Focus, your way. Flowtime is a flexible, friction-free focus timer and time tracker designed around a simple idea: starting should be easy, and your timer should adapt to how you focus. Start with one tap. Choose how you want to focus. Stay aware of passing time without constantly watching the clock. When you’re done, see where your time went and celebrate the milestones along the way. FOCUS WITHOUT RIGID RULES Not every task fits into a 25-minute timer. Use a simple timer, Pomodoro, Flowmodoro, or your own custom setup. Flowtime gives you structure when you want it without forcing every focus session into the same routine. STAY AWARE OF TIME Deep in a task and suddenly an hour has passed? Gentle reminders help you notice passing time without automatically ending your session. They’re useful for deep work, long creative sessions, hyperfocus, and time blindness. REDUCE DISTRACTIONS App Shielding helps keep distracting apps out of reach while you focus. When you deliberately choose to open one, Flowtime adds a moment of friction before you continue. SEE WHERE YOUR TIME GOES Your sessions become a record of how you spend your focus time. Explore your history, filter your statistics, organise sessions into projects, and discover your own patterns. CELEBRATE YOUR PROGRESS Unlock achievements as you use Flowtime and reach new focus milestones. Achievements are designed to celebrate progress without turning focus into a streak you have to maintain. Share the achievements you’re proud of, or simply keep them for yourself. BUILT FOR LESS FRICTION • One-tap focus timer • Pomodoro and Flowmodoro • Custom timer setups • Time-awareness reminders • App Shielding • Projects • Session history • Focus statistics and filters • Shareable achievements • Light and dark themes • Custom accent colours USE IT YOUR WAY Flowtime can be a work timer, study timer, deep-work companion, time tracker, Pomodoro alternative, or simply a way to make passing time easier to notice. Its time-awareness tools can also be useful for experiences such as hyperfocus and ADHD time blindness, without defining how or why you use the app. No account. No complicated productivity system between you and what you want to do. Open Flowtime. Start. Focus your way.

Nokosu is an app for instantly "keeping" memos, to-dos, camera photos, album images, and more. With its simple, effortless feel, you can jot down your thoughts just as they come. ■ Capture the moment One button in the bottom-right corner. Text, a photo you snap on the spot, or an image from your library — save it the instant it comes to mind. ■ Memos and to-dos Text you want to keep goes in a memo; things to get done go in a to-do. Both are just as quick to save the moment they come to mind — and you can switch between memo and to-do anytime. ■ Stack to organize Just stack one memo onto another and a new folder is created automatically. Things tidy themselves with a simple touch. ■ Drag & drop, freely Move memos and folders anywhere with drag & drop. Reorder them, move them in and out of folders — everything just as you like. ■ Look back on the calendar You can browse your memos on a calendar, by the date they were created. ■ iCloud sync Sync your memos in real time across devices signed in with the same Apple Account, including Nokosu for Mac. ■ Bookmarks Bookmark important memos and call them up anytime from the Bookmarks list. ― Nokosu Pro ― A monthly plan that bundles features for keeping things even more conveniently. ■ Nested folders The free version lets you create folders at the top level only; with Pro, you can also create folders on deeper levels. ■ Locked Folder Lock sensitive memos, images, and folders with Face ID. Nothing in the Locked Folder appears on Home, in search, or in any list, and you can move existing memos, images, and folders into it. ■ Full history in Memos & Images On the Memos and Images pages, look back at memos and images older than one month. ■ All themes available In addition to the default Light theme, dress up the app with Dark, Beige, Navy, and White. ■ Customize how folders look Set a color and an icon for each folder. The free version comes with the basic colors, and Pro unlocks every color and every icon. ■ Quick input The keyboard appears the moment you open the app, so you can start writing right away without tapping the input button. ■ Lock Screen widget Create a note or add a photo with a single tap from the Nokosu widget on your Lock Screen. ■ Control Center widget Create a note or add a photo with a single tap from the Nokosu widget in Control Center or on the Action button. ■ Save to Photos too When you capture a photo memo in the app, you can also copy the photo to your Photo Library.
