The focus app that removes the distraction, not just times it
A timer alone does not help when the distraction is one tap away. Lock In pairs a focus timer with real app blocking, so the thing pulling at your attention is gone for the length of the session. That is the difference between meaning to focus and actually doing it.
What makes Lock In a real focus app
Timer plus blocking
Set a session length and the apps you choose are blocked until it ends. The timer gives the work a shape, and the blocking makes the shape hold. Most focus apps only do the first half.
Conscious friction
You can still bail out if you truly need to, but it takes a deliberate hold. That pause is enough to catch yourself before a reflex check becomes a lost hour.
Streaks and rewards
Lock in once a day to grow your streak and earn minutes for the time you focus. Concentration becomes a habit with a reward attached, not a one-off act of discipline.
Focus with others
Start a group session or keep a friend streak so focus is shared, not solitary. A little accountability turns "I should focus" into "we are focusing right now."
Your first focus session
- Choose the apps that break your concentration.
- Set a timer for the work in front of you (try 50 minutes to start).
- Hit Lock In and give the task your full attention until the timer ends.
- Take a real break, then run it back. The streak rewards you for showing up daily.
