## What is Focus Coach?

Most app blockers only lock apps.

Focus Coach adds a pause before you use them.


Focus Coach is the app’s built-in guide for intentional app use. Instead of unblocking distracting apps instantly, it asks why you want to open the app and how long you plan to use it. That helps you slow down, think clearly, and start with intention instead of impulse.


With Focus Coach, you can:
• Block distracting apps and categories
• Define your purpose before unlocking
• Set a planned time before you start
• Get temporary access instead of unlimited unblocking
• Re-block automatically when time runs out
• Protect sleep hours with the same intentional flow

Focus Coach is for people who do not just want more restrictions. It is for people who want better decisions before they use distracting apps.

Use Focus Coach to:
• Reduce mindless scrolling
• Stay focused during work or study
• Control late-night app use
• Use social apps more deliberately
• Build calmer screen habits over time

If simple limits and reminders have not worked for you, Focus Coach adds a more thoughtful step: know why you are opening the app, choose how long you need, and then use it with a plan.
