FocusCube - Black
A rotating cube timer that starts the moment you flip it to a preset interval — 5, 15, 25, or 45 minutes — so you drop into focused work without unlocking a phone, fighting an app, or finding an excuse.
Why FocusCube
Phone timers require unlocking a device that's full of distractions, and that's often where focus dies

User Reviews
The only thing that gets me started
I have ADHD and starting is everything. Flipping this cube is a tiny action my brain will actually do, and then I'm working. Silent mode is perfect at the library.
This means a lot — so glad the flip works for you!
Pomodoro without my phone
Keeping my phone across the room and using this instead doubled my focus. Beautiful little object too. The wood one looks great on my desk.
Phone across the room is the pro move — thanks Oliver!
Simple and effective
Wish I could set a 20 min instead of 15 or 25, but honestly the presets are fine and the simplicity is why it works. Charges over USB-C which is nice.
Great for the kids too
Bought it for study sprints, now also use it for screen-time turns with my kids. Flip and go. Tough little thing survives being dropped.
Got Questions?
Everything you need to know about using and caring for your FocusCube.
Q.Can I set a custom time?
FocusCube uses fixed preset intervals on its faces (like 5, 15, 25, and 45 minutes) — that simplicity is the point. If you need arbitrary custom durations to the minute, a phone timer is a better fit.
Q.Is it silent enough for an office?
Yes. Silent mode ends with a light cue and no sound, so it won't disturb an office, library, or a sleeping child. A gentle alarm mode is there when you want an audible cue.
Q.How is it powered?
It recharges over USB-C, so there are no disposable batteries to replace. A full charge lasts a long time given how little power it draws.
Q.Why not just use my phone?
Because unlocking your phone to start a timer is exactly where focus goes to die. A physical flip keeps the distraction machine in your pocket.
