TIMER FOR WORK & STUDY

YOU FOCUS.
I’LL FIX THE HOTEL.

Friendly Focus is a cozy focus timer. Start a session and Casey β€” a bellhop suitcase with big dreams β€” gets to work restoring a forgotten mountain hotel. Every focused minute earns a medallion. Every medallion wakes another corner of the place up.

HOW IT WORKS

THE DEAL

A FORGOTTEN HOTEL. A SUITCASE WITH A PLAN.

Casey travelled all their life, then found an empty hotel in the mountains and spent every last saving on it. Now it needs everything β€” and Casey, frankly, gets distracted. (“Have you really looked at thumbs? So exciting.”) So here’s the arrangement: you focus, Casey works. No lectures, no guilt, no streak-shaming. Just lights coming on in the windows, one session at a time.

The hotel restored: warm lit windows, flower boxes, brass bell
A FEW HUNDRED MEDALLIONS LATER

HOW IT WORKS

THREE STEPS. NO HOMEWORK.

1
The Focus Lift: a brass-and-burgundy timer dial set to a session length

SET THE FOCUS LIFT

Pick 5 to 120 minutes on a proper brass dial. Press START and the lift takes Casey down to work.

2

LEAVE THE PHONE ALONE

Casey polishes, sweeps and folds towels while the clock runs. Leave the app and the session fails β€” all or nothing, kindly.

COLLECT MEDALLIONS

About a medallion a minute, paid on the spot. Spend them on furniture, souvenirs and whole new rooms.

TRY ME. TEN SECONDS.

A TINY TASTE

FOCUS FOR 10 SECONDS

00:10

Casey will do the towels. You do the staring.

DEEP FOCUS

YOUR APPS CAN WAIT IN THE LOBBY.

Turn on App Blocking and Friendly Focus uses real iOS Screen Time to shield your chosen apps for the length of the session. Wander into Instagram and you don’t get a feed β€” you get Casey.

  • Real Family Controls shielding, not an honor system
  • You pick exactly which apps get shielded
  • Blocked sessions pay 2Γ— medallions
  • The shield always lifts when the session ends

SPEND IT WELL

FOURTEEN ROOMS TO WAKE UP.

Kitchen, spa, ballroom, library, greenhouse, rooftop… every room starts as a dusty shell you can peek into. Unlock them, then furnish them piece by piece β€” armchairs, chandeliers, a piano, a wine rack you will absolutely earn.

The Gift Shop: souvenir cards like the bellhop cap and brass key fob

THE STAFF

MEET CASEY. AND THE DOG.

Name your companion at the Valet and pick from fifteen body styles β€” steamer trunk, hat box, violin case, picnic hamper. Casey’s puns are terrible and deliberately never about focusing; the dog sleeps on the rug, delivers one groaner when tapped, and otherwise minds its own business.
