Focus Traveller review: price, free version and privacy

Our verdict

Pick Focus Traveller if you study better with friends and want a gentle, good-looking timer for little money. If you need to block distracting apps or manage tasks, look at a blocker or a timer with a to-do list.

What Focus Traveller is

Focus Traveller turns a focus session into a hike: the longer you focus, the higher your traveller climbs through seasonal scenes. You can invite up to 10 friends to a Focused Travel Group and focus together in real time. It offers a countdown or an open-ended stopwatch, Apple Music playback, daily logs, widgets and a General Focus Mode that keeps the session going when you switch apps.
