Disappoint yourself.
Now with friends.
Hitchpost plans your day in blocks, shuts every app a block doesn't need, counts only the minutes you're really there, and shows them to a friend.
DownloadYour day, in blocks
Biology at nine for 45 minutes. An essay at noon. A run you just tick off. Blocks repeat on the days you choose and move when your day does.
Everything else, locked
Studying keeps your notes and reader open. Chat, video, social and games are locked the moment they try to open, until the block is over.
Real minutes, not good intentions
Every block counts what you actually focused, against what you planned. Each day and each week, including the times you stopped early.
Walk away, and the clock stops
Leave your laptop and Hitchpost notices. Time away doesn't count as focus, and if you never come back, the block ends itself and says so.
A friend in the loop
Pair with one friend by their @username. You see each other's minutes live, nudge each other to start, and keep a streak that only grows when you both show up.
Most focus apps trust you to keep going. Hitchpost tells someone.
You can always end a block. It just isn't a secret.
