So Glad this app exists
Great Focus Game; Terrible Whitelist
This app is rare in that it feels like effort was put into this being a game with utility, rather than many other focus apps which feel like slightly gamified utilities. I love that there are multiple progression systems to work towards. The one thing that most other apps have over Focus Quest is integration into Apples Screen Time feature for making a working whitelist system for strict mode. This apps unlimited whitelist system feels like an obsolete workaround that just never got updated. It actually really cripples the functionality for me, since I like to do flashcards on my phone, but unlimited whitelisting makes the distraction dissuading functionality of this game pretty much null. I would really like to see this updated to take advantage of Screen Time to make actual whitelists for strict mode, like so many other apps do.

I love Focus Quest, with a few exceptions.
Unlike other apps that are just timers with a few game elements, Focus Quest feels more like a full game with a timer integrated. Even after completing the main story, I can continue leveling up and doing raids and the Time Rift, which keeps it fun. I also appreciate how affordable the premium version is—$4 a month is more than reasonable for an app that helps me focus, improve my work performance, balance work and breaks, reduce overwhelm and burnout, and spend less time on my phone when I’m with others. It really is a gamechanger. The training is gradual so you aren’t overwhelmed by game mechanics, and I enjoy the music and background sounds, especially the rainforest and thunderstorm options. There are two significant downsides I’ve noticed. First, once I select a tag (like “Work”), I have to keep a tag active and can’t untag it for non-specific focus time. Second, you have a limited number of times you can use the Whitelist option per day, which is extremely disruptive because I need to use certain apps on my phone (two-factor authentication, calls). I pay for Premium, so why am I still limited?
