Deep Session vs FLIP

Deep Session is a focus timer built for people who want to sit down and do the work - without fuss, without distractions. No accounts. No ads. No subscriptions. Just a timer. How it works Pick a session - Deep Work, Quick Focus, or Long Session - and press start. A warm-up period eases you in, then the timer begins. When you’re done, you’ll see how long you stayed focused. That’s it. No complicated setup, no overwhelming features. Track your progress See your focus hours for today, this week, and this month. Watch your streak grow as you build a daily deep work habit. Every session is saved locally on your device - your data stays yours. What makes Deep Session different Starts in seconds, not minutes No sign-up or onboarding walls No cloud sync, no servers, no tracking Designed to feel calm and quiet Works completely offline Dark mode that actually looks good Built for deep work Deep Session is inspired by the idea that the hardest part of focused work is simply starting. The app removes every barrier between you and your next session. Open it, tap, and begin. Your focus data never leaves your device. There are no analytics, no third-party SDKs, and no data collection of any kind.

The hardest part of any task is starting. The 2-minute rule says: just commit to two minutes — then decide whether to keep going. Most of the time, once you've started, you'll keep working far longer. FLIP is a single-screen timer built around that idea. —————————————— HOW IT WORKS • Tap once to start a 2-minute kickoff timer. • When 2 minutes are up, flip your phone face-down to commit to a 20-minute deep-work block. • When deep work ends, turn your phone sideways to take a 5-minute break. • Hold anywhere to cancel — a segmented bar fills with synchronized haptics so the gesture is unmistakable. That's it. No accounts, no settings, no menus. —————————————— DESIGNED FOR FOCUS • Single-screen interface with a retro-digital typeface and edge-to-edge color fill that grows with the timer • Haptic feedback on every state change so you don't have to look at the screen • Lock-screen and Dynamic Island Live Activity — keep the countdown visible without unlocking your phone • A short chime when each phase ends so you can put the phone down and focus —————————————— PRIVATE BY DESIGN • 100% on-device. No accounts, no analytics, no third-party SDKs, no servers. • No data collection. The privacy policy fits on one page. —————————————— WHO IT'S FOR • People who reach for their phone instead of starting a task • Knowledge workers running Pomodoro-like sessions • Students looking for a low-friction focus timer • Anyone who wants the smallest possible app between them and beginning a task Beat procrastination by promising yourself two minutes. Then flip the phone.
