Weeko Focus menu bar panel with quick starts, focus history, and recent tasks

Everyday focus controls, right in the menu bar

Start a task, check progress, and control the current focus or break without keeping a main window open.

Start quickly

Begin a 15-, 25-, 45-, or 60-minute focus session directly, with an optional task name.

Control the current stage

Pause, resume, add five minutes, finish early, or end focus. Breaks can also be paused or skipped.

Reuse tasks and presets

Restore a recent task and its timing, or launch a saved focus and break configuration from the menu.

Open the panel when needed

See the task, countdown, and progress ring in a dedicated panel. Closing it does not stop the timer.

Fit the rhythm to the task, not the other way around

Set focus, short-break, and long-break rules separately, then choose when the next stage should begin automatically. Timing settings are saved on this Mac.

Focus for 1–180 minutes

Choose a suitable length for anything from a quick task to a longer stretch of deep work.

Short breaks for 1–60 minutes

Add a brief recovery period between focus sessions to reduce uninterrupted screen time.

Long breaks for 1–120 minutes

Take a long break after every 2–6 completed focus sessions, with both values configurable.

Automatic transitions

Start breaks automatically, and optionally begin the next focus session when a break ends.

Timer state recovery

After an unexpected exit or restart, unfinished stages are restored from their saved end time.

Daily and weekly goals

Set goals by duration or count. The menu bar shows live progress for the daily goal.

Step away from the work surface when it is time to rest

Full-screen breaks create distance from the current task, while away protection covers the screen and pauses the timer when you leave your desk briefly.

Immersive full-screen breaks

Cover selected displays, hide the Dock and menu bar, and show a break countdown with custom rest copy.

App-level away protection

Start it from the menu or a shortcut to cover current work. The paused timer can resume after unlocking.

Exiting can require a press-and-hold plus Touch ID or the system password. Away protection does not replace the macOS lock screen.

Search, manage, and export every focus session

History management is part of the core experience. Records stay on this Mac and can be inspected, corrected, or exported when needed.

Core focus data stays local by default

Weeko Focus needs no account, and the current version has no cloud sync or automatic cloud backup.

  • Task names, timer state, goal settings, and focus history support timing, recovery, and statistics on this Mac.
  • The app does not automatically upload focus data or use it for advertising.
  • Delete individual records or clear all focus history. CSV files you export remain under your control.

The core focus experience is free

Free includes complete timing, breaks, goal settings, and history management. Pro adds the full analytics workspace and larger task and preset limits.

Weeko Focus FAQ

Does Weeko Focus upload my tasks or focus history?

It does not upload them automatically. Core focus data stays on this Mac by default, and the current version has no account system, cloud sync, or automatic cloud backup.

Will a running timer be lost if the app closes?

The app saves the current stage, task, and expected end time. Reopening it restores an unfinished focus, break, or paused state.

Does away protection replace the macOS lock screen?

No. It is designed to cover current work and pause the timer during a short absence. Use the macOS lock screen when leaving for longer.

Which sessions count toward goals?

Naturally completed and finished-early focus sessions count toward enabled duration or count goals. Interrupted and unfinished records do not.

Can Free search or export focus history?

Yes. History search, date/status/task filters, rename, deletion, and CSV export are all available in Free.

What does Pro add?

Pro unlocks Today Overview, trends, calendar, task statistics, and goal progress; raises recent tasks and presets from 2 to 20; and adds Ping and Purr sounds.
