A complete breakdown of every tool in FocusFlow's enforcement stack.
FocusFlow terminates blocked apps via Win32 API calls — not soft timers. The moment a blocked process starts, it's ended. No workaround exists.
Lock your entire Windows desktop to only the apps you choose. The taskbar hides, shortcuts disable, and all other processes are killed. One 5-minute break per day.
Disables Win+D, Win+Tab, Task Manager, and all system shortcuts during a focus session. No escaping to the desktop mid-session.
Blocks websites at the Windows hosts file level. Works in every browser — Chrome, Firefox, Edge — simultaneously, with no extension needed.
Emergency 5-minute daily budget to pause all enforcement. Requires PIN to activate. Budget tracked per calendar day and persisted across restarts.
A startup restore, JVM shutdown hook, and global crash handler all independently restore your taskbar — even if FocusFlow crashes mid-session.
A private session journal to plan before a focus session and review after. All data stored locally — nothing is synced or uploaded anywhere.
Track streaks, session counts, and daily focus time. Persistent stats across sessions help you see long-term productivity patterns.
