undistracted

Not pulled away

Undistracted means giving full attention without interruption or diversion.

Someone undistracted by their phone can focus on conversation.

The word often appears in contexts valuing concentration: She worked undistracted for three hours, undistracted prayer.

It suggests a state increasingly rare in an age of constant notifications.
