As soon as Focus Friend was launched, it quickly attracted users with its unique approach when helping to limit distraction on the phone with the companionship of a virtual friend, an animated bean who likes to weave socks and scarves. Users can find more items to decorate this character's room when maintaining a reasonable habit of using the phone.

Focus Friend's idea is to motivate with a sense of responsibility. The character of Bean Kiem will be sad if you interrupt the sleeve project, thereby encouraging you to limit access to distorted applications. As soon as it was launched, the application climbed to the top of the App Store and reached more than one million Android settings according to data from the Play Store.

Google commented Focus Friend is a useful and cute tool, while helping users temporarily " disconnect" in the context of many AI applications continuously appearing and taking a high position on the rankings.

According to Google, consumers prioritize entertainment and attractive apps. This makes it worth noting that an application that helps manage screen time is awarded the highest award.

Along with the app of the year award, Google also announced other awards. The Pokemon card game TCG Pocket was chosen as the best game. The Luminar photo editing session was awarded the Best Multi-device app award and Disney Speedstorm won the Best Multi-device game award.
