Getting started with Flocus

Create your account

Sign up free — no credit card, no hardware needed.

Creating a free account lets you:

• Plan your day and keep your daily streak
• Save your focus history and weekly recaps
• Sync your plan across devices
• Connect a Muse headband later for flow tracking

Plan your day

Pick your most-important task and a short list. Thirty seconds, done.

Open the Planner and decide what today is for:

1. Set your most-important task — the one thing that makes today count
2. Add a short list of supporting tasks behind it
3. Estimate the time each task will take — you'll compare against the actual later

Run your first focus block

A pomodoro timer pointed at a real task. No hardware needed.

Focus blocks work in any browser, on any device:

1. Pick a task from your plan — start with the most-important one
2. Start a focus block and work until the timer ends
3. Take the short break, then run the next block

Each block logs its actual time against your estimate, so your planning gets more honest with every day you run.

Close your ring

Finish what you planned and watch the day close.

The Focus Ring fills as you complete what you planned. Closing it is the whole game:

• Check off your tasks as you finish them — the ring tracks your progress
• Keep your streak — every closed ring extends it
• Review your recap — weekly insights show where your focus actually went

A day you can see is a day you can win. Tomorrow morning, plan again — the ritual is the product.

Optional: connect your Muse for real-time flow tracking

The power-up — add a Muse EEG headband and Flocus can read your focus while you work.

Everything above works hardware-free. If you own a Muse headband (or want the deepest version of Flocus), you can add real-time flow tracking to your focus blocks.

Supported headbands

• Muse 2 — most popular, great for beginners
• Muse S (Gen 1 & Gen 2) — comfortable fabric design
• Original Muse — still fully supported

You can purchase a Muse headband from choosemuse.com or Amazon.

Use a desktop browser with Web Bluetooth

Headband sessions need Web Bluetooth, which only desktop browsers support:

Connect and position the headband

1. Make sure your Muse is charged and turned on (hold button until LEDs light up)
2. Enable Bluetooth on your computer
3. Go to the Session page
4. Click "Connect Device" and select your Muse from the list
5. Seat the sensors above your eyebrows and behind your ears, and adjust until the signal indicators show green
6. Sit still for the brief calibration (about 30 seconds) while Flocus learns your baseline
