Hey everyone, I'm Michael! 👋 Introducing focusOS - a Mac/iPhone/iPad app that hides all distractions with one click. 🖱️ I've used many apps to try and improve my focus over the years, but eventually give up using them since they can become a hassle to set up every time when I just wanted to get work done. So I created a simple utility that seamlessly hides distractions on my devices with the flick of a switch! With one click focusOS can; 👉 Dim inactive apps, limit visible apps, hide the wallpaper (on Mac) 👉 Block apps & websites that waste my time 👉 Automatically turn on Do Not Disturb 👉 Listen to ambient sounds to drown out noisy surroundings 👉 Apply the above across my devices focusOS feels like a simple operating system for my productivity that I can share across any device I work from. (and felt like a no brainer to name it as such!) There are also a lot of customisation options to craft the perfect environment for focusing, and you can quickly adjust things on-the-fly from the menu bar popover. I also highly recommend trying out the Cafe ambient sound too, which is my favourite! It makes it feel like you're working from a cafe / coworking space, and I've found it super handy for drowning out noisy people in the background. This all being said, please go and try it out 😊 It's available for Mac, iPhone, and iPad, and most of the features above are free (except for linking multiple devices), which you can upgrade at the huge existing discount to celebrate this launch! I'm suuuper excited to launch focusOS on Product Hunt today. Drop a comment below if you have any questions or feedback - I'll be keeping a keen eye and get back to y'all. Thank you so much! 🙏 🚀

Good luck with the launch! I normally play Youtube videos of rain when I work to help me focus, so it's nice you have a couple in the app you can listen too.

congratulations on the launch of focusos, michael. it sounds like a must-have for the multitasking generation. i'm curious, do you have plans to integrate focusos with other productivity tools or platforms? this could streamline workflows even further.

Was just wishing for something like this. Can you touch on what your tracking of user purchase history is used for?

Interesting! How does focusOS seamlessly integrate across Mac, iPhone, and iPad to ensure a consistent distraction-free environment on all devices?

@teeeeeegz What a great demo :D I love zero inbox and focus, yesterday i had a client incident reporting an issue, so i jumped to check it. The problem is that i was opening a lot of tabs on my mac which made it almost impossible to focus on understanding what going on, so i wish i had tis 1 click focus app ! Glad to discover this tool, i'll give it a try asap :)

This is the dream! Getting into the focus state is euphoric, but getting there with all the distractions around us today is ... pretty tough. Love this product!!

This seems like a really great tool to help with studying for college students 😂 Congrats on launch!!
