Matchbox vs FocusOrbit

Strike, light, and focus until it burns out. Matchbox is a focus timer and habit tracker built around a retro matchbox. Strike a match and stay focused while that one match slowly burns down — a primal, beautiful ritual, faithfully recreated on your iPhone. ■ A focus timer you strike to start Swipe the match against the striker and it lights with a satisfying, tactile "catch." Then simply focus while the match burns. The countdown quietly fades into the night after a while (tap the screen to peek anytime). Want to stop? Blow into the mic and the flame goes out. ■ Match Block: tuck distracting apps into the box While your match is burning, the apps you choose are blocked via Screen Time (Family Controls). Social media and games stay "in the box" until the match burns out — or until you blow it out. Which apps you pick never leaves your device. ■ Ten living night scenes, each with its own sound Moonlit night, snowfield, night rain, firefly lake, starry night, bamboo grove, night sakura, moonlit sea, harvest moon, ink wash. Snow falls, petals swirl, fireflies blink — sometimes a shooting star crosses the sky. Every scene brings its own ambience: hearth, night wind, rain, waves, crickets and more. ■ Habits, one match at a time Complete a daily habit and strike a single match to log it. The matches in your box run down, so your effort literally stacks up as a physical amount. Streaks are always one glance away. ■ Matchboxes to collect Vintage, letterpress-style matchbox designs — Nordic, café, retro, sakura and more. The joy of collecting keeps you coming back. ■ Shake to hear it Shake your iPhone on the home screen and the box rattles based on how many matches are left. A real matchbox, in the palm of your hand. Free to use. Premium (one-time or weekly, no free trial) unlocks every matchbox design, backdrop and holder, unlimited habits, no ads, and detailed records. ■ LINKS - Support: https://tsuzukit.com/contact/ - Terms of Service: https://tsuzukit.com/legal/terms-of-service.html - Privacy Policy: https://tsuzukit.com/legal/privacy-policy.html

Focus Orbit is an iPhone focus timer that turns your concentration time into a spaceflight experience. It includes two modes: “Custom Flight,” which works as a standard focus timer, and “Planet Roadmap,” where you advance from Earth to the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto as you accumulate focus time. One of the app’s strongest features is its “Mission Pass” boarding sequence before each session begins. Instead of simply tapping a start button, the user slides their mission pass to the right and physically feeds it through the on-screen scanner to authorize the flight. This makes the moment you begin focusing feel intentional, immersive, and memorable. Before each session, users choose their task, duration, and destination, then scan their mission pass to start the flight. Once the journey begins, the app avoids unnecessary interaction and lets users stay focused inside a calm, space-themed environment. After the session ends, the destination reached and focus record are saved to the flight log, making it easy to reflect on steady progress over time. In Planet Roadmap mode, focus time carries over continuously instead of resetting each time, allowing users to keep moving deeper into the solar system. Planets that can be landed on include landing, authorization, and liftoff sequences, while non-landable planets are passed through with flyby sequences, giving users a stronger sense of progress and achievement as they continue studying or working. Focus Orbit is designed to create immersion and a sense of momentum without losing the core purpose of a focus timer. It transforms studying, reading, creative work, and deep tasks into a quiet, cinematic journey through space.
