## What is Curfew?

Curfew locks Reels, Shorts and anything else you choose — on a schedule you set.

Turning it off costs five minutes.

Tap unlock and a five-minute wait begins. The apps stay blocked the whole time. Most of the time you change your mind before it ends, and that is the entire point: the app puts time between the urge and the tap.

WE WON'T PRETEND IT'S UNBREAKABLE
You can turn off Screen Time in Settings in about 40 seconds, or delete the app in 15. We say so on the second screen, before asking for permission. What Curfew adds is friction, not a cage.

IT LOCKS WHEN IT SAYS IT WILL
Every screen shows when the lock was last verified. If the app and the system ever disagree, Curfew fixes it silently instead of leaving you guessing.

PHONE, MESSAGES AND MAPS STAY OPEN
Essential apps are never blocked. You will not be locked out of a map at midnight.

IN THE MORNING
One notification tells you how many hours you kept and how many unlock attempts you cancelled. Nothing else asks for your attention.

FREE, AND ACTUALLY USABLE
One schedule stays free forever. Curfew Pro is a one-time purchase — no subscription — and adds unlimited schedules, different hours per weekday, and a 15-minute unlock wait.

Curfew uses Screen Time and never sees which apps you choose. Nothing leaves your device.

## Pricing and in-app purchases
