Deep work focus

Focus you can prove.

Start a session and turn your phone face down. The timer only runs while it stays there – pick it up and it pauses. Every week you see how many deep hours you really did.

Today screen: 6.5 deep hours this week with daily bars, a focus session card with 25, 50, 90 minutes or open, today’s top 3 and the focus check-in

Your phone is the loudest
person in the room.

A glance at the screen costs minutes of focus. ZoneKit turns the phone into your ally: face down means the clock is running – and you can see every week how much deep work you really did.

How it works

Flip it. Focus. Done.

Pick 25, 50 or 90 minutes – or an open session – and lay your phone face down. The timer starts by itself. Pick it up and you get five seconds of grace, then the clock pauses.

Left it in your hand for 30 seconds? The session ends and does not count. That is the whole trick – it makes every deep hour real.

a day: “How sharp are you?” builds your focus curve

Six tools for deep work.

Focus proof

The motion sensor checks that your phone lies face down. Picked up: pause. 30 seconds: the session ends. Every deep hour counts honestly.

Focus curve

Three times a day: how sharp are you, 1 to 5? After 14 days a heatmap shows your best hours – put your hardest work there. Pro.

Time x-ray

Reads your calendar on the phone only: meetings vs. free blocks of 90 minutes and your score “time for what matters”. Nothing is changed or uploaded. Pro.

Meeting filter

Three questions before you accept: clear goal? really needed? possible in writing? You get a decision, the minutes saved and a polite reply to copy.

Shutdown ritual

Two minutes at the end of the day: write down open loops, tick off what is done, pick tomorrow’s top 3. In the morning they are waiting for you.

Weekly hours card

Share an image with your deep hours of the week, your sessions and your streak – only the picture, never your data.

Your week

Where did your week go?

The time x-ray sorts your calendar into meetings, focus appointments and free time – and finds the blocks of 90 minutes or more where real work fits.

Too many meetings? Run the next invitation through the meeting filter and keep track of the hours you saved.

Time x-ray of a work week: 38 % time for what matters, 14.5 hours of meetings, 6 free blocks of 90 minutes, bars per day and a tip

Progress

Know your best hours.

Deep hours per week, your streak and a 12-week trend. The focus curve shows on which day and at what time you think best.

No account, no cloud, no AI. Your sessions and your calendar never leave your phone.

Quick questions.

Who is ZoneKit for?

For anyone whose work needs concentration: knowledge workers, developers, founders, students, writers. If your phone keeps pulling you out of your work, one face-down session a day is a good start.

What does ZoneKit cost?

Free: focus sessions of 25 and 50 minutes, deep hours of the last 7 days with your streak, the shutdown ritual, morning top 3 and the meeting filter. Pro adds 90-minute and open sessions, full history, the focus curve, the time x-ray, meeting statistics and backup – as a monthly or yearly subscription (with a free trial week) or a one-time purchase. The store shows the price.

How does ZoneKit make money?

Only through the optional Pro upgrade. There are no ads, and no data is sold.

How does the phone know it is face down?

From the motion sensor that every phone has – no permission needed. ZoneKit smooths the values so a bump on the table does not count as picking up. The screen stays on but black during a session, because phones stop reporting sensor values reliably when the screen is off.

Does my calendar leave my phone?

No. The time x-ray only reads your calendar on the phone, evaluates it in memory and never stores, changes or uploads appointments. Sessions, check-ins and lists are stored only on your phone, without an account. The app only sends a technical usage signal with a random installation ID – never your content.

What if I really have to pick up my phone?

Go ahead: you get five seconds of grace, then the timer pauses. Put it back within 30 seconds and the session continues. You can also end a session any time – everything from one minute on counts.

Is ZoneKit a pomodoro timer?

You can use it like one with 25-minute sessions. The difference: ZoneKit only counts time when the phone is really out of your hands, and it adds the bigger picture – focus curve, calendar x-ray and a clean end to the day.

Which devices and languages are supported?

Android and iPhone – the app is in preparation and coming soon to Google Play and the App Store. It speaks English, German, Spanish, French and Italian.

Your next deep hour starts with one flip.

Start a 25-minute session, lay your phone face down and get to work. ZoneKit counts – honestly.

Coming soon for Android and iPhone.
