Gua: Screen Time & Focus

Gua helps you use your phone on purpose. Most screen-time tools are easy to ignore — one tap and the block is gone. Gua is built on a simple idea: breaking a commitment to yourself should take more than a tap. So you set up "lines of defense," and getting past a block means going through them first. BLOCK WHAT PULLS YOU IN • Schedule blocks for the hours that matter — mornings, work, wind-down. • Set daily time limits on specific apps and websites. • Block by app, by website, or by whole category. PUT REAL FRICTION BETWEEN YOU AND THE SCROLL Choose one or more lines of defense. To take a break from a block, you pass them first: • Accountability buddy — a friend approves your break. • Create something first — write, record, or sketch before you consume. BUILT TO KEEP YOU HONEST • Weakening a block requires passing your defenses — no quiet backsliding. • Take a timed break when you genuinely need one, then it re-blocks automatically. • See your streaks and progress over time. Gua runs on your device using Apple's Screen Time technology. Your block list never leaves your phone in a readable form. Start with one block and one line of defense. Small steps, real change. ``` ### What's New (for v1) > The first version of Gua. Block apps and websites, set limits and schedules, and > put a real line of defense between you and the scroll.
