## What is Early Owl?

Stop doomscrolling at bedtime without relying on willpower. Set the boundary before you’re tired, then let Night Lock support the routine you chose.

Early Owl requires a paid membership after onboarding. Eligible new subscribers receive a 7-day free trial.

BUILD A BEDTIME ROUTINE THAT STICKS

Set a repeating Night Lock around your bedtime routine and choose the apps and categories that tend to keep you scrolling. During Night Lock, Early Owl shields those selected distractions.

When you genuinely need temporary access, earn it with push-ups or squats—or choose a Calm Pause. This small moment of intention helps interrupt automatic late-night screen time.

FEATURES

• A repeating Night Lock schedule
• Protection for selected apps and categories
• Temporary access with push-ups or squats
• Calm Pause as a movement-free alternative
• Configurable temporary access duration
• Limited emergency access
• Local reminders when Night Lock begins and access ends
• No account, ads, or cross-app tracking

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Movement verification happens on your device. Camera frames are processed locally and are never uploaded or stored.

EARLY OWL MEMBERSHIP

Monthly and Annual memberships are offered as separate, auto-renewable in-app purchases. Your membership keeps Night Lock and its paid features available while your subscription is active.

Your subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it anytime in your Apple Account settings.

Keep the bedtime promise you made this morning.
