ZeroPage vs Focus4Life

ZeroPage is a read-only viewer for quickly and beautifully reading Markdown, HTML, text, and PDF documents stored in iCloud Drive on iPhone and iPad. Write anywhere, read comfortably. ZeroPage focuses on one thing: reading. Your ZeroPage folder in iCloud Drive becomes your document library. Browse folders, find documents by filename or body text, and reopen recent documents from History. It shares the same library with ZeroPage for Mac, so you can continue on iPhone or iPad while you’re out. You can also open .md, .markdown, .html, .htm, .txt, and .pdf files from the Files app or other apps. Get to what you need • Jump through long documents with the heading outline • Find words and passages with in-document search • Library search looks in filenames and body text—reach the right file from a half-remembered line • On iPhone, focus on the body; on iPad, show the library, outline, and body side by side Markdown, HTML, text, and PDF • Place PDFs in the same folder and read them there. Move around with the embedded table of contents and body search • Display Markdown with tables, task lists, code blocks, Mermaid diagrams, local images, and links in a readable layout • Code blocks are syntax-highlighted by language and can be copied with one tap • Plain .txt is shown with line breaks and spacing preserved—not interpreted as Markdown • Local HTML also supports outline and in-document search • Share the original file • Adjust text size, line spacing, and appearance • Supports VoiceOver and Dynamic Type Built for reading READMEs, specs, meeting notes, research notes, documents written by AI. We read every day, yet apps made for reading are surprisingly rare. With ZeroPage, you can focus on the content without worrying about editing the original by mistake. External images, styles, fonts, and JavaScript in HTML are limited by default. ZeroPage is not a general-purpose web browser—it’s a viewer for reading documents you already have, safely. For documents you trust, you can allow only what you need for the current reading session. ZeroPage Premium The app shows ads. Premium is a monthly auto-renewing subscription. While subscribed, all ads on iPhone and iPad are hidden, and you can export Markdown, HTML, and text documents as PDF. After export, you can choose in Settings whether to open the share sheet or save to Files. Restore purchases and manage your subscription in the app. Document loading, search, display, and PDF generation run on your iPhone or iPad. Network communication occurs only if you allow loading external resources such as images in HTML. Terms of Use: https://516k.net/terms/ Privacy Policy: https://516k.net/privacy/

Focus4Life turns scattered days into focused ones. A Pomodoro timer, a real task planner and a distraction blocker in one calm app — no ads, no account, and it works completely offline. WHY IT'S QUIET Focus4Life doesn't run on anxiety. No punishing streaks, no guilt, no noise. Its timings and limits come from published research and from the original authors of each technique, and the research-backed settings carry an (i) with the source behind them. FOUR RHYTHMS, EACH WITH A REASON • Classic — 25 / 5 / 15, Cirillo's original technique • Deep Work — 50 / 10 / 30, after Cal Newport's "Deep Work" • Sprint — 15 / 3 / 10, a low-resistance way into a hard task • Ultradian — 90 / 20, the Basic Rest-Activity Cycle (Kleitman; Lavie) • A live countdown on your Lock Screen — and in the Dynamic Island on iPhones that have one — drawn by iOS itself, so it costs almost no battery • A gentle heads-up when a task runs past the limits research links to fatigue FOCUS LOCK — IT ACTUALLY STOPS YOU • Block distracting apps — and websites in Safari — during a session using Apple Screen Time: a real, system-enforced shield, fully opt-in, and only while a focus phase is running • Choose gentle friction or a firm block, per session or for good • Flip your phone face-down to drop straight into focus, and get a nudge if you pick it up too soon • Never during a break. Never while you're paused. Never without a permission you granted yourself A REAL TASK PLANNER, NOT A CHECKLIST • Priorities, due dates and repeats — daily, weekdays, weekly or monthly, ending never, on a date, or after a set number of times • Estimate a task and the app works out how many pomodoros it needs • Today, Week and Month views; on iPad, Week and Month list your actual tasks under each day • Notes on any task • Nothing reschedules itself behind your back. Overdue work is a count and a button, never a scolding PROJECTS WITH SOMETHING TO FILL Group tasks into colour-coded projects, each with an optional note on when and where you'll do the work — an “implementation intention”, shown to make follow-through markedly more likely (Gollwitzer, 1999). Give a project a goal image, estimate its tasks, and the image uncovers itself as you focus your way through the estimate. A GARDEN THAT REMEMBERS Every finished session uncovers part of a hidden picture, and longer sessions uncover more. A quiet record of effort — not a leaderboard, and not a plant that dies if you take a day off. Missing a day never takes anything away. HONEST STATS Minutes focused, sessions completed, tasks done, and your longest single session — for today and the last 7 days. Pro adds 30-day and all-time history, plus a breakdown of which apps interrupted you. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Works fully offline — no account, no sign-up, nothing in the cloud • Your data stays on your device • No ads. Not now, not ever. ONE APP, EVERY SCREEN iPhone, iPad and Mac, each running the same app with the same calm. Every device keeps its own data on itself — there is no cloud and nothing to sign in to. FOCUS4LIFE PRO Free covers the whole core loop: unlimited sessions, all four research presets, the entire task planner with repeats and notes, two projects, the Garden, and flip-to-focus. Pro is a one-time purchase — not a subscription — and unlocks unlimited projects, the full focus blocker, 30-day and all-time stats, custom timer durations, and your own photos in the Garden. It comes with a 7-day trial that asks for no payment card and simply ends. We'd love your feedback — reach us anytime at phan.business.nl@gmail.com.
