Fruitsful
Read full descriptionHide full description
Fruitsful turns focus into something you can see. Every session you finish grows a hand-drawn fruit. It falls into the pile at the bottom of your screen, bounces, and settles among the others โ real 2D physics, not a picture. Tilt your phone and the whole harvest rolls. Give up halfway and a rotten one drops instead. Nothing is hidden and nothing is punished: the pile just tells the truth about your week. A TIMER THAT STAYS OUT OF THE WAY โข Pomodoro cycles with short and long breaks, or any length from 5 to 180 minutes โข Overtime keeps counting past 0:00 while you're in flow โ and stops before a forgotten phone becomes a nine-hour session โข A real alarm that rings in Silent Mode and through Focus โข The countdown survives the app being closed, killed, or the phone restarting โข App Freeze: pick the apps that pull you away and they stay locked until the session ends SEE WHERE YOUR TIME WENT โข Tag your sessions โ Work, Study, Deep Work, or your own โ and see the split โข Day, week, month and year charts โข A calendar timeline of every session you have run โข Medals across five categories, from your first fruit to your thousandth EVERYWHERE YOU FOCUS โข Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, for the whole cycle โข Home Screen widget with today's harvest โข Apple Watch app: watch the session from your wrist, control it from there, or run one entirely on the watch with your phone in another room โข Mindful minutes saved to Apple Health โข Finished sessions exported to your calendar FRUITSFUL PLUS All 15 fruits, your real statistics, the full calendar timeline, iCloud sync across your devices, calendar export, and App Freeze. The annual plan starts with 7 days free โ cancel any time. Fruitsful speaks 50 languages, and you can switch the app's language without touching your device settings. Plant your focus. Harvest your fruit. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
Focus in Time
Read full descriptionHide full description
Focus in Time is a focus timer for people who want to spend their attention on things that matter โ and see, week after week, where it actually went. Built natively for iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch. Everything syncs through your own iCloud account in real time. There is no Bemo Labs server, no user account, no advertising, and no third-party SDK in the app. FOCUS THE WAY YOU WORK โข Classic focus / short break / long break cycles, with customisable durations โข "Single focus" mode that disables breaks for short, deep blocks โข Run timers from your wrist with the full Apple Watch app โข Smart notifications when a session ends โ silent on Do Not Disturb CATEGORIES THAT MATCH YOUR LIFE Create a separate category for each thing you focus on โ Reading, Workout, Language, Deep Work, anything. Each category has its own focus and break durations, colour and icon. The Timer shows the current category at a glance; the Watch app lets you switch between them in two taps. WEEKLY PLAN Lay out your week on a clean grid. Drop in recurring focus blocks for each day and category. The app sends you a gentle reminder when a planned block is about to start, so you don't have to keep the schedule in your head. DETAILED STATISTICS โข Daily, weekly, monthly and yearly views โข Total focus time, daily average, current streak โข Twelve-month trend chart with horizontal scroll โข Heatmap of your last few months at a glance โข Per-category breakdown with a donut chart โข Hour-of-day and day-of-week distributions โข Schedule compliance โ how much of your planned focus you actually did โข Comparison with the previous period GOALS Set a daily and a monthly focus target. The app tracks your progress against both, with clear visual progress bars right inside the Statistics screen. PDF REPORT EXPORT One tap exports a clean, print-ready PDF of your stats for any period โ for journaling, for a coach, or just for your own records. APPLE WATCH, INDEPENDENT The Watch app is fully independent. Start a session straight from your wrist; the timer keeps running even with the phone on the other side of the room, thanks to extended runtime sessions. There's a watch face complication, too. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS Everything you create โ categories, plans, completed sessions, goals โ is stored on your device and synced through Apple's CloudKit to your own iCloud private database. We don't run a server. We can't read your timer history. There is no analytics SDK in the app, no advertising network, no third-party tracker. Delete the app and the local copy is gone; delete the iCloud copy in Settings โ iCloud and that's gone too. 22 LANGUAGES OUT OF THE BOX English, Turkish, Arabic, Chinese (Simplified & Traditional), Dutch, French, German, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil & Portugal), Russian, Spanish (Spain & Latin America), Thai, and Vietnamese โ all included. Switch the language inside the app at any time without restarting. Focus in Time is made by Bemo Labs, an independent studio based in Istanbul. We don't have a backend, we don't have your data, and we'd love to hear from you: hello@bemolabs.com
