## What is Friends67?

FRIENDS67 is an app that finally works against doomscrolling,
so you can get your life back & achieve your goals.
You’ve probably tried setting limits before.
The problem is that they’re too easy to override, and no one notices when you tap
“Ignore Limit” for the 123rd time. So social media wins by default.

Friends67 finally changes that.

You should be the one in control of your life. Not social media.

When you have the urge to scroll past your limit, a selfie to your friends is required. 
Your friends hold you accountable and see when you give up.
One friend is enough to change your screen time.

HOW IT WORKS
Choose the apps you want to limit.
Set your daily limits.
Invite your friends.
When your time is up, your apps lock.
Have the urge to scroll past your limit?
Send a selfie to your friends.

FRIEND APPROVAL
Sometimes you really need more time.
Sometimes you’re just scrolling.
Accountability saves you from doomscrolling.

DAILY LIMITS
Set daily limits for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, X, Snapchat, games, or any other app.
Every app has its own limit. Limits reset every day.

EASY MODE
Need more time?
Take a selfie.
Unlock it.

HARDCORE MODE
Want real accountability?
Every unlock request goes to your friends.
Your friends have to approve.
No exceptions.

DOWNTIME
Need time to study? Work? Sleep?
Create Downtime and keep distracting apps locked at specific times.

SESSIONS
Want to block apps for the next 3 hours? Just start a session!
You can also start sessions together with your friends and stay locked in together.

EMERGENCY TOKENS
Need access during Hardcore Mode but your friends aren’t available?
Use an Emergency Token.
Save it for when you really need it.

YOUR PROGRESS
See how much time you’re saving.
Watch your screen time go down and take back your time.

PRIVACY
Friends67 uses Apples Screen Time API in order to monitor and block your apps.
We never see what you do inside your apps.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.0.1 — 2026-09-03

empty screens now show what they'll look like once you're using them —
a sample downtime rule, a study session, a couple of friend requests.

picking your mode during setup previews what each one actually does,
side by side.

the "were you invited?" screen works properly now: what you were given
shows up straight away instead of on the next launch, and a code that
doesn't work finally tells you why.

clearer wording on the evening shield, the friends tab and the invite screen.
