Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm Clive Jesus, and I built Cadence because I kept abandoning focus apps — they either wanted an account before I could start, or turned studying into a game I didn't want to play.
Cadence is a calm, offline-first focus timer for students. You can open it and start a session without signing up. Tasks, sessions, and streaks live on your device first; accounts are only there if you want to sync across devices.
A few things I'm genuinely proud of:
- Soft classical soundscapes are free during launch — real public-domain pieces (Satie, Beethoven, Pachelbel) plus original cinematic piano.
- A focus shield that knows the difference between switching apps and your screen simply turning off. It nudges you when you wander; it leaves you alone when you're just resting your eyes.
- Real push reminders at local times — a 4pm nudge and a 6pm recap — not a stream of pings.
- Guest mode, because a timer shouldn't need your email.
It's an installable PWA, so you can add it to your home screen like an app. On iPhone, push notifications need iOS 16.4+ and an installed app — that's an Apple limitation, not a Cadence one.
The core app is free. Pro is optional and keeps the lights on.
I'd love your honest feedback: what would make you actually keep using a focus timer after week one? I'll be here all day. 🌱
