Focus Terminal
A Mac focus timer where every session is a real flight
Most focus timers count down at you. Focus Terminal gives the time somewhere to go. Pick a task and a duration and you're booked on a flight to a real city that's genuinely that far away — 25 minutes reaches the next town, two hours crosses a border. Boarding pass, live map, passport stamp when you land. 1,152 real airports and real distances, all offline. Other flight-themed timers are free until the parts you want need a subscription. This is $2.99 once, no account, no ads, no tracking.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I built this because I could never stick with a normal timer. Watching a number count down just reminded me how much time I still had to sit through, and I'd quit halfway.
What fixed it for me was giving the time somewhere to go. Same 90 minutes, but now finishing means arriving somewhere instead of just running out. An abandoned session isn't a failure any more, it's a diversion, and that alone made it much easier to get back on.
Then I got carried away making it honest. It uses 1,152 real airports and real distances, so the duration you pick genuinely decides how far you can get. A 25-minute task can't put you in another country — it has to earn it.
On the price: the other flight-themed focus apps I tried were free until the parts I wanted needed a subscription. I didn't want to build something that had to keep pulling you back in, so it's $2.99 once and that's it. I'd rather you close the laptop and go do the work.
Would love to hear where you'd fly first, and I'm around all day for questions!
