About this app

Focus Friend is a cozy, gamified focus timer created by online educator Hank Green!

When you Focus, your Bean Friend will Focus. If you interrupt your Bean by turning off the timer, they'll be really really sad.

Complete your focus session, and this cute Bean will give you prizes to buy decorations to help furnish their room.

Perfect for anyone ...

I bought this app based on a video of Hank advertising it and honestly felt like giving it a shot. While it seemed like a cute concept ultimately fell a bit flat. First of all, something not really mentioned in the glowing reviews, is that a majority of the best features are locked behind a pay wall. Second of all, if you study quite a bit, say 4-5 hours a day, you'll find that you'll decorate the house pretty quick. There's better apps out there that lock your phone like Yeolpumta.

Love this cute app. I'm another user waiting for more rooms. It would be super helpful to get a glimpse at your roadmap or otherwise hear about where you're at with development and features. I just spent 20 minutes (on my phone lol) trying to find a platform or channel—community, basically—for this app!

Serves its base function as a focus app wonderfully, you can tell this was made by a team that understands ADHD. The funny portion of the app could use some quality-of-life updates. Highly recommend buying the 2-dollar monthly subscription, and if you don't like it you can always cancel.

i like it a lot, the idea that you decorate your little apartment is lovely! i do think it is kind of annoying that you cannot edit your allowed list without paying. Also i would love to see more options for decorating the living room. I think this could use another basic style and not just lo-fi or greenhouse.:) thank you for the cute app!

I like the idea but it has one small nitpick and one large issue for me. 1. there is no exit button. You need to swipe from the bottom up to close it with the android functionality. 2. I noticed the app timer stops or doesn't notify the user when the time is done when the screen is off. I'll not keep the screen on for the duration of a timer so the app doesn't work for me.

I like this app a lot, but I have one feature request: Can Mr Focus Bean have a mode where I can set an alarm and when the alarm is cancelled it goes straight into focus mode? So that when I wake up on a Sunday morning I don't waste an hour+ of my life doomscrolling before I realise I should get Mr Bean knitting.

it's good enough yet lacks any sort of interface to track your sessions within a period of time, which is quite generalised in other apps that do the same. Yet I do enjoy the UI. The addition of tracking your time across a period of time would be extremely useful though.

I'm a graduate student, and this app has helped me focus on my studies. I paid a one-time fee for the paid version, and I already got my money's worth. I am almost done with the second room, and I hope more rooms will be added. Thanks for creating this app!
