Want to work from your Mac without being interrupted by random distractions? focusedOS has your back by seamlessly adjusting your devices for productivity, and hiding all distractions with one click.
Hey everyone, I'm Michael! 👋
Introducing focusOS - a Mac/iPhone/iPad app that hides all distractions with one click. 🖱️
I've used many apps to try and improve my focus over the years, but eventually give up using them since they can become a hassle to set up every time when I just wanted to get work done.
So I created a simple utility that seamlessly hides distractions on my devices with the flick of a switch!
With one click focusOS can;
👉 Dim inactive apps, limit visible apps, hide the wallpaper (on Mac)
👉 Block apps & websites that waste my time
👉 Automatically turn on Do Not Disturb
👉 Listen to ambient sounds to drown out noisy surroundings
👉 Apply the above across my devices
focusOS feels like a simple operating system for my productivity that I can share across any device I work from. (and felt like a no brainer to name it as such!)
There are also a lot of customisation options to craft the perfect environment for focusing, and you can quickly adjust things on-the-fly from the menu bar popover.
I also highly recommend trying out the Cafe ambient sound too, which is my favourite!
It makes it feel like you're working from a cafe / coworking space, and I've found it super handy for drowning out noisy people in the background.
This all being said, please go and try it out 😊
It's available for Mac, iPhone, and iPad, and most of the features above are free (except for linking multiple devices), which you can upgrade at the huge existing discount to celebrate this launch!
I'm suuuper excited to launch focusOS on Product Hunt today.
Drop a comment below if you have any questions or feedback - I'll be keeping a keen eye and get back to y'all.
Thank you so much! 🙏 🚀
Congratulations on the launch. The most viral thing is adding stats. How much charge was saved, concentration time, efficiency. It's certainly an extra level of distraction from tasks, but it can be useful to learn and to share on social media.
Much success to you.
@ruslan_kulikov Appreciate the great feedback Ruslan, thank you!
I did consider capturing stats quite deeply early on into the prototype that I put together, but they didn't make it into the MVP.
However, I do think they'd great for sharing on socials if I can nail it. Perhaps a simple dashboard that shows things including what you mentioned.
Will mull over this further!
I like the dimming feature that suppresses all "shiny" things in the background so I can better concentrate on my foreground screen and tasks that truly matter. 😊
Inspired us to take the next step beyond app & website blocking, with further reducing visual distractions on iOS by simplifying the UI of your phone. 🛑
