## What is Capy?

Earn your screen time back. Don't just block it.

Complete real habits → your capybara wakes up → your apps unlock. That's the whole loop.

Capy is the only screen time app where you EARN your scroll
instead of being punished for it.

MEET YOUR CAPYBARA
Name them. Dress them. Watch them sleep when your apps are
blocked and explode with joy when you complete a habit. The
emotional bond is the point — it's why people stay months,
not days.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Open Capy instead of doomscrolling
2. Pick a habit (1-min breathing, a quick walk, journaling,
   pushups, water, anything)
3. Snap a photo or finish the timer
4. Our AI checks it and roasts you with a comment you'll want
   to screenshot
5. Energy bar fills → your apps unlock for a few minutes
6. Repeat → streak grows → capy glows up

BUILT FOR REAL HUMANS
- 5 habit categories: Quests, Breathing, Exercises, Journaling,
  Routines — something for every mood
- 1–3 minute habits when you have zero energy (no shame here)
- AI photo verification that's actually fun, not surveillance
- ADHD-friendly: low friction, big rewards, instant feedback
- Streak system that doesn't make you cry when you miss a day

WHY GEN Z PICKED CAPY
- Capybara energy: the calmest animal on earth helping you with
  the loudest problem
- No corporate guilt-tripping. The enemy is Big Tech, not you
- AI comments are unhinged in the best way — every habit feels
  like a punchline
- Made for humans who already tried Apple Screen Time, Opal,
  one sec, and bounced
- Looks beautiful on your home screen. We tested.

CAPY PLUS
Unlimited AI verifications, custom habits with custom icons,
exclusive cosmetics for your capybara, advanced stats. Free
version gets you the full core loop forever.

———

The brain rot ends here. Or, more honestly: you negotiate with
it on your terms — with a capybara as your accountability buddy.

Earn your screen time. Beat the rot. Glow up.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-06-29

What's new in 1.0.5

- Focus sessions, redesigned: start a timer for any habit with a calm,
  full-screen view showing a big countdown, your energy, and one tap to finish.
  While a session runs, distracting apps stay blocked so you can truly focus.
- A friendlier block screen: open a blocked app and Capy greets you with a
  personal, encouraging message. One tap brings you back to complete a habit.
- Per-habit reminders: set weekly reminders for individual routines so the
  right nudge arrives at the right time.
- A gentler way to unblock: removing an app from your block list now includes
  a short reflective cool-down, giving you a moment to pause before you unblock.
- Easier to turn on app blocking: if you skipped it during setup, Capy now
  offers to enable it when you come back.
