Very cool of you, I was debating the $149 price tag, but at $30 I just paid before I could think of a reason not to.
Quick question: is there a way to use an audio player (e.g., Audacious, RhythmBox, VLC) to stream the music without using a web browser? The animated light curves in the background make the browser use 100% of a whole CPU core, which isn't ideal, especially when using a laptop on battery.
Hey, I'm really digging the Focus music. I was wondering to what headphones are you guys tuning it. It sounds awesome on my studio monitors, but it sounds like crap on my ATH-M50 cans due to the bass going over its limit unless I keep it to a rather low volume.
The joke at my old work was 'basically done'. Meaning they spent a weekend equivalent on a prototype. Management heard 'done' the rest of us heard 'not production ready'.
well generally I think however long the first 80% takes, the last 20% will take 1-2 times that.. but cool that they're working on an android version, I'm patient and can wait. Loving brain.fm it actually works to keep me focused.
Just checked out your site and it is great. The sound is superb and it really helps focusing. Also, your offer is super generous.
However, you only accept credit card payments. I would never give my credit card info to a random site just to read a month from now that they've been hacked.
Is there a reason you are not accepting PayPal or BitCoins? It seems that you are not using one of those big payment processors either.
I just tried it for an hour or so and it does seem great. Bummed on the lack of an Android app though... would've helped me immediately.
Anyway, I read your comments that it is nearly 80% done so I'll give it a shot and signup. The mobile version on Chrome browser works decently well so I think I'll manage with that till then.
Very cool of you guys offering such a big discount. Tried to sign-up, saw the banner (about the discount), chose lifetime subscription (even without trying) but my card still was charged $149.99. ;( Is there a way to fix this? I mean it totally maybe worth it, yet I wasn't ready to spend that much.
Impulse purchased this last night without really knowing what it was but boy was i impressed! Incredible really what you've done here and the developement team here loved it to! Well Played chaps!
I just spent 50 bucks for a yearly subscription to one of your competitors a week ago. My biggest complaint about them is that I can't get a list of tracks that I've really enjoyed and there's no upvote, play more like this feature. I don't care about social "likes" but some songs in an otherwise great playlist are just really grating and throw me right out of the focus window. It would be nice to say "don't play this again"
Apple’s own (2022) is philosophically opposite: it hides windows into a side panel instead of exposing them from the Dock. It does not provide mouse-hover previews. Why HyperDock Matters Today HyperDock represents a lost era of Mac shareware: one developer, one sharp idea, no subscriptions, and deep system integration that bordered on dangerous. It was fragile, beautiful, and immensely productive. For those who used it, the muscle memory of “hover the Dock → glance at thumbnails → click once” became as natural as breathing.
Introduction: The Pre-Stage Manager Era Before Apple introduced Stage Manager in macOS Ventura (2022) and long before the iPad’s multitasking renaissance, the Mac’s Dock was a visual relic of the early OS X era. It displayed icons. It bounced when apps launched. It let you drag things onto it. But for power users, it was profoundly stupid . A row of icons offered no feedback on which windows were open, no ability to arrange them, and no mouse-friendly way to manage spaces. hyperdock for mac
Its demise also highlights a tension in modern macOS: . Apple’s walled garden, SIP, notarization, and annual architecture shifts make it nearly impossible for a tool like HyperDock to survive long-term. The same APIs that enabled it are now locked behind entitlements that Apple rarely grants to third-party developers. Apple’s own (2022) is philosophically opposite: it hides
In a world where macOS increasingly resembles iOS, HyperDock stands as a monument to a time when you could still reach into the operating system, grab it by the Dock, and make it obey. Last known working version: HyperDock 1.8.1 on macOS 10.14 Mojave (Intel). It was fragile, beautiful, and immensely productive
| Feature | Modern Alternative | |---------|--------------------| | Dock window previews | (paid, actively maintained for macOS 14/15) | | Window snapping (Dock edge) | Rectangle (free, open-source) or BetterSnapTool | | Per-app window management | AltTab (Cmd+Tab replacement with previews) | | Terminal tab previews | iTerm2 native “Window thumbnails in Dock” (built-in since 2021) | | Mission Control per-app gesture | BetterTouchTool (overkill but works) |
Enter —a $9.95 third-party utility that, for nearly a decade, did what Apple refused to do: turn the Dock into a fully interactive window manager. Core Functionality: Windows at a Glance HyperDock’s primary innovation was the window preview popup . Hover over any running application’s Dock icon, and a row of live, scaled-down thumbnails of that app’s open windows would appear above the Dock. This is standard behavior today in Windows 11 and GNOME, but on macOS 10.7–10.14, it was revolutionary.
I'm a little late to the party. I bought the lifetime license from an earlier link that had it at $40.
My question is, is the tremolo/pulsating nature of the chords (sort of sounds like a helicopter) on most of the music a side-effect to the AI generated sounds, or is this by-design? If by-design, are there settings I could tinker with? If not, feature request. :)
I'm starting to find this a bit unnerving after extended periods, but it could be a personal preference.
Previously I was cleaning cookies / local storage (to have more free sessions). Then I downloaded MP3 and created playlists. At $29 I have no other option but to buy it... HURRAY!
