FocusFlow Focus Timer vs Cycle

FocusFlow is the ADHD-friendly Pomodoro that blocks distractions only while you focus. Start a session, watch Instagram and TikTok disappear, finish, get them back — no all-day parental-controls guilt. WHY FOCUSFLOW • Actually finish what you started — apps you pick are blocked only for the length of your focus block, then unlock automatically. • No more "just five more minutes" — Flowtime lets you run open-ended sessions when you're already in the zone. • Built for brains that need momentum, not marathons — ADHD mode ships 15-minute focus blocks with frequent 3-minute breaks. • Zero setup friction — no signup, no account, no email. Open the app, hit start. • Your data stays yours — session stats live on-device, never uploaded.

FocusFlow shields only for the length of your session. Blocking turns on when you start, off when the timer ends. That's it. Combined with Flowtime — where the timer counts up instead of down — you get a system that respects real deep-work rhythms instead of forcing you into rigid 25-minute chunks. PRICE The core Pomodoro timer, stats, streaks, widgets, and Live Activity are free forever. FocusFlow Plus adds Focus Shield app blocking, Flowtime open-ended sessions, and the Apple Watch companion. Try Plus with a 7-day free trial. Focus is hard. FocusFlow makes it easier.
