## What is AppNap?

Apps need naps, too.

AppNap puts distracting apps on a simple rest cycle. Pick an app, choose its Play time, and set the Nap time it needs to recharge from empty to full. While the app rests, its Balance fills one minute at a time. When you are ready, spend that Balance on a fixed Access Window.

HOW APPNAP WORKS
• Pick an app with Apple’s privacy-preserving app picker.
• Set Play time for how long it can stay active.
• Set Nap time for how long a full recharge takes.
• Let the app rest while its Balance fills.
• Use the available energy when you choose Access.
• Tap Lock Now whenever the app needs another nap.

No streaks, scores, or guilt. AppNap simply gives each app a rhythm of rest and use.

PRIVACY BY DESIGN
The apps you choose, your Minute Rules, Balances, and enforcement state stay on your iPhone. Apple gives AppNap an opaque selection, not a list of app names. No AppNap account is required to use the app, purchase Premium, or restore purchases.
