CLUSTER DISTRACTIONS-FOCUS-PRODUCTIVITY · 18 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2026-04-18

focus session and distraction blocking apps

This cluster consists of apps that help users track focus sessions, block distractions, and improve productivity. Dated entries show an isolated creation in 2018, followed by a cluster of entries from early 2025 to early 2026, with a few per quarter—indicating steady but modest activity in that period. The traction leaders, fokus, Freedom: Screen Time Control, and companion, all show zero stars, so none have significant traction. fokus ranks first in activity signal among them.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
