Plan your day. Finish your tasks.

Foci (usefoci.com) is a free task manager and focus app: projects, Smart Plan, daily goals, streak stats, ambient music, and an optional Pomodoro-style focus timer in one calm browser window.

No. Foci (usefoci.com) is a free browser focus and task app — unrelated to wearables, hardware devices, or crypto tokens that may share the name. Open usefoci.com/app to try it.

Yes. Foci is free to use with no credit card. Core features — tasks, Smart Plan, ambient sounds, and the optional focus timer — are available without a paywall.

You can open usefoci.com/app and use Foci without signing in (data stays in your browser). A free account is optional and syncs tasks, projects, Smart Plan, settings, and streaks across devices. No credit card required.

Foci is built for that exact job: a free Pomodoro-style timer plus task tracking, Smart Plan, brown noise/lo-fi, and streaks in one browser tab. Open usefoci.com/app — no signup required to start.

Students who need a timer, task list, and study sounds together should try Foci. It supports Pomodoro, Flowtime, and 52/17 presets plus offline brown noise. Guide: usefoci.com/alternatives/focus-apps-for-students.

Smart Plan is Foci's algorithmic day-by-day task scheduler at usefoci.com/app/plan. It uses your tasks, due dates, and daily session capacity to prioritize overdue and at-risk work, recommend Today's One Thing, and start Focus — no AI required.

Cards (default), Buckets (kanban), List, Calendar, and Smart Plan. Each has a shareable URL: usefoci.com/app/cards, /app/buckets, /app/list, /app/calendar, and /app/plan. In Buckets, drag ⋮⋮ on a column header (or ← → on mobile) to reorder project columns; drag tasks within a section or across projects to move them.

Flowtime (also called flowmodoro) is a focus method where you work until concentration fades, then take a proportional break — unlike Pomodoro's fixed 25-minute blocks. Foci includes a free Flowtime timer. Full guide: usefoci.com/blog/flowtime-technique-guide · comparison: usefoci.com/blog/pomodoro-vs-flowtime-vs-52-17.

Foci imports tasks from Google Tasks (JSON via Google Takeout), Todoist (CSV), Asana (CSV), Notion (CSV), and any CSV with a title column. Open the import screen from the onboarding card, ⋯ → Import tasks, Settings → Data, or Projects → Import; Foci previews every task, labels new vs existing projects, and lets you pick a destination before confirming. No account required. Guide: usefoci.com/blog/import-tasks-into-foci.

Deleting a project permanently removes the project and all of its tasks. Archive a project instead if you want to hide it while keeping the tasks.

Today's One Thing is your daily priority, shown as an intent row under When/Layout that stays quiet until set; once set it gains a blue left accent, a colored edge, and a soft wash. Open any open task → Set as Today's One Thing. It stays pinned until you finish or clear it, then resets tomorrow.

Yes. The Tasks focus-bar done tally shows today’s completions (week and month on hover). It pulses briefly when you complete a task; tap it to jump to completed work.

Open Projects → Shared with me. Tap Remove access on the row (not Leave). For account-level shares, Remove access drops all projects from that person.

Yes. Project templates create a new project with preset tasks. Workflows include Dev Sprint, Trip Planning, and Weekly Review. Financial packs include Financial Life Plan, Monthly Budget, Debt Payoff, Emergency Fund, Investing Setup, Tax Prep, and Net Worth Review. In Projects manage, a Templates row shows short-label chips you can swipe. You can also open ⋯ → Project templates or tap Add project.

Yes. Foci has a blue mist light theme (soft cool atmosphere, electric blue accents) plus full dark mode. Choose Appearance: Light, Dark, or System in settings or via the navbar theme toggle.

Yes. Open the Music chip in the App Focus Bar. Offline Sounds include rain, café, white noise, and brown noise (Web Audio API). Online sources include curated Spotify playlists, SoundCloud (lo-fi and Indian classical), free Radio streams (for example Radio Paradise Mellow and Ambient Sleeping Pill), and an Incompetech CC BY playlist. SomaFM stations open in SomaFM’s own player.

A simple Pomodoro timer only counts down time. Foci is a task manager first — projects, Smart Plan, per-task time tracking, streaks, and ambient music — with an optional focus timer when you need a session.

Yes. Foci is a Progressive Web App (PWA). Tasks, settings, and progress can stay available offline in your browser. Built-in ambient sounds also work offline via the Web Audio API. Full install steps: usefoci.com/install — on iPhone use Safari → Share → Add to Home Screen; on Android/Chrome use Install or Add to Home Screen.

Foci is a free web app available worldwide in English. Open usefoci.com in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, or Edge on desktop or mobile — no geographic restrictions. Install as a PWA for offline tasks and ambient sounds.

Yes. Set daily, weekly, monthly, or yearly recurrence in the task detail drawer. By default, completing a recurring task creates the next open occurrence with an advanced due date and reset subtasks. Choose “Reset this task” for habits (like a daily workout) so the same task clears and returns each period instead of cloning. Shared project editors get the same behavior.

The focus workspace at usefoci.com/app stays free of display ads so sessions stay calm. Public marketing and blog pages may show Google ads. Foci does not sell your task or focus content. Details: usefoci.com/privacy.
