How it works

kōno sets the right rhythm for every moment of your day.

kono app screen focus mode
Prepare workspace and mind for deep work

Create a distraction-free zone for tasks that require intense concentration. With one click, instantly silence phone calls, messages, and app notifications on your iPhone and Mac and automatically close apps and block access to your most tempting go-to websites.

kono app screen break mode
Regroup, recharge, and reset

The science is clear: We all need downtime, and the quantity and quality of our work is optimized when we take regular breaks. Enter break mode and go for a stroll, chat casually with a colleague, or do a bit of daydreaming to give your mind some much needed rest and release.

kono app screen meeting mode
Be present, connected, and focused for online meetings

With one click, kōno clears your digital workspace so you can be fully present and attentive in online meetings. Meeting mode provides the ultimate do not disturb tool--blocking tempting social media, incoming calls, notifications, and messages.

kono app screen communication mode
Respond to emails in one fell swoop

Consolidate wasteful hourly trips to your inbox into 2 or 3 daily sessions. When it's time to tackle your inbox, use a customized mode to automatically open your email and messaging apps. A timer can give you an audio or visual cue when it's time to move on to other things.

kono app screen plan mode
Make a plan and prepare for the day ahead

Don't just wing it. Make planning for the day ahead a regular habit. Kōno can help you keep it short and sweet, launching a custom timer and automatically opening your calendar and other planning tools.

To be part of the beta program helped me to think about the different modes of work I go through during my day. By defining and starting them, it helped me to concentrate easily on my task at hand and not distract myself. Especially the App & URL block and timer helped for that.
