Focus Rebuild Plan, now research-backed

  • Four phases (Reset, Build, Extend, Sustain), each with guidance grounded in research on habits, goals and attention.
  • Levels unlock on evidence: 4 full blocks across 2+ days with a 70% completion rate. If a length keeps beating you, the plan steps back a level to rebuild confidence.
  • Your focus, measured: completion rate, longest unbroken stretch, pauses per block, start-time consistency and active days, against the previous week.
  • Sources for everything: every rule, break idea, phase and metric cites peer-reviewed studies. A Sources page lists all 22, with findings and a link to find each paper, plus an honest note on what the science doesn't say.

Themes

  • Choose from Obsidian, Ivory, Midnight, Forest, Ember, Sakura, Layla (Tiffany baby pink) and Écrin (jewel-box red and gold), Match system, or build a custom theme. Everything restyles instantly.
  • New installs get a welcome screen to pick a look and optionally start a focus plan.

Also

  • The day timeline can collapse into a slim rail (⌥⌘T).

Install

  1. Download Pomofocus.zip below and unzip it.
  2. Drag Pomofocus into Applications (replacing an older version keeps all your sessions).
  3. This build isn't notarized by Apple, so macOS blocks the first launch. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security and choose Open Anyway, or run: 
    xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/Pomofocus.app

Requires macOS 14 or later on Apple silicon.
