Store listing
By Christoph Hesse, from the App StoreDescription by Christoph Hesse Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Concentration has become rare. FocusPiece makes it visible. Set the timer, put your phone down and sink into your work. While you stay focused, a hidden masterpiece emerges from the mist, piece by piece. At the end of every session you hold a fully revealed work of art that you have earned.
No points. No aggressive streaks. No guilt. Just a calm, beautiful space for deep concentration.
HOW IT WORKS
• Choose your time: 15, 25, 45 or 60 minutes of undisturbed focus.
• Stay in the picture: as long as you remain in the app, the hidden painting sharpens with every minute. Leave, and the reveal gently pauses.
• Collect masterpieces: every completed session unlocks a work and places it in your personal gallery.
A GALLERY YOU EARN
Your collection does not fill up by chance, but through real concentration. Every unlocked work carries the date, the length of your session and the story behind the original. Browse van Gogh's "Almond Blossom", Hokusai's "Great Wave", Monet's "Sunrise", Friedrich's "Wanderer" and many more classics of art history: public-domain masterpieces, curated for quiet moments.
ON YOUR WRIST AS WELL
With Apple Watch you start, pause and follow a session without reaching for your iPhone. On the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island your progress stays in view.
DELIBERATELY MINIMAL
FocusPiece was designed around a single principle: nothing that distracts. Warm paper white, a calm terracotta accent, clear typography. No loud notifications, no endless statistics, no mechanics designed to hook you. The app steps back so your focus and the art can step forward.
