Focus tools protect working time from distraction. Some block websites and apps on a schedule or for a session you cannot easily cancel (Freedom, Cold Turkey, FocusMe, Opal, BlockSite); some structure the session itself with timers, routines or a coworking partner (Forest, Focus Bear, Focusmate); and some support concentration with sound or by showing where time went (Brain.fm, RescueTime). Open-source options cover strict desktop, browser and Android blocking, focus timers, local time tracking and ambient sound.
Prices and free tiers as checked, dated on each review.
