FocusPhone blocks the apps that steal your attention — not with gamified trees or subscriptions, but with a strict, no-escape focus mode. Pick your timer on a distraction-free countdown ring, and FocusPhone locks out chosen apps until time's up. Strict Mode stops you from bailing early when willpower fades. Track daily focus minutes and distractions dodged, with your history backed up via Cloud Sync. Built for students and anyone who needs their phone to stop fighting them.
