Phase Timer
The Phase Timer in FocusNPlay alternates between LOCK (study) and PLAY (reward) phases, helping you balance focused learning with earned screen time.
During the LOCK phase, your selected apps stay blocked until you complete your study tasks. When the PLAY phase begins, you can use those apps for the time you've earned.
The Phase Timer turns your day into structured blocks of productivity and reward, reducing endless scrolling and making both study and leisure more intentional.
