Show HN: I was tired of all the productivity apps, so I made one myself (focusmax.io)

Hey hackers,

Like many of you, I'm always trying to optimize my productivity, and I have tried a lot of apps out there to do so.

I didn't find the exact one that I could use, so I built one for myself.

Check it out and let me know if you have any thoughts!

I watched exactly 11 seconds of your video and spend probably 20 seconds on your site. My advice for you today if you want to actually make money off of this: learn how to setup a landing page that immediately shows me what you're offering and spend a few hours creating a short and professional video, instead of a chatroulette video with bad audio quality.

This is not meant to be rude, but productivity apps are an extremely oversaturated niche, and nobody will watch a 3 minute video just to find out what it is that you offer. No screenshots, no flashing gif showing me in 4 seconds how smooth and easy the app is to use? Im hitting the [X] in the corner.

You didn't even mention here what makes your app easier or more effective than those others you tried ;-)

“Address: 123 Productivity St, Focus City, FC 12345“ If I see a joke address in a privacy statement and legal terms then I get the impression you’re not taking either serious.
+1 with you!
