Join groups and get motivating messages from friends in Flipd, a focus timer that makes solo study sessions feel less lonely.

What we love: The sense of camaraderie. Start a “Library timer,” for example, and you’ll see the number of other Flipd users who are currently doing the same. Want to get granular? On your profile, you can share what you’re studying and your daily focus goal.

Quick tip: Looking for some friendly competition? Create a group to see who can log the most time focusing. The winner goes to the top of the group’s leaderboard. Head to the Groups tab to try it out.

Meet the creator: Alanna Harvey and Cristian Villamarin founded Flipd after realizing how much screen time was affecting their productivity and motivation. They wanted to help others reduce distractions and focus on important tasks.
