Tiny doses of done.

The Dopodoro flow

One calm loop, not a feature list.

Most focus apps assume you’ve already started. Dopodoro is built around the part that’s actually hard, and around never punishing you when you slip.

  1. 01

    Decide

    “What do I even do right now?”

    A quiet morning brief, a brain dump that turns mess into a list, and a pick-for-me that chooses one thing, and tells you why.

  2. 02

    Enter

    “Okay… starting is hard.”

    Just 5 minutes is a doorway, not a mountain. A soundscape some brains find helpful sets the room, and the calm dial begins.

  3. 03

    Stay

    “Don’t let me drift.”

    Park a stray thought without leaving. Screen Time blocking holds the door. Add five minutes instead of breaking the spell.

  4. 04

    Learn

    “Did that even count?”

    Every session ends with a spark, then joins your focus history. A private, on-device weekly review shows when you actually focus best, no scorecard.

…and a quiet record of your focus pulls you back tomorrow.

Three small things that change the day.

Focus history

A calm daily chart and a heatmap of when you focus best. Gentle streaks with a grace day, no empty day to dread.

Just 5 minutes

25 minutes is a mountain. Five is a doorway.

Park a thought

A thought hits at minute 11. Say it, it’s saved, you never left.

On-device AI Private · works offline

On-device AI for the stuck moments.

Small AI helpers, each built for one moment of the loop. They run privately on your phone, show up when you’re stuck, then get out of your way.

  • Pick one for me chooses your next task, with a reason
  • Break it down turns a scary task into tiny steps
  • Brain dump turns a mess of thoughts into a list
  • Just 5 minutes a doorway when 25 is a mountain
  • Park a thought catches strays mid-session
  • Weekly review shows when you actually focus best

Five things a web app can’t copy.

On-device AI

Apple’s Foundation Models do the thinking on your phone. No cloud, no account, no “we promise we don’t log it.”

Soundscape engine

Binaural beats, isochronic tones, and nature ambience, generated on-device. Some brains find they help the room go quiet.

Liquid Glass

Apple’s Liquid Glass on the controls, a warm colour mesh beneath. Native, calm, unmistakably Dopodoro.

Apple ecosystem

Live Activities, widgets, Control Center, Shortcuts, Focus filters. The timer lives where you live.

Tasks, stats & helpers

An ADHD-friendly task system, honest gentle stats, and small AI helpers: the substrate everything else serves.

The actual app

Real pixels, warm paper.

Three screens straight from the app. No mockups.

The Today screen: a Good morning brief with one task up now, a Start focus button next to "or just 5 min", and the rest of the day in a timeline
Your morning brief
A running focus session: the calm dial at 17:32, round 1 of 4, with the Deep Focus soundscape in a now-playing bar
Mid-focus, soundscape on
The Stats screen: 16 hours focused across 41 sessions, a focus-by-day bar chart, and a consistency heatmap of when focus lands
When you focus best

No accounts. No servers. No tracking. Your focus stays on your phone, because it can’t leave.

Free is the whole working app.

The timer, the AI helpers, honest focus stats, and a starter soundscape set: free. Dopodoro+ is patronage for people who want to back a one-person operation. It adds the full soundscape library and generator, custom focus profiles, gradient palettes, unlimited projects, and your full focus history.
