Deep Focus Mode
DOLO's Focus Mode is a distraction-free timer with AI check-ins, session tagging, and a social leaderboard — built for real deep work.
Free on iOS & Android
No context — just a ticking clock
Generic timers don't know what you're working on or why. Without session context, there's nothing to reflect on and no way to improve.
No accountability when the session ends
The Pomodoro breaks and you check your phone. Without a post-session check-in, the transition out of focus mode is as chaotic as the transition in.
No social proof that deep work is happening
Focus is invisible. You can't see your friends working. That invisibility removes one of the most powerful motivators: knowing others are in it with you.
No data on what conditions produce best work
Most people have no idea whether they focus better in the morning or evening, after journaling or cold exposure. Without data, you can't optimise.
Tag your session before you start
Label your block (studying, writing, coding, design). Tagging creates intention and gives the AI context to make check-ins meaningful.
AI coach checks in when you surface
The moment your session ends, DOLO asks what you accomplished, what distracted you, and what you'd do differently. This debrief is where the compounding begins.
League shows your friends' focus in real time
Your DOLO league is a live leaderboard of your friends' focus sessions. Seeing someone else go deep is the most natural trigger to do the same.
Mood + session correlation reveals your peak hours
Over weeks, DOLO maps your focus quality against your mood, energy, and time of day. You'll know exactly when and how to schedule your most important work.
“I've used every Pomodoro app. DOLO is the first one that makes me want to start a session rather than dread it. The AI check-in afterward is surprisingly powerful.”
You choose the duration — DOLO supports sessions from 10 minutes to 2 hours. The default is 25 minutes (Pomodoro-style), but you can customise based on your workflow.
You can end any session early. DOLO logs the actual duration and still runs the AI check-in. Partial sessions count toward your streak and XP — progress is progress.
DOLO itself is distraction-free during sessions — no notifications, no feed. System-level app blocking requires your phone's built-in focus mode (iOS Focus / Android Focus Mode), which you can configure to activate simultaneously.
You invite friends to your DOLO league. The leaderboard shows each member's weekly focus time, streak, and XP. All participation is opt-in and you control who can see your data.
No. Pomodoro timers count down. DOLO's Focus Mode adds session tagging, AI-powered post-session check-ins, mood and energy correlation, and a social accountability layer. The timer is the starting point, not the whole product.
