Welcome to DeepFocus! This guide will help you learn how to use the app. Open it anytime with the Tutorial button above your task list.
Click the "Add New Task" button on the left side. Give your task a name (like "Math Homework") and set how many minutes you want to focus. You can also add a deadline if needed!
After adding a task, click Start next to it. Then press Start on the center timer to begin focusing.
If you get distracted, use I got distracted. Choose what pulled you away (for example Phone or Boredom). That helps you see patterns over time.
When you finish a focus session, you can rate how well you focused (1–5 stars) and choose what helped you focus, like quiet space or music. That data powers your reports.
On the right, open the Insights report for distractions, focus helpers, productivity trends, and coaching in one view.
The right panel shows your daily streak, Focused Today (minutes completed this calendar day, local time), and Total Focused (lifetime). Tap the i next to the label for how the streak is counted.
