Work like someone's watching.
Productivity Boss is an iPhone to-do list and focus timer with a strict cartoon boss. He times your tasks, pays you by the hour and catches you scrolling.
I see you.
You already know what's wrong.
The boss fixes the three things that keep you stuck.
Can't stop scrolling?
Five minutes on TikTok turns into three hours. The boss watches the apps you pick and texts you. Premium freezes them while you work.

Only work under pressure?
Every task gets its own countdown on your Lock Screen. A small deadline every hour, no panic at the end.
Make every task a deadline →
No motivation to start?
You don't need motivation. You need someone checking. Get paid the second a task is done, keep your streak, get promoted.

Questions for the boss.
Does the boss really block apps?
With Premium, App Freeze locks the apps you choose during a task, for an hour, or at a daily limit. Strict mode can't be switched off mid-task.
Is my Screen Time data private?
Yes. It's read through Apple's Screen Time API and stays on your iPhone. No account, no ads.
Is the money real?
No. It's virtual pay. Fake money, real dopamine.
Is it for ADHD?
Many people with ADHD use it because it adds outside structure and instant rewards. It's a productivity app, not a treatment.
Is it free?
Yes. Premium is optional: yearly with a 7-day free trial, or monthly.
