Focus Drift

Read full description

Focus Drift isn't another to-do list, and it isn't another time tracker. It tracks the gap between the day you planned and the day you actually had — so you can finally see where your time goes and take it back. Plan your day with priorities. Log interruptions the moment they hit, with their source and real cost. Reflect at day's end. Then let AI turn it all into a report that actually tells you something. FREE TO USE • Plan your day with time estimates and a real capacity bar • Log interruptions and unplanned work — who or what caused it, and what it cost • End-of-day reflection and a daily Focus Score • Today's report, ideas, and deadlines • Works fully offline, single device, no account needed UPGRADE TO PRO • Sync across your devices • Cloud backup and restore • Weekly and custom-range reports with trends • Full report history, plus PDF and image exports • Connect your AI assistant (Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, any MCP client) to read your plan, add tasks, and pull your reports — hands-free WHY FOCUS DRIFT To-do apps track what you planned. Time trackers total your hours. Focus Drift tracks the difference: interruptions and their sources, unplanned work and its cost, your real daily capacity, and what carries over — then explains the patterns. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your data lives on your device. No ads, no trackers, nothing sold. Sync is optional and encrypted in transit. Tasks you mark private are never shared with AI or in reports. Plan your day. Then see what actually happened. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
