## What is GlowLock?

What if you understood exactly why you reach for your phone — and had a plan to change it?

GlowLock helps you break the scroll loop by uncovering your triggers, building a personalized habit-change plan, and coaching you through it one intentional moment at a time.

SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED
GlowLock Premium is required to use the app. New subscribers can start with a 7-day free trial on the yearly plan ($79.99/year, equivalent to $6.67/month), then billed annually. A monthly plan is also available at $16.99/month (no free trial). Pricing is shown in-app before purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID. Subscription auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel in Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Map your scroll triggers: identify the emotions and apps driving your habit
2. Build your plan: set implementation intentions for what you'll do instead
3. Block with intention: custom shields pause you before you scroll
4. Get coached: your AI Habit Coach helps you understand patterns and stay on track
5. See your progress: behavioral insights show when, why, and how long you scroll

It's not just an app blocker. It's a system to understand your habit and change it for good.

WHY THIS APPROACH WORKS
Research-backed behavior change works when you:
• Understand the emotion behind the urge (not just the app)
• Have a specific plan for what to do instead
• Get accountability when motivation fades
• Track patterns so you can see what's actually working

GlowLock combines Screen Time blocking, personalized planning, AI coaching, and behavioral insights into one focused system.

PREMIUM FEATURES (subscription required)
• Personalized Onboarding: see your real screen time impact and set focus goals
• Emotional Trigger Mapping: identify why you scroll (bored, anxious, restless, and more)
• Implementation Intentions: build a plan for what you'll do instead of scrolling
• Smart App Blocking: unlimited app and website blocking with custom shields using Apple's Screen Time API
• AI Habit Coach: personalized guidance on your scrolling patterns and emotional triggers (not medical advice)
• Behavioral Insights: see when, why, and how long you scroll
• Friends Accountability: share daily unlock time with people you choose
• Progress Tracking: streaks, session history, and milestones as you build the habit

THE GLOWLOCK DIFFERENCE
Most app blockers just restrict you. GlowLock helps you understand why you scroll and gives you a coach and a plan to fix it — so you're not fighting willpower, you're rewiring the habit.

PRIVACY & SECURITY
Your data is encrypted and synced securely. Screen time data stays on your device — we never see which apps you use. GlowLock works entirely through Apple's official Screen Time API.

Start understanding your scroll habit today.
