FocusForce+

What FocusForce+ is

FocusForce+ is a free Android app that combines routines, to-dos, app blocking, focus sessions, and sleep scheduling. A routine starts with an alarm and gives each step a countdown. If a step runs over, its timer continues and reminders keep coming. Timed to-dos can use alarms, loose to-dos resurface during the day, and overdue items remain pinned until addressed.

App blocking can apply daily limits or fixed time windows, or activate automatically during routines and focus sessions. Groups of apps can share limits and schedules. Focus sessions can enable Do Not Disturb and block selected apps. Sleep mode schedules wind-down reminders, nighttime blocking, and wake-up routines. Invincible Mode can prevent an active routine, focus session, or blocking rule from being canceled or weakened before it ends.

The maker says the app has no internet permission, accounts, cloud sync, analytics, crash reporting, or advertising, and that app data stays on the device. You can export it as a plain JSON file and import it on another device. FocusForce+ supports Android 8.0 and newer, is distributed as a directly installed APK, and is in public beta. The maker describes it as a self-help tool, not a medical device or substitute for professional care.

Who it suits

FocusForce+ suits Android users looking for more structure through timed routines, resurfacing to-dos, app blocking, focus sessions, or sleep scheduling. Its maker also identifies people with ADHD, habit-control difficulties, or excessive phone use as intended users.

Getting started

1. Open the FocusForce+ website.
2. Get the APK from the project's GitHub release route.
3. Install the APK directly on a device running Android 8.0 or newer.
4. Grant Accessibility access if you want app blocking to detect which app is open.
5. Create routines, to-dos, focus sessions, app rules, or sleep schedules.
6. Export app data as JSON if you want to import it on another device.
7. Use Obtainium to watch GitHub releases and update the APK, as suggested by the maker.

Verdict

Choose FocusForce+ if you want routines, tasks, app controls, focus sessions, and sleep scheduling in one Android app, with data kept on-device. It is available as a direct APK and is in public beta, so the maker invites bug reports and feedback through GitHub issues. The maker describes it as a self-help tool rather than medical care.
