CineFocus: Deep Focus Timer
Study, Pomodoro & App Blocker
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
CineFocus turns deep work into a cinema ritual. Pick a session, take your seat, tear the ticket — and stay until the credits roll. A focus timer and app blocker for people who want a ritual, not another Pomodoro.
Every session is a showing. Every completed session is a memory. Over time, your focus becomes your favourite habit.
A FOCUS RITUAL UNLIKE ANY OTHER Choose your session length, pick your seat, select your focus type, and tear the cinema ticket to begin. It's deep work, reimagined as cinema — a Pomodoro alternative that doesn't feel like a spreadsheet.
IMMERSIVE FOCUS ENVIRONMENTS Sit in a quiet cinema. Park at the drive-in under the stars. Each environment is designed to pull you into flow state and keep distractions at the door.
BLOCK THE NOISE Lock out social apps, games, and anything else that steals your attention. Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Reddit — silenced until the credits roll. Powered by Apple Screen Time.
BUILT FOR HOW YOU FOCUS
* Deep Work — long, uninterrupted blocks for your hardest tasks
* Revision — exams, coursework, reading, essay writing
* Meditation — quiet, intentional sessions
* Reading — finish that book, one showing at a time
* Creative Flow — writing, designing, making
* Exercise — time-boxed movement
TRACK YOUR SHOWINGS See your weekly runtime, daily streak, session count, and genre breakdown. Every session adds up. Every streak tells a story. Perfect for building a deep work habit that actually sticks.
WIDGETS, LOCK SCREEN & STANDBY Glance at your current session from your Lock Screen, Home Screen, Dynamic Island, or StandBy. Live Activities keep your focus always in view.
MADE FOR Students pulling late-night revision sessions. Writers and designers chasing flow. Remote workers drowning in Teams and Slack. Readers reclaiming an hour with a proper book. Anyone with ADHD who needs a ritual, not a reminder.
WHY CINEFOCUS IS DIFFERENT Other focus timers feel like chores. CineFocus feels like a ritual you actually look forward to. The ticket, the seat, the screen — small details that make deep focus something you genuinely want to do. No gamified guilt. No dying trees. No airport check-ins. Just you, in the best seat in the house.
Turn your phone into a cinema. Turn your focus into a feature film.
Get your ticket. Take your seat. The show starts when you do.
