A short pause between things.
FoQus is a browser app for the gap between meetings, tasks or classes. Watch soft lights drift towards a breathing circle, guide them if you like, and get back to your day when you are ready.
FoQus is in closed alpha. Requests are reviewed by the SustematiQ team.
How a pause works
Three steps, a few minutes in total. Keep the suggested setup or change it before you begin.
Choose
Start with the suggested setup, or change the length, breathing guide, sound and statements.
Pause
Lights drift across the screen. Nudge them towards the circle, follow the breathing guide, or just watch.
Return
See a short summary, add an optional reflection or reminder, then get back to what you were doing.
Everything is a choice
FoQus starts with a suggested setup. Every part of it can be changed or switched off.
One, three or five minutes
Pick a length that fits the gap you have. Three minutes is suggested.
Three breathing guides
Steady 4·6, Even 5·5, or Natural with no pacing. Following the circle is optional.
15 sounds, or silence
Rain, shore, wind, soft tones and more, generated live in your browser.
Gentle statements
Short, optional lines appear now and then. They never ask for a reply.
Guide the lights or watch
Interactive lets you nudge lights towards the centre. Ambient lets you simply watch.
Full screen
The session can fill the screen so the rest of your desktop steps back.
Reminders
Add a calendar reminder to come back tomorrow, in three days or next week.
Guest or profile
Use FoQus as a guest, or keep a profile with your choices on this device.
Keyboard and reduced motion
Controls can be reached with the keyboard, and motion follows your device setting.
Listen before you begin
These are the sounds from the app. Try a few here; the full set of 15 is on the features page.
Soft rain
A smooth rain wash with occasional droplets.
Ocean shore
Slow shore waves with a gentle pebble fizz.
Forest stream
A softly burbling stream with occasional bubbles.
Warm pad
A slowly shifting, low musical chord.
Singing bowls
Slow, softly overlapping resonant bowl tones.
Ambient keys
Spacious, soft piano-like notes with a light tail.
These are 30-second recordings of sounds the FoQus app generates live during a session.
Private by design, and clear about what it is
Your sessions stay on your device
Guest sessions end when you close the page. A profile keeps your choices and history in this browser only.
