Focus Bear vs Normal

Focus Bear is a productivity and work-life-balance app for morning habits, focused work, and evening technology shutoff. It blocks distracting websites and apps across devices using block lists, allow lists, and a stricter Grizzly Bear mode. Customizable morning and evening routines guide users through habits one at a time. The app suggests breaks, detects hyperfocus, and suppresses reminders during meetings. Starting a computer deep-work block can automatically put a phone into Zen mode and block distracting apps. Focus Bear says cloud sync keeps data and focus modes synchronized across devices. It says it does not log keystrokes or take screenshots, and records only user-provided Focus Block and quantified-self information. Calendar events with fbtrigger followed by a habit or focus-mode name can trigger an activity through Late No More. The app is designed by and for people with ADHD. Essentials is free; Pro costs $9.99 a month and adds unlimited blocking, AI-powered blocking, focus modes, focus music, meeting detection, and accountability-partner features. A seven-day trial is also listed. It runs on Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows.
