Locked In: Focus Timer Buddy counts focus time only while the user stays in the app. Leaving pauses the session immediately, and the clock resumes only when the user returns and taps resume. The timer supports focus and break periods, named tasks with steps, presets, and several display faces. Users can choose calmer colors and sounds, hide countdown numbers, use a tap-based interaction, or disable celebratory feedback. Widgets, Dynamic Island and Lock Screen controls, reminders, and Siri shortcuts help keep the session visible. Optional Apple Intelligence tools can break a large task into smaller steps on-device. Settings and progress sync between iPhone and Mac through the user's iCloud. The listing says there are no ads, accounts, analytics, or developer servers, but does not clarify whether any paid upgrades exist.
