About

Focus Hotel

Features
Read full description

Focus Hotel gives your focus somewhere to go. Start a focus session and distracting apps are locked away until it ends. Complete it to earn Focusines, the currency you can spend on furniture, new outfits and, eventually, entirely new rooms. Most productivity apps ask you to be disciplined. This one gives you something to show for it. HOW IT WORKS โ€ข Choose how long you want to focus, then start. โ€ข Distracting apps stay blocked for the entire session. โ€ข Finish and earn the full reward. Cancel and earn nothing. No lecture, no broken streak, no guilt. โ€ข Spend what you earned in the store, then place every piece yourself, tile by tile. โ€ข Keep focusing and the hotel opens up: a living room, a kitchen and a bedroom of your own. YOU'RE NOT FOCUSING ALONE Other people's rooms are real places you can visit. See who is focusing right now, what they're working on and how far into their session they are. Say hello. Start your own session from their room and sit together while you both work. It's the quiet company of a library, on your phone. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT โ€ข No sign-up. No account, email or password. Open the app and you're in. โ€ข Works offline. Focusing, earning and decorating never require a connection. โ€ข Nothing is rented. Every piece you buy stays yours. โ€ข A world, not a dashboard. Cozy pixel art you actually want to look at. SEE YOUR PROGRESS Track minutes focused, sessions completed and your completion rate: the number that shows whether you're getting better at staying focused. ABOUT APP BLOCKING Deep Focus uses Apple's Screen Time controls to keep selected apps blocked while a session is running. You grant permission once, you can say no, and focus sessions still work without blocking. Focus Hotel is free. Focusines are earned by focusing. You can also buy them if you'd rather furnish your hotel faster. Build a room worth coming back to.

About

Kapi

Read full description

See how much time you spend studying, working and resting. Kapi measures each activity with a stopwatch that counts up, then shows your daily timeline and weekly activity totals. Every saved activity adds a little capybara to your daily room. START NOW, NAME IT WHEN YOU FINISH Tap to start the stopwatch. Finish when you are done, then choose an activity or give it your own name. Time spent naming the activity is not added to its duration. Your start time stays saved when you leave the app. LOOK BACK AT YOUR DAY AND WEEK See when each activity happened and how long it lasted. Review daily bars and activity totals in the weekly view. Add a missed activity or edit a saved activity and its start and end times. A LITTLE KAPI FOR EACH ACTIVITY Choose from 12 activities, including study, work, cooking, gaming, exercise and rest. Your saved activities bring capybaras into your daily room. Tap a Kapi to revisit its record. YOUR STOPWATCH ON THE HOME SCREEN Add a Kapi widget to see elapsed time and open the app. On iOS 17 or later, start and finish from the widget, then open Kapi to name the activity. SHARE YOUR LITTLE ROOM Turn a saved day into a portrait or square image. Add a caption and choose whether to include moment counts, recorded time and activity names. Save it to Photos or share it with the iOS share sheet. RECORD WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT Recording works offline, and activity records are stored on your device. Cloud sync and data-file export are not available. Removing the app can remove its local records; device backups are managed by your operating system. Available in English and Korean, following your device or app language settings. Support: pycraft114@gmail.com
