Pause - The Focus App

Stop scrolling. Start building. Block distractions & focus deeply.

Reclaim your focus. Build what matters.

Pause is built for people who want to do meaningful work without constant distraction. In a world designed to steal your attention, Pause helps you take it back and use it with intention.

Block distracting apps, create powerful focus sessions, and plan your time with clarity. Instead of relying on motivation or willpower, Pause gives you the structure your brain needs to enter deep focus and stay there.

Most people scroll. You build.

ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE USAGE

Pause uses Android’s AccessibilityService API to support its core functionality of blocking distracting apps during focus sessions.

This allows Pause to:
• Detect when selected distracting apps are opened
• Block or redirect those apps while a focus session is active

Pause does not use this permission to collect personal data, monitor sensitive information, or perform any actions outside of its core focus features.

This permission is only activated with your explicit consent and can be disabled at any time in your device settings.
