First binary release of ADHD Focus, a lightweight macOS menu bar app for blocking distractions.

Install

  1. Download ADHD-Focus-v0.1.0.zip below and unzip it.
  2. Drag ADHD Focus.app to your Applications folder (or Desktop).
  3. First launch: right-click the app → Open → Open. This is needed because the app is not notarized (no paid Apple Developer account); macOS Gatekeeper will warn otherwise.

Alternatively, clear the quarantine flag from Terminal:

xattr -d com.apple.quarantine "/Applications/ADHD Focus.app"

Requirements

  • macOS 13 (Ventura) or later
  • Works on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs (universal binary)
  • Starting focus prompts for an administrator password — the app edits /etc/hosts to hard-block domains

Features

  • Hard domain blocking via a marked section in /etc/hosts
  • Smart path blocking (e.g. block youtube.com/shorts only) via AppleScript browser control
  • Plain JSON config at ~/Library/Application Support/ADHD Focus/config.json
