## What is GitFocus?

GitFocus helps developers stay productive by rewarding coding with app access. Block distracting apps until you commit code to GitHub.

HOW IT WORKS
• Add one or more GitHub accounts (no sign-in required)
• Select apps to block during focus sessions
• Each new GitHub contribution earns you 5 minutes of unlock time
• Need emergency access? Use a life to unlock until midnight

KEY FEATURES

Commit-Based Rewards
Every time your GitHub contribution graph increases, you earn unlock time for your blocked apps. The more you code, the more time you earn.

Smart App Blocking
Uses iOS Screen Time to block apps you choose. No workarounds - the apps are truly blocked until you earn time or use a life.

Lives System
Start with 1 free life. Use it for emergency access when you need to check something urgent. Earn more lives by building your coding streak.

Time Borrowing
Need to quickly finish a message? Borrow up to 5 minutes. Your future commits will pay it back automatically.

Contribution Graph
See your GitHub activity at a glance. Watch your coding streak grow as you stay focused and productive.

Privacy First
We only read your public contribution graph (no access to your repositories or code). Your data is stored on your device, with optional iCloud sync for certain settings/statistics if iCloud is enabled.

PERFECT FOR
• Developers who want to reduce social media time
• Students learning to code
• Anyone building a coding habit
• Teams doing focus sprints

Break the doom-scrolling cycle. Start coding, start earning.

Note: Requires a public GitHub profile with visible contributions.
