifying progress saves between sessions. A shorter session still counts toward your destination. Reach a milestone, unlock what comes next and keep focusing without interrupting your timer. YOUR PASSPORT See the lasting results of Verified Focus: destination stamps, connections built, elevation climbed, virtual bridge distance, flowers grown, stars collected, cities visited and bridges crossed. Browse your Space Collection and return to what you have started. Passport also includes premium appearance themes and themed Home Screen icons. Keep the original AVOW icon or choose a palette to match your style. These are symbolic focus illustrations. AVOW does not measure biological brain changes, physical climbing, walking distance or GPS activity. PLAN YOUR NEXT SESSION Schedule tasks and reminders, review your verified history and choose a theme that feels right. On supported iPhone and iPad devices, optionally authorize Screen Time and choose distracting apps or categories to block during your scheduled work. Cancel a plan, use Emergency Stop or revoke permission whenever you need to. Optional account and community features let you decide what to share. CLEAR SESSION ACCESS Start with three free sessions total, shared across Verified Focus and Personal Focus. After those, either mode requires an active Passport subscription (AVOW Pro) or a single-session purchase, US $0.99. Personal Focus includes every Space and destination with any valid session access. In Verified Focus, Flowers, Neural Network and Bridge Crossing require Passport; other Spaces follow the same session-payment rules. Previewing, pausing, resuming or continuing the same session never consumes another session. Passport is available monthly or yearly. Prices and any eligible introductory offer appear before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings. CAMERA PRIVACY Camera processing happens on your device. AVOW does not record or upload camera footage. Account, sync and purchase services have separate data practices explained in the Privacy Policy.
