Bear Focus Timer: Work & Study

Bear Focus Timer starts a configurable focus session when an iPhone is placed face down.

Our take

Pick it for a simple physical starting ritual

Adjustable work-and-break cycles, optional nature noise and illustrated rewards support a defined period on one task.

Keep in mind: Turning over a phone is a reminder, not proof that distracting apps are blocked; watch alerts depend on device settings.

  • Custom focus and break lengths
  • Optional nature noise and praise cards

Good for

  • People who prefer a quiet Pomodoro timer with little screen interaction

  • Turning over a phone is a reminder, not proof that distracting apps are blocked; watch alerts depend on device settings.

Privacy & permissions
