Dopa Toll shows what the time you lose to distracting apps is worth, in dollars, at your own hourly rate, and itemizes it like a bill. The dollars are a mirror, not a charge. The toll is coins, earned by focusing. Set your hourly rate. Every minute in Instagram, X, or TikTok is shown as what that time is worth. "$47 of your time this week" reads differently than "7 hours." The Today screen is a statement. The Stats screen is a year-end review. It's a toll, not a blocker. You can always get through. You pay, and you see the price first. THREE WAYS APPS HANDLE THIS: WE'RE THE THIRD Block it (you'll just unblock it). Earn a reward (you stop caring about the tree). Dopa Toll charges a toll: a small daily free pass on each app, then every open has a visible cost. HOW IT WORKS Set your limits Pick the apps that distract you and set a daily time cap. Each app gets a small daily free pass. Under the cap, opens are free. Past it, every open costs coins. See the cost at the moment you open Hit the cap and the app locks. The unlock screen shows that time in real dollars at your rate before you decide, not a week later. Then the charge lands on Today's bill, itemized, line by line. Spend coins to pass The longer the unlock, the more coins per minute. Honest economy. 5 min = 15 coins. 10 min = 35. 15 min = 60. Lock back early and unused coins are refunded. Earn coins by focusing 25-minute Pomodoro sessions earn coins. First session: 10. Sessions 2-4: 5 each. Session 5: a 15-coin milestone. Every morning starts you at 30 coins minimum. You're never completely stuck. WHY IT WORKS Most focus apps make a deal you'll break. "Just block it." β you unblock it. "Earn a tree." β you don't care about the tree. Dopa Toll bets on a number you actually feel: the real value of your own time, shown at the moment you decide, then itemized on a receipt the next morning. You decide if it's worth it. BUILT WITH SAFETY NETS Friction, not punishment. A daily free pass on every app. Walk away from any unlock screen with Stay Strong. No cost. Lock back early for a refund of unused coins. A 30-coin daily floor so you're never completely stuck. It charges in coins, not real money. The dollar figures are your own time valued at your own rate, a mirror, not a price tag. Free to download. Coin packs are available for busy weeks when you don't have time to earn.

Focus Orbit is an iPhone focus timer that turns your concentration time into a spaceflight experience. It includes two modes: βCustom Flight,β which works as a standard focus timer, and βPlanet Roadmap,β where you advance from Earth to the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto as you accumulate focus time. One of the appβs strongest features is its βMission Passβ boarding sequence before each session begins. Instead of simply tapping a start button, the user slides their mission pass to the right and physically feeds it through the on-screen scanner to authorize the flight. This makes the moment you begin focusing feel intentional, immersive, and memorable. Before each session, users choose their task, duration, and destination, then scan their mission pass to start the flight. Once the journey begins, the app avoids unnecessary interaction and lets users stay focused inside a calm, space-themed environment. After the session ends, the destination reached and focus record are saved to the flight log, making it easy to reflect on steady progress over time. In Planet Roadmap mode, focus time carries over continuously instead of resetting each time, allowing users to keep moving deeper into the solar system. Planets that can be landed on include landing, authorization, and liftoff sequences, while non-landable planets are passed through with flyby sequences, giving users a stronger sense of progress and achievement as they continue studying or working. Focus Orbit is designed to create immersion and a sense of momentum without losing the core purpose of a focus timer. It transforms studying, reading, creative work, and deep tasks into a quiet, cinematic journey through space.
