FocusClock

Remember when apps did one thing and did it well? FocusClock does two.

FocusClock is a minimalist desk companion that replaces your Always-On Display (AOD) with a large, easy-to-read clock and a built-in focus countdown that keeps you on track. No AI, no blockchain, and no subscriptions.

THE DUAL PURPOSE:

- The Big Clock: A high-visibility display showing the current time and your next calendar event. It replaces your phone’s standard AOD while docked.

- The Focus Timer: A Pomodoro-style countdown displayed alongside the clock, guiding your work and break sessions.

WHAT IT DOES:

- Desk Mode: Open it when you sit down to work. A clean, readable clock visible from across the room.

- Info Stack: Below the time, see the date, battery level, and your next calendar meeting so you always know when your focus session ends.

- Focus Sessions: Default 25-minute timer, fully customizable.

- Break Handling: Short and long breaks are automatically managed.

- Screen Protection: Includes pixel-shift technology to help protect OLED displays.

- The app adapts to your device language and is available in multiple languages. Translations are provided via Google Play to make the app accessible worldwide.
