Start a session on purpose
Focus tracking begins when you choose to begin. This keeps the product aligned with deliberate work instead of ambient desktop noise.
How It Works
ActualFocus turns a workday into a visible timeline: you start a session, it records only the frontmost app activity during that session, and then it generates a summary from the history you can inspect.
Focus tracking begins when you choose to begin. This keeps the product aligned with deliberate work instead of ambient desktop noise.
The timeline gives credit to the app in front of you. Background churn does not become fake productivity.
Camera frames remain local. Website analytics stay anonymous-only. Website builds of the app use default-on anonymous telemetry that can be switched off in settings at any time.
The end-of-day view comes from the timeline, so you can reason about what happened instead of accepting a black-box score.
Telemetry boundary
The website uses explicit-only anonymous conversion tracking in its own PostHog project. Fresh installs from this site can send anonymous app telemetry on the website release track, but the website does not create a cross-surface identity graph.
Permission model
Accessibility permission supports accurate frontmost activity context. Camera access only matters if you turn on camera-backed focus checks. The site surfaces those choices before download.
