Focus Garden

Plant your focus. Grow your discipline. Focus Garden is a Pomodoro-style focus timer wrapped in a calming garden world. Start a session, and a plant grows. Build a streak. Watch your garden expand. Three lush biomes, smart streak shields, and a Lock Screen widget that keeps you in the zone, even when your phone is in your pocket. Built for students cramming for finals, writers chasing deadlines, professionals fighting distraction, and anyone who would rather grow a small forest than scroll one more time. WHY FOCUS GARDEN Three Garden Biomes Mystic Grove (free), Sun Oasis, and Monsoon Canopy. Each biome has its own plants, palette, and ambience. The plants you grow are saved per biome, so your garden grows in three different worlds at once. Wall-Clock Timer Lock the phone, switch to music, take a quick call. Your session keeps going. We track real time, not screen time, so the moment you start is the moment that counts. Streak Shield (Premium) One slip should not undo a month of consistency. Premium gives you a daily shield that protects your streak when life gets in the way. Use it when you need it. Let it stack when you do not. Detailed Insights (Premium) A 12-week activity heatmap, hour-of-day breakdown, week-over-week comparison, and a per-biome time split. See exactly when you do your best work and where your time really goes. Custom Alarm Sounds Pick from four hand-picked tones, including Garden Bell, Forest Whisper, Morning Dew, and Twilight Chime, that play when your session completes, even with the app fully closed. Live Activity Widget (iOS 16.1 and later) Your active session lives on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island with a live countdown, plus Pause, Resume, and Cancel buttons right there. No more unlocking just to check the timer. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick your biome. 2. Set the duration, from 1 to 240 minutes. 3. Tap Start. A plant begins to grow. 4. When the alarm rings, the plant joins your garden. Build a streak. Watch your heatmap fill in. Premium unlocks the streak shield and detailed insights to keep you going. PRICING Focus Garden is free forever in Mystic Grove. Premium unlocks the other two biomes, the streak shield, and detailed insights. Weekly: 1.99 USD per week. Monthly: 2.99 USD per month.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Keepu at none against Focus Garden's 3. Keepu also leads on update cadence (every 10 days vs every 6 weeks) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
