FocusFlow vs TimeBlock

FocusFlow isn't here to push you harder. It's here to make starting easier. Built for ADHD brains — and anyone who finds "just focus" easier said than done — FocusFlow lowers the barrier at the hardest moment: getting started. WHY IT FEELS DIFFERENT • Start the smallest step. Stuck? FocusFlow hands you a 2-minute first move, not a lecture. • Work with your energy, not against it. Pick tasks by how you feel right now — high, steady, or low. Every state has its place. • Rewards for showing up, not output. Every focus session grows your Focus Garden. Miss a day? No penalty, no shame — your garden remembers every minute you came back. • See time pass. A calm countdown, plus a Live Activity on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island, so time stops quietly slipping away. • Catch every thought. Zero-friction Quick Capture — type it or just say it out loud — so ideas don't disappear before you use them. GENTLE BY DESIGN No streak guilt. No monitoring. No "you're behind." FocusFlow is a warm coach, never a taskmaster — because shame is the number-one reason focus apps get deleted. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT Your tasks, energy, and garden stay on your device, optionally synced through your own private iCloud. No accounts. No tracking. No third-party analytics. BRING YOUR OWN AI (OPTIONAL) Want a hand breaking a big task into tiny steps? Add your own API key (works with major AI models). Your key lives in your device's Keychain — never on our servers. FocusFlow is free. Open it, and start with one small thing.
