Faahh

Faahh is a lightweight menu‑bar utility for macOS, Windows and Linux that monitors user activity and issues audible “roasts” when the computer becomes idle or a configured distraction occurs. It can be triggered by a period of inactivity, a desk‑slap detected through the microphone (Windows only), or the unplugging of USB devices, after which it plays a selected sound from a built‑in library or a user‑provided MP3. The app runs offline, stores no usage data, and is sold as a one‑time purchase without a subscription.

The tool targets people who struggle to maintain focus during deep‑work sessions and want an immediate, humorous deterrent rather than a traditional blocker. Users can customize the roast sound, set the idle interval, and enable “USB Sentinel” to alert when peripherals are removed—useful in public or coffee‑shop environments. Faahh also records basic focus analytics for personal review.

What distinguishes Faahh is its combination of multiple trigger mechanisms (idle timer, microphone‑based slap detection, USB monitoring) and a personality‑driven audio response, all packaged as a small, privacy‑focused app that operates without internet connectivity.
