About this app

Focus Friend is a cozy, gamified focus timer created by online educator Hank Green!

When you Focus, your Bean Friend will Focus. If you interrupt your Bean by turning off the timer, they'll be really really sad.

Complete your focus session, and this cute Bean will give you prizes to buy decorations to help furnish their room.

Perfect for anyone who struggles with long sessions of concentration. Focus Friend is for students and beyond.

Features:
- Live Activity: See your timer progress when your phone is locked
- Deep Focus Mode: Lock distracting apps during your focus sessions
- Break Timers: Decorate on your breaks, using the Pomodoro method of productivity
- Hundreds of decorations: Decorate your room in different fun themes
- Bean Skins: Try on different Bean types to customize your Focus Friend (Coffee Bean, Edamame Bean, Pinto Bean, Kitty Bean, or even Hank and John Green... Or rather Hank and John Bean!)

Focus Friend will even help you with getting started on your tasks and getting into the flow of your work or studying or even chores.

Stay Focused, Have Fun, Drink Water, and Don't Forget to be Awesome~

LOVE IT! Such a cute way to stay focused and accountable. Customization is such a huge motivator for people like me so more bean options like color, shape, outfits, or facial expressions would be great! I would also really appreciate a slightly more in-depth tracking system, with data about the time you spent focusing (weekly or monthly graphs) and on what subject (studying, hobbies, cleaning, etc.). Can't wait to see what the future holds!

I LOVE this app and I love my bean!! I really appreciate how decor themes can be mixed & matched and still look good together. Too many apps only let you choose between different theme elements that clash, so you don't actually have much of a choice. My one request (which is related to so many items looking good together!!) is to be able to preview new pieces in the room before purchasing.

I'd been searching for a focus app desperately and then, like magic, I find out one of my favorite celebrities has made an app for EXACTLY my needs. I'm a knitter. Destroying knitting? Unfathomable. I will protect this bean's knitting at all costs. Which is why this app is PERFECT. 11/10. Bless you, Hank. Thanks! Edit: I do wish we could change the wallpaper and flooring colors in our rooms. 💜
