# Focus

Adjust your app’s behavior and filter incoming notifications when the current Focus changes.

## Overview

Overview

People use Focus on macOS, iOS, and iPadOS to minimize distractions. For example, someone might use a Work Focus to hide notifications from personal email or message accounts. When someone engages a Focus, the system executes your app’s custom SetFocusFilterIntent. Define a version of this intent to update your app’s configuration and filter incoming notifications. note: Session 10121: Meet Focus filters.
