About this app

Ever find yourself staring at the same page for 20 minutes, realizing you haven't processed a single word? Focusability is a first-of-its-kind productivity tool designed to keep your mind on track using an innovative "Active Monitoring" method.

Whether you are a student, a researcher, or a professional, Focusability helps you build a disciplined work habit by keeping your mind physically and mentally engaged with your task.

HOW IT WORKS: THE POWER OF ACTIVE FOCUS

Most people stop speaking the moment they drift into a daydream. Focusability uses this pattern to your advantage:

• Activate the Focus Booster: Start your task and commit to studying or reading out loud.

• Stay Alert: The app monitors your activity. If you fall silent, Focusability detects the lapse and triggers an alert.

• Refocus Instantly: A gentle nudge brings you back to the present moment, saving you hours of wasted time.

(Note: Do you tend to daydream out loud? Use our Reverse Alarm mode to stay on task your way.)

WHY CHOOSE FOCUSABILITY?

• Eliminate Time-Wasting: Stop the cycle of "zoning out" and finish hours of study sessions and work in half the time.

• Build Deep Work Habits: Train your brain to sustain high-level concentration for longer periods.

• Productivity Analytics: Track your progress and see exactly how much focused time you’ve gained.

• Privacy Focused: Your audio is processed locally to detect focus levels—we never record or store your speech.

PERFECT FOR:

• Studying & Memorization: Keep your mind sharp while reviewing notes.

• Technical Reading: Stay engaged with complex materials.

• Writing & Drafting: Verbalize your thoughts to keep the creative flow moving.

• Professional Deep Work: Reach a "flow state" faster and stay there longer.

A MESSAGE FROM THE DEVELOPER:

"I created Focusability to solve my own struggle with daydreaming. It saved me hours of lost productivity every day, and I built this app to help you do the same. Focusability isn't a cure, but it is a powerful tool to help you stay disciplined and reach your goals."

Hi there! I really appreciate you taking the time and writing this review. I work hard on improving the app, and your feedback helps. A new update is available, and the bug should be fixed. I hope you will try it and update me on whether the app still crashes on your device.

Hey Im trying to use the app but honestly it doesn't say much what everything is and how to use it. Next, I dont know why but when I turn the Focus booster it goes off when zi speak? isnt it suppose to do the opposite. It says speak, if you stop the sound goes off. its not doing that for me. I really want to use this app its loud the noise grabs my attention it but its not working.

Thanks a lot for your feedback! ☺️ The text length here is limited, so I can't answer all your questions here. The idea is that many MDers like me daydream in silence, so the app is designed to alarm you when we are not speaking. However, it's the opposite for others, so you can reverse the alarm in the "Options" ⚙️ screen. e.yusef@focusability.org
