FocusedZen exists because I got tired of checking multiple apps for weather, birds, and blooms. I wanted one clean, fast place to see what’s happening nearby.
Bird sightings in the Birds tab include nearby data from eBird, run by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology.
Plants, fungi, mammals, insects, and part of the bird data come from iNaturalist.
Weather data comes from Open-Meteo.
Location names are resolved using OpenStreetMap data.
FocusedZen uses your location only to fetch local weather and nearby sightings. If you use the pin button, your last location is cached on your device so the app can reopen quickly. It is not logged or used for analytics.
