Earnlocker is an app blocker that turns screen time into a reward. Keep distracting apps and websites locked, earn minutes by learning and getting things done, then spend them on a break. EARN IT BEFORE YOU SCROLL Choose the app that distracts you. Use Apple's Screen Time controls to keep it locked until you start an unlock session with your earned minutes. Upgrade to Premium to block more apps. START FREE, STAY FREE Block one app and one website, and earn time with flashcards, free forever: the first 50 cards of one starter deck plus any decks you make yourself. The free tier supports one individual app and one website; app categories are not included. WAYS TO EARN TIME • Flashcards: review your own cards or a starter deck with spaced repetition, pronunciation and optional study sounds. Due reviews earn once per card per day, even when you miss an answer. • Lessons: read something new and check your understanding. • Review quizzes: revisit what you have learned. • Chinese shadowing: listen, repeat and build up to conversations with Premium. • Focus sessions: stay with one activity and earn your reward. • Tasks: turn everyday goals into minutes you can spend. • Journal: reflect on your day and make a small habit count. BUILD A LEARNING HABIT Review the first 50 cards of one starter deck and your own flashcards for free. Premium unlocks every built-in Spanish, French, Japanese, Korean and Chinese deck in full, lessons, review quizzes and shadowing content. Due reviews earn time once per card per day, so regular practice matters more than racing through the same cards. MAKE BREAKS INTENTIONAL See your balance at a glance. Choose an unlock duration, enjoy your break, and let Earnlocker relock your selected distractions when the session ends. Change earning rewards, unlock durations and daily limits in Settings. KEEP YOUR BROWSER IN STEP Use the optional Earnlocker Chrome extension on its own with Google sign-in, or connect it to your iPhone account to share your balance and unlock session. Open Earnlocker on your phone to sync browser changes. PERSONAL MEMORY HINTS Save your own memory hint on a flashcard and see it in both study directions. Optional AI memory ideas explain what is sent to OpenAI and start only when you ask. Try three requests free; Premium includes up to 40 per UTC day. YOUR DAY, YOUR RULES A focused session, a few flashcards, a task you have been putting off: small actions become time you have earned. An internet connection is required to earn and sync minutes. Blocking apps requires Screen Time authorization on a compatible iPhone. Screen Time picker selections stay on your device; account content syncs through the Earnlocker service. SUBSCRIPTIONS Earnlocker Premium is available through a yearly auto-renewable subscription. Eligible new subscribers can try the yearly plan free for 7 days. The purchase screen shows the current price, trial eligibility and renewal terms. Manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple account settings. Deleting the app or your Earnlocker account does not cancel an Apple subscription.
