Focustown vs RMNDR

Can't stop reaching for your phone? Turn your focus into something you can watch grow. FocusTown is a gamified deep-work timer: every focus session you finish earns coins that build a cozy pixel town, block by block. Stay off your phone, and a tiny hamlet slowly becomes a thriving city. Pay once and it's yours forever — no subscription, no ads, and nothing about you is ever collected. HOW IT WORKS 1. Start a focus session — Pomodoro-style or a custom length. 2. Put your phone down and do the work. 3. Earn coins for every session you complete. 4. Spend them to build and upgrade houses, libraries, parks and more. WHY YOU'LL STICK WITH IT — See your progress: abstract "focus time" becomes a town you can actually look at and feel proud of. — Build real habits: streaks and gentle momentum keep you coming back, day after day. — Calm by design: no social feeds, no attention-grabbing notifications, no endless scroll. — Your data stays yours: the app collects nothing. Nothing to leak, nothing to sell. — Pay once: unlock everything with a single one-time purchase — never a subscription. FEATURES — Flexible focus timer for work, study, reading, writing or mindfulness. — A cozy town builder with unique, beautifully styled buildings to collect and arrange. — Clear statistics: track daily, weekly and monthly focus trends. — Ambient sounds to help you settle in and block out distractions. WHO IT'S FOR Students revising for exams, remote workers fighting distraction, writers chasing flow, and anyone who wants to reclaim their attention — without renting their tools by the month.

RMNDR is for people who can't stay on track. We built it because we're those people too — one reminder has never been enough for us. Most productivity apps want you checking in constantly. We built the opposite. Tell RMNDR once, and AI handles the rest — it figures out how urgent something is, builds the right reminder schedule around it, and puts a live countdown right on your lock screen and Dynamic Island. You never have to open the app to know where you stand. That's the whole point: the less time you spend in RMNDR, the better we've done our job. HOW IT WORKS • Add a reminder and tell RMNDR how much it matters, 1 to 5, and what time. • AI builds the ladder for you — an early heads-up, reminders, and a final call, tuned to how important it actually is. • A live countdown sits on your lock screen and Dynamic Island as time runs out — glanceable, always current, zero taps required. • Completed it? One tap, and you're back to your day. No streaks to keep up, no app to babysit. We also added a to-do list for things without a deadline — because we all know you've got stuff you need to do — and you can send a reminder straight to a friend's phone: great for partners, roommates, and forgetful family. You can even say "Hey Siri, add a reminder to RMNDR." Free to use: add up to 10 new reminders every month, no account needed. RMNDR PREMIUM • Unlimited reminders. • AI capture — dump everything on your mind in one message and RMNDR sorts it into reminders, checks off what you say you've finished, and files the rest on your to-do list. • Night briefing — a short evening rundown of tomorrow, written for you each night. • Break-through alerts — final-hour alerts for your most important reminders can cut through silent mode and Do Not Disturb. • Accountability partner — one person you choose can see whether you kept or missed your big reminders. Premium is $4.99/month or $29.99/year. Payment is charged to your Apple Account and auto-renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings.
