Limits worth knowing
- It runs on iPhone, iPad and Android only; the vendor lists no Mac, Windows or web version.
- The vendor does not publish what Focus Friend Pro includes beyond scarves earned from each session.
- Some bean skins are separate purchases, listed at $2.99 to $5.99 on the US App Store.
- The FAQ, last updated August 26, 2025, says Deep Focus Mode did not yet block Safari on iOS and can conflict with other Screen Time blockers.
