I'm Emin, a solo app developer from Germany and the creator of Holy Focus. I built this app entirely on my own, line by line, prayer by prayer, in Buenos Aires, Argentina. image and a powerful Bible verse. Helping you pause, rellect, and turn your attention back to God.
The idea for Holy Focus came to me at 4 AM during a hot summer night in Buenos Aires.
I couldn’t sleep. a mosquito was buzzing around my head and suddenly, I realized
something:
All those blocking apps we use… they only remove things. But they never replace them with something better.
And what I needed most wasn't just less screen time. I needed more God.
I had just Oinished a personal challenge with a friend where we completely cut out
Instagram. And in that quiet, I started to feel closer to Jesus.
But the moment I installed Instagram again, I was back where I started.
Holy Focus wasn’t built in a boardroom.
It was built in cafés, parks, and sleepless nights in Argentina because I needed it myself.
I realized: We don’t just need tools to block distraction.
We need tools that help us refocus on what truly matters.
I’m not a theologian or church leader.
I’m not even a 'perfect Christian.'
But I believe Jesus is the answer to the deep restlessness inside us.
And Holy Focus is my way of creating something that helps us live like that. Online and
offline.
To help Christians break free from digital addiction and reclaim their time for Christ.
