About
Win your morning! Stop snoozing. Stop doomscrolling.
The alarm you can't turn off from bed: get up, scan a code in another room, and the apps you scroll the most stay locked.
I built Anchor because my phone was winning my mornings.
WHY IT WORKS
At 6am, willpower is still asleep. Anchor swaps it for one simple physical task: get up, walk across the room, scan. Getting out of bed stops being a debate.
THE ALARM
• Rings loud through Silent mode and Focus
• Choose 0, 1 or 2 snoozes. Your call, set ahead of time
• Tap "I'm Up" and the app opens, so it won't quietly turn itself off
• Optional Quiet Walk: a short grace period to walk to your code before the alarm comes back
SCAN TO WAKE
• Use any barcode or QR code you already own
• Pick something across the room, out of reach from bed
• Ideas: a toothpaste tube, a coffee box, a shampoo bottle, a vitamin jar, the back of a book
• Register your code once. Scanning it is what ends the alarm
• Anchor Tags (NFC) are coming soon. Pairing already works in the app: place the tag across the room and tap your phone to it to dismiss
A REAL APP BLOCKER
Anchor uses Screen Time to lock the apps that steal your time.
• Block any apps you choose: social, games, mail, anything
• Group apps and block them on your own schedules: mornings, work hours, bedtime, deep focus
• Block on wake-up: the apps you doomscroll stay locked until you scan
• Lock Now starts a block instantly whenever you need to focus
• Two strictness levels: scan to unlock, or Hold Fast, which can't be unlocked early at all
• Optional Hardcore Mode stops apps from being deleted while a block is active, so backing out is much harder
• Unlock the same way you wake: scan your code
FAIR BY DESIGN
• Emergency override: a limited number each month, behind confirmations, for the mornings life happens
• No ads. No account. Your data stays on your device.
