## What is Eskal?

No more phone in bed.

Eskal blocks the apps you choose at bedtime. In the morning, they stay blocked until you scan the barcode of an item from your bathroom: your toothpaste, your shower gel. To get your apps back, you have to get out of bed.

HOW IT WORKS
• Choose the apps and categories to block.
• Set your bedtime and wake-up time, night by night.
• Register an item from your bathroom: a photo and its barcode.
• At night, your apps lock. In the morning, you scan your item and your day begins.

A VOYAGE, NIGHT AFTER NIGHT
Every night, your sailboat crosses the sea. Every morning you scan your item, it reaches a new port of call: a new stop on the map, one week per region, an endless trip around the world. Customize your character, fit out your boat and earn achievements along the way.

SIMPLE, NO EXTRA SETTINGS
• One schedule per night: earlier on Sunday, later on Friday.
• 3 emergency unlocks per month, for real emergencies.
• A reminder 30 minutes before bedtime, if you want it.
• Your night streak, your record and your calendar.

YOUR PRIVACY
Eskal works through Apple's Screen Time: the app never sees the names of the apps you block. No account. Your history and settings stay on your iPhone and in your iCloud.

SUBSCRIPTION
Eskal is an auto-renewable subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase, or at the end of the free trial if one is offered. The subscription renews automatically unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel it at any time in your App Store account settings.
