Focus Grove: Focus Timer
Calm focus timer that grows your desk grove
Focus Grove is a calm focus timer inspired by the Pomodoro technique. Every study or work session earns XP that grows your own cozy desk grove: plants, stationery and decor that unlock as you make real progress.
Choose a 15, 25, 50 or 90-minute session, or Flow, an open-ended timer that counts up until you finish. Tag each session (Maths, Coding, Reading…) to see where your focus goes, and keep your timer in view with a Live Activity on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Streaks, weekly charts, a yearly heatmap and a shareable card show your progress.
No accounts, no signups and no cloud: your sessions, XP and stats stay on your device, and you can back them up to Files, iCloud Drive or Google Drive and restore them on a new phone.
Free to download. By using Focus Grove, you agree to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy.
