Ichi vs FocusPiece

Ichi is the calmest way to do one thing at a time. Most to-do apps hand you a wall of tasks and a quiet feeling of dread. Ichi does the opposite: it collapses the whole list down to a single, beautiful screen — the one thing you're on right now. Finish it, and the next one rises gently into place. Reach the end, and the screen quietly exhales: all clear. No due dates. No "overdue." No streaks to protect, no caps to hit, no ads. Just the next thing, and the calm of knowing nothing is slipping through. ONE TASK, FRONT AND CENTER • Your single most important task, in beautiful big type • Complete it and the next one rises into place — a calm move, never confetti • An ordered "Up next" queue you reorder with a drag; the top becomes now CAPTURE WITHOUT FRICTION • Add a task in a tap — from the app, a Home Screen widget, the Share Sheet, or a word to Siri • Everything new waits quietly in the queue until you're ready for it • Nothing is ever silently deleted A WIDGET THAT'S NEVER STALE • Glance at your current task from the Home Screen, Lock Screen, or StandBy • It reads the same source as the app, so it always shows the true next thing MADE TO FEEL GOOD • Spring-physics motion, considered haptics, and Liquid Glass materials • Four hand-tuned themes — Warm Paper and Cool Mist free; Nocturne and Aurora with Pro • Light and dark, full Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, and Reduce Motion support • Private by design — your tasks sync through your own iCloud, never our servers ICHI PRO Every feature is free, forever. Pro is purely for the beauty: the Nocturne and Aurora themes, the StandBy nightstand widget, and alternate app icons. Pro is available as a one-time purchase or a yearly auto-renewable subscription, and is always restorable. Pro never sells capacity, there are no caps to lift. Do one thing. Then the next. — Ichi Pro (yearly) is an auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.

FocusPiece – Where Focus Becomes Art Concentration has become rare. FocusPiece makes it visible. Set the timer, put your phone down and sink into your work. While you stay focused, a hidden masterpiece emerges from the mist, piece by piece. At the end of every session you hold a fully revealed work of art that you have earned. No points. No aggressive streaks. No guilt. Just a calm, beautiful space for deep concentration. HOW IT WORKS • Choose your time: 15, 25, 45 or 60 minutes of undisturbed focus. • Stay in the picture: as long as you remain in the app, the hidden painting sharpens with every minute. Leave, and the reveal gently pauses. • Collect masterpieces: every completed session unlocks a work and places it in your personal gallery. A GALLERY YOU EARN Your collection does not fill up by chance, but through real concentration. Every unlocked work carries the date, the length of your session and the story behind the original. Browse van Gogh's "Almond Blossom", Hokusai's "Great Wave", Monet's "Sunrise", Friedrich's "Wanderer" and many more classics of art history: public-domain masterpieces, curated for quiet moments. ON YOUR WRIST AS WELL With Apple Watch you start, pause and follow a session without reaching for your iPhone. On the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island your progress stays in view. DELIBERATELY MINIMAL FocusPiece was designed around a single principle: nothing that distracts. Warm paper white, a calm terracotta accent, clear typography. No loud notifications, no endless statistics, no mechanics designed to hook you. The app steps back so your focus and the art can step forward. FEATURES AT A GLANCE • Focus timer with a freely selectable duration • Progressive art reveal in real time, tied to your concentration • Apple Watch: start, pause and follow a session from your wrist • Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island • Personal gallery with every unlocked work • Challenges that unlock further works • One overview in the gallery: focus time collected, rounds and works revealed • Detail views with title, artist, year and collection context • Set a work as your lock screen • Optional ambient sounds, such as rain • Gentle completion chime and subtle haptic feedback • "Soft start" for a calm beginning to every session • Light mode that lets the artworks shine • Works entirely without an account; your data stays on your device WHO IS IT FOR?
