Focus Terrarium vs Zen Timer

Focus Terrarium is a Pomodoro focus timer and study timer that turns focused time into a living terrarium. Finish study, work, reading or deep work sessions, discover new plants and creatures, and build a visual record of the time you protected. No streak pressure. No punishment for taking a day off. Just a calm focus tracker that grows with you. FOCUS TIMER FOR STUDY, WORK AND DEEP WORK Choose 10, 25, 45, 60 or 90 minutes and start in seconds. • Use classic 25-minute Pomodoro-style focus sessions • Study for exams, homework or revision • Protect deep work for writing, coding, design or creative projects • Pause, resume, take a break or finish early • Hide the exact countdown and follow organic growth instead • Recover an active session if the app closes Choose a category such as Work, Study, Read, Create, Personal or Meditate so your focus history stays useful without becoming complicated. GROW A TERRARIUM WHILE YOU FOCUS Every meaningful completed session can reveal a living discovery for your glasshouse. Collect 30 species across plants, mosses, fungi and small creatures. Discover duplicates to advance growth through multiple stages, place organisms by hand, and watch your habitat become denser over time. Longer focus sessions can unlock rarer discoveries, while the Daily Seed rewards regular focused time without forcing a streak. A STUDY TRACKER YOU WILL WANT TO OPEN Your Field Journal turns productivity tracking into a collection. See: • Every organism you have discovered • Rarity and growth stage • First discovery date • Copies collected • Focus time represented by each species • A complete discovery timeline • Search and filters by type or rarity Whether you use Focus Terrarium as a study tracker, work timer or concentration timer, your progress stays visible as something you built. PROJECTS, TASKS AND WEEKLY GOALS Connect focus sessions to projects and lightweight tasks. Set a goal by sessions or minutes, track project progress, and grow an anchor organism as the work moves forward. It is a simple way to combine a focus timer, task tracking and visual motivation without turning the app into a complicated planner. FOCUS INSIGHTS WITHOUT THE PRESSURE Review your focus rhythm by day, week or month. See: • Focus minutes and completed sessions • Active days • Average and longest sessions • Category distribution • Project progress • Weekly patterns and summaries Focus Terrarium helps you understand your habits without shaming you for missed days. AMBIENT SOUNDS FOR CONCENTRATION Create a calmer study or deep work environment with: • Soft Rain • Greenhouse Hum • Forest Night • White Noise • Brown Noise Control ambience independently, keep it playing in the background when enabled, or mix it with your own music. WIDGETS, LIVE ACTIVITY AND SHORTCUTS Keep your focus timer close without repeatedly opening the app. • Home Screen widgets • Lock Screen widgets • Live Activity • Dynamic Island • Siri and Shortcuts for starting, pausing, resuming and finishing sessions PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No ads.
