your attention.

How it works
Three taps between you and a calmer day.
01
Tap to start
Hold your iPhone against the card. The app opens, the session begins, distracting apps are blocked.
02
Focus
Read, work, eat, talk, sleep. Put the phone down. The card stays on your desk, in your pocket, by your bed.
03
Tap to end
When you're done, tap the card again. The session closes. No streaks, no shame, no graphs.
Two colourways
Pick one. They both work the same.
Your phone is fine. So is the internet. You just want a little more space between you and the next pickup.
