Focus Timer You Can See on the Lock Screen
Not just another countdown. Start a short focus session attached to one task, link it to an iOS Focus Mode to quiet distractions, and keep it in view on iPhone with Live Activities and Dynamic Island—with an alarm to call time when the session ends, where your device allows.
One task, one session
Pick the single thing you want to move forward and start a focus session on it. Tying the timer to one task keeps your next step close instead of leaving you with a bare clock and a blank mind.
Progress that stays visible
When you lock your phone, the session does not disappear. Live Activities and Dynamic Island keep the remaining time on your Lock Screen, and an alarm lets you know when the session is done—so you can look away without losing your place.
