Choose your focus
Pick what you’re working on, choose a building, and set the time you want to protect.
Focus. Build. Grow.
Make your focus visible.
Scaffold is a gamified iPhone focus app that blocks distractions and turns completed focus sessions into a city you build. Run focused sessions and routines, then watch your effort become something lasting, one session at a time.
Available now for iPhone. Free to download with optional Premium.
The loop
A world built with focus.
Scaffold gives every focused session a destination. The time you protect becomes visible progress, so showing up feels connected to something bigger than a timer.
Keep distractions out
Use Apple’s Screen Time controls to block the apps you choose while the session is active.
Watch effort take shape
Finish the session, earn progress, and return to a city that reflects the work you put in.

Focus time, routines, and city effort together.
More than a timer
Built to keep you coming back.
Scaffold connects the practical tools of a focus app with the emotional pull of building a place that is unmistakably yours.
Your city
Give effort a shape.
Place buildings, upgrade what you’ve started, unlock new pieces, and let the city become a record of what you followed through on.
Build your rhythm.
Create repeatable, timed steps and let Scaffold guide you from the first task to the last.
Look back without losing the thread.
See focus time, completed sessions, routines, and the effort invested in your city.
Grow alongside people you know.
Connect with friends, earn unique rewards, and share selected neighborhoods between cities.
Keep what you build.
Your completed buildings become a collection you can use as your city changes and expands.
Privacy matters
Your focus stays yours.
Scaffold uses Apple’s Screen Time framework for app blocking and does not receive the content of other apps. Learn what is stored on your device and what can be synced to your account.
