Stop staring at cold numbers. Scenova turns focus time into something you actually want to keep going. Instead of a harsh countdown on a blank screen, you get a living scene: a candle burning down, sand falling through an hourglass, ice slowly melting, rain drifting across the sky, or a campfire crackling while you work. Time becomes visible β calm, beautiful, and surprisingly motivating. HOW IT WORKS Pick a scene that matches your mood. Drag up or down on the object to set your session length β no typing, no fiddling with sliders. Tap start, put your phone down, and let the scene do the rest. When your session ends, you'll hear a gentle chime (or silence, if you prefer). That's it. One simple ritual, repeated until focus becomes a habit. BUILT FOR REAL FOCUS β’ Visual timers that feel alive β not another sterile productivity app β’ Drag on the scene to set your duration in seconds β’ Ambient sounds crafted for each scene: crackle, rain, water, nature, soft melodies & more β’ Live Activity on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island β always know where you are β’ Phone pickup tracking: see how often you reached for your phone mid-session β’ Streak system that rewards consistency, not perfection β’ Unlock new scenes as you show up day after day β’ Native iPad layout with a dedicated control panel β’ Share beautiful session cards when you finish 9 STUNNING SCENES Candle, Hourglass, Ice Block, Campfire, Sunset, Sunrise, Plant, Moonlight, Rain Cloud & more Whether you're studying for an exam, doing deep work, reading without distractions, or getting into a creative flow β Scenova gives you a reason to stay present.

The clearest difference is ads: Focus Quest at none against Scenova's shown. On price, in-app purchases, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
