FocusClock

CELEST Watches

About this app

Remember when apps did one thing and did it well? FocusClock does two.

FocusClock is a minimalist desk companion that replaces your Always-On Display (AOD) with a large, easy-to-read clock and a built-in focus countdown that keeps you on track. No AI, no blockchain, and no subscriptions.

THE DUAL PURPOSE:

- The Big Clock: A high-visibility display showing the current time and your next calendar event. It replaces your phone’s standard AOD while docked.
- The Focus Timer: A Pomodoro-style countdown displayed alongside the clock, guiding your work and break sessions.

WHAT IT DOES:

- Desk Mode: Open it when you sit down to work. A clean, readable clock visible from across the room.
- Info Stack: Below the time, see the date, battery level, and your next calendar meeting so you always know when your focus session ends.
- Focus Sessions: Default 25-minute timer, fully customizable.
- Break Handling: Short and long breaks are automatically managed.
- Screen Protection: Includes pixel-shift technology to help protect OLED displays.

HOW TO USE:

- Change Phase manually... if you want to: Tap the phase icon (focus, short break, long break).
- Settings: Swipe down to access configuration options.
- Exit: Press the power button to close the app.

WHAT IT DOESN’T DO:

- Charge a monthly fee.
- Show ads while you’re trying to concentrate.
- Track or sell user data.
- Add unnecessary gamification elements.
- Require an account or login.

DESIGNED FOR DESK DOCKS:

Place your phone on a charger, open FocusClock, and start working. That’s the entire workflow. It creates a clear visual signal that you’re focusing.

FEATURES THAT ARE SIMPLE AND EFFECTIVE:

- Calendar Integration: See exactly when your next meeting begins.
- OLED-Friendly Design: Pure black backgrounds and brightness controls.
- Customization: 1–120 minute intervals and multiple color themes.
- Stay Awake: The screen remains on while in desk mode.
- Orientation Support: Works in both portrait and landscape.
- Lightweight: Small download size.

PRICING:

One-time purchase. Use it without recurring fees.

NO-NONSENSE DESIGN:

❌ No subscriptions
❌ No AI features
❌ No analytics or tracking
❌ No ads
❌ No cloud sync

✅ Just a clock
✅ Just a timer
✅ Designed for desk use
✅ Simple and focused

IDEAL FOR:

- Office workers who want a visible focus indicator.
- Students managing study sessions.
- Desk dock users who want a functional clock.
- Anyone looking for a distraction-free focus tool.

TECHNICAL DETAILS:

- Works fully offline.
- Uses one optional permission: Calendar access (to display upcoming events).

PHILOSOPHY:

FocusClock is a tool, not a productivity platform. It shows the time, tracks your focus sessions, and stays out of the way. If you want a simple desk clock with a built-in focus timer and no extra distractions, FocusClock is designed for you.
