FocusCat is a Pomodoro timer and app blocker for Mac, with a cat companion that stays by your side while you work or study. Choose a task, start a 25-minute focus session, and take a break when the timer ends. Use the classic 25/5 rhythm or adjust the intervals to fit your work. POMODORO AND COUNTDOWN TIMERS Choose the classic Pomodoro cycle, a simple countdown, or progressive sessions that adapt to how focused you feel. Adjust work and break lengths, set an intention, and decide whether sessions advance automatically. BLOCK DISTRACTING APPS Create focus profiles for deep work, studying, or anything else that needs your attention. Assign distracting apps and schedule profiles to activate when you need them. UNDERSTAND YOUR FOCUS TIME Review completed sessions and see which apps were active while you worked. Use the activity timeline to spot patterns without sending your data to an external service. SET A DAILY FOCUS GOAL Choose an optional daily target and see your progress without streaks, penalties, or another system to maintain. MAKE THE CAT YOURS Choose different faces and hats. Optional timer ticks, completion sounds, and meows give each session a little personality. PRIVATE BY DESIGN FocusCat stores its data on your Mac. No account is required. The app is open source, so you can inspect how it works.
