## What is GoalLock?

It's not that you don't want to focus. Your phone is just really good at stealing your attention.

GoalLock doesn't forbid you from scrolling. It does just one thing: before you open the apps that distract you, it puts your life goal front and center — making you take one look before you decide whether to go in.

A lot of the time, that one look is enough to put the phone down.

【How it works】
Write down the goal you most want to achieve right now
Pick a few apps that distract you the most
From then on, you'll see your goal every time you open them

【Why it works】
APA research shows that visual cues can interrupt distraction before it happens, turning willpower into instinct. People who see their goal every day reach it at a noticeably higher rate.

【What you get】
・Feature 1: A goal reminder screen before you open a distracting app → refocuses you on your goal.
・Feature 2: Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets → your goal, always in sight.
・Feature 3: Deadline countdown → shows how long is left until your deadline.
・Feature 4: Screen time stats → quantify your distraction.

Simple, clean, no nonsense.
Stop fighting your willpower head-on. Let your goal remind you, once a day, every day.

### 1.7.1 — 2026-07-16

This update adds a few thoughtful touches to help you stay focused:

・Redesigned unlock screen: to keep using an app, you'll first find the "unlock" key among a grid of buttons — a small pause that gives you a moment to reconsider.
・New Grayscale Mode tip: learn how to switch your screen to black-and-white in a tap, cutting visual stimulation so your phone feels a lot less tempting.
・Refreshed home screen: Fybo takes center stage, with your unlock count and daily goal at a glance.
・Daily goal explainer: tap to see how many unlocks to aim for today — and the reasoning behind it.

Plus various UI refinements to help you reclaim your attention!

### 1.7.0 — 2026-07-14

・Dark mode fixes: stats page and weekly leaderboards now display correctly in dark mode.
・A more intuitive approval flow with visual block-screen previews for flexible and strict modes.
・New "Follow Us" section in Settings to stay in the loop.
・Added daily focus celebrations: keep your unlocks low for a day and the next time you open the app, confetti and Fybo cheer you on — the longer your streak, the bigger the party.
Plus various refinements and bug fixes. We'd love your feedback in the app — we're always improving!
