Hey everyone, I'm Michael! 👋 Introducing focusOS - a Mac/iPhone/iPad app that hides all distractions with one click. 🖱️ I've used many apps to try and improve my focus over the years, but eventually give up using them since they can become a hassle to set up every time when I just wanted to get work done. So I created a simple utility that seamlessly hides distractions on my devices with the flick of a switch! With one click focusOS can; 👉 Dim inactive apps, limit visible apps, hide the wallpaper (on Mac) 👉 Block apps & websites that waste my time 👉 Automatically turn on Do Not Disturb 👉 Listen to ambient sounds to drown out noisy surroundings 👉 Apply the above across my devices focusOS feels like a simple operating system for my productivity that I can share across any device I work from. (and felt like a no brainer to name it as such!) There are also a lot of customisation options to craft the perfect environment for focusing, and you can quickly adjust things on-the-fly from the menu bar popover. I also highly recommend trying out the Cafe ambient sound too, which is my favourite! It makes it feel like you're working from a cafe / coworking space, and I've found it super handy for drowning out noisy people in the background. This all being said, please go and try it out 😊 It's available for Mac, iPhone, and iPad, and most of the features above are free (except for linking multiple devices), which you can upgrade at the huge existing discount to celebrate this launch! I'm suuuper excited to launch focusOS on Product Hunt today. Drop a comment below if you have any questions or feedback - I'll be keeping a keen eye and get back to y'all. Thank you so much! 🙏 🚀

Congratulations on the launch. The most viral thing is adding stats. How much charge was saved, concentration time, efficiency. It's certainly an extra level of distraction from tasks, but it can be useful to learn and to share on social media. Much success to you.

Oh wow, congrats. Add it to Productivity Directory

You got my upvote !! Just a quick suggestion let me decide which applications is a distraction for me. Like if it dim facebook cuz I've used it for long hours but I've to use it to make market funnels and shows a graph which tells me how much time I've spent. Btw name is really good focusOS just like it's work. Best of luck for your journey.

@teeeeeegz congrats on the launch, really like the design (of the website too). Upvoted!

This is the dream! Getting into the focus state is euphoric, but getting there with all the distractions around us today is ... pretty tough. Love this product!!

I like the mission here! 😍

congratulations on the launch of focusos, michael. it sounds like a must-have for the multitasking generation. i'm curious, do you have plans to integrate focusos with other productivity tools or platforms? this could streamline workflows even further.

Thanks for creating this app Michael! This app has boosted productivity by removing distractions.

Hit that upvote for sure. Cutting through the noise with one click is every multi-tasker's dream. How exactly does it figure out what's a distraction and what's essential? Does it also work with other devices, or is it just for Mac for now?

Congrats on the launch! Looking forward to try this.

Congrats on the launch! Does anyone else love how it integrates with your entire Apple ecosystem seamlessly?

Tried the platform. Looks cool. Also wanted to understand more about the app. Clearly, majority of the features are common with native focus apps. Also felt that, an apple watch app can make the experience much better

Wow, I need this app asap, my focus and concentration has gone somewhere else with all the social media present nowadays

Productivity influencers like Ali Abdaal and Easlo would love using this.

Amazing, tried it today, and loved it! Super simple and I had some intense hours of focused work! Incredible how does Slack messages just throws you off... I have a feeling I'll be using this quite a lot :)

Congratulations on the launch! I've been using focusOS for a few days, and it’s been incredibly helpful in keeping my distractions in check. It's so easy to open just one distracting app without thinking and then fall down the rabbit hole of using all of them. But now focusOS stops me from doing that. What I like most about focusOS is how easy it is to set up. Great work, Michael!

Been using these throughout the beta period and honestly love it. Super handy!!

The seamless integration of focusOS across my devices is fantastic. It’s made staying focused much simpler. Congrats, Michael!

This would help to improve concentration and productivity. Kudos to you Michael for creating this.
