Note: Some mobile phone manufacturers (like Huawei, Xiaomi) take very aggressive measures against apps that need to run in the background, to save battery life. If Foca App gets killed, please follow the steps below to improve stability:

1. Turn off battery saving mode.
2. Lock the app on the multi-task screen.

Or you can turn on the "Screen Always On" switch in the settings, to avoid background running.

Ratings and reviews

This app is amazing. Foca has helped so much in keeping me focused when studying, and that's saying a lot since I tend to have trouble actually focusing and getting work done when I'm at home. The format is minimalistic, and just overall really nice to use, especially since there aren't any ads. Honestly, just try it out and see how you like it, if you change your mind you could always delete it, but its definitely worth giving a try.

Changing my rating from 5 stars down to 3 because I reinstalled the app after a while without it and despite purchasing the pro version back in 2021, the app acts like the free version. I emailed them over a week ago (September 13th, 2022), even sent a follow up email a few days later, and it's been radio silence. I love the app, but this issue is causing me to walk away from it. I hope it's resolved soon.

I downloaded this app in hopes that it would help with my bad study habits. I am impressed with the app so far! It has 4 timed intervals and then timed breaks in between each interval which has helped to keep me focused and less distracted! I've only used this app once so far and my only complaint is that during one of the breaks I accidentally closed out my apps on my phone and lost all of the progress that I made so I was not able to finish the 4th interval. Please have it automatically save!
