HocusFocus turns your child's daily screen time into a Focus Score — and ties it to an allowance they actually earn.
No restrictions by default · Works on any device · 5-minute setup
Four steps from install to insight. No app on their phone. No arguing about screen time.
Install on your home router. Every phone, laptop, and tablet is covered from day one.
Productive sessions (homework, reading, studying) raise it. Distracting ones lower it. Updates in real time.
Set any weekly amount. They always earn the baseline. The rest scales directly with their Focus Score.
When it's study time, one tap activates the VPN blocker across all devices simultaneously.
No more checking browser history. The Focus Score integrates every session — homework, YouTube, Khan Academy, social media — into a single honest number. It resets every day.
Your child can freely use any app, any time. Distracting sites lower their score — but nothing is blocked unless they start a Focus Session.
During a Focus Session, the VPN activates network-level blocking on every device simultaneously. It ends when the session ends. No arguments needed.
Set a weekly reward amount. We split it into two parts — a guaranteed floor so they always earn something, and a focus-based portion that rewards the work they put in.
"I was skeptical of apps that just block everything — Mia would find a way around it. HocusFocus is different. She cares about her score because it affects her allowance."
"I didn't want something that blocked me 24/7 — that felt like being in a cage. This shows me my score and I choose when to do a Focus Session. It's actually fair."
"Several of my students improved a full letter grade. The Canvas integration means they already know what's due — I spend less time chasing deadlines."
Join families who replaced daily negotiations with a system that's honest, automatic, and fair.
