QUESTIONS
The public Mac download is not available yet. This site introduces the app and its features. The current development build targets macOS 14 or later on Apple silicon; final release requirements will appear on the Downloads page.
The shipped extension currently supports Safari. Chrome, Edge and Firefox store links will be added when versions for those browsers are available. The timer and history still work independently of your browser.
Superfocus intentionally locks manual pause and end controls for the selected commitment. Read the Superfocus guide before starting. It is a focus aid, not a security boundary or an unbreakable restriction.
Companion apps and cross-device control are in development. They are not offered as public App Store downloads here. The current standalone development preview does not include iCloud sync. No app binaries are offered on this website yet.
The Mac app saves study history locally. You can review time by course or project and export it as CSV. This website does not receive your app’s study history.
