Cute little apps.
Big distractions.

Give your focus some space

A fence for every part of your day

Different places.
Different rules.

Your school day, workday, and downtime don’t need the same distractions.

School, work, and home each have their own fence, location pin, and different distracting apps outside.

School

Less scrolling.
More paying attention.

Work

Keep the tools.
Skip the rabbit holes.

Home

Put down the feed.
Be where you are.

App gremlins sleep on pillows outside a white fence while someone rests in a cozy home under the moon.

Fences on a schedule

A little extra calm

A calmer
Home Screen, too.

Dean, the maker of Focus Fence

Made by a human who needed it

Hey, I’m Dean.

I built Focus Fence because one quick check of my phone kept turning into twenty minutes. I wanted fewer distractions in the places where I wanted to be present.

So I made a little boundary that turns on when I arrive. If you need help or have an idea, I’m the person on the other end of hello@getfocusphone.com.

Less scrolling. More living. — Dean
