## What is Attenya?

Attenya turns focus into screen time.

Your distracting apps stay locked. Focus to earn credit, then spend it on purpose: unlock your apps for exactly as long as you choose, and they lock again on their own.

HOW IT WORKS
• Choose the apps that take your time. Attenya locks them with Apple's Screen Time.
• Start a focus session: Timer, Pomodoro or Stopwatch. Finish it, and its length becomes credit.
• Spend your credit on a deliberate unlock. When the time is up, your apps lock again.

BUILT FOR STUDYING
• Subjects: tag each session with what you're working on.
• Exams: count down to your next exam.
• Rate how focused you were. Your Insights use it later.
• Pomodoro plans like 4 × 25 or 2 × 50, block by block.

INSIGHTS
• Focus time by day, week and month, and by subject.
• Your rhythm, and a streak that allows one rest day a week.
• Share your week as an image. Subject names can stay hidden.

ALWAYS AT HAND
• Widgets for your Home Screen and Lock Screen.
• A Live Activity while you focus.
• A calm shield screen that shows your credit when you open a locked app.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No ads. No tracking. What you do in the app is stored on your device and is not sent to us. Apple's Screen Time gives the app only opaque tokens for the apps you protect, not a readable list.

ATTENYA PRO
The free version covers the full loop. Pro adds Deep Focus (lock extra apps while you focus), Schedules & Sleep Guard, the long view in Insights (the whole year, older periods, your best time of day, exam pace and more than one exam), all themes and a custom earn ratio.

Pro is available as a monthly or yearly subscription, with a free trial for eligible new subscribers, or as a one-time purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings → [your name] → Subscriptions.

Attenya is a self-control tool, not a medical product. Blocking relies on Apple's Screen Time and can be interrupted, for example by iOS changes or your own settings.
