Hitokokyu: Pause Before Apps

No Screen Time permission needed. Hitokokyu puts a short pause between you and the apps you open without thinking. The moment you go to open Instagram or X, it asks you to take one breath first. Stopping the "I opened it before I knew it" habit doesn't take a hard block. It takes a few seconds of space. ■ As many apps as you want ・No limit on the number of target apps ・Social, video, news, and games — cover them all ・No "one app only" restriction ■ No Screen Time access ・Most app limiters ask for iOS Screen Time permission ・Hitokokyu runs on Shortcuts automations, so it never asks for it ・The app never learns what you use or for how long ■ Watch the times you turned back add up ・It counts every time you went to open an app and stopped ・The focus is on turning back, not on minutes saved ・See what time of day you reach for your phone on autopilot ・A weekly recap every Monday, which you can share as an image ■ A pause that doesn't wear off ・The more you choose "Open Anyway" in a day, the longer the pause gets ・Set a daily limit per app; past it, you type a phrase instead ・A different short prompt every time, or write your own ・Write down why you want to cut back, and see it when you pause ■ Use it without opening it ・Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets for today's turn-backs, rate, and streak ・Start a Focus Session from a widget or Control Center — you'll pause every time until it ends ・Turn on a Focus filter to pause every time during Work or any other Focus ・Grace periods and Focus Sessions count down on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island ■ Private by design ・Everything stays on your device. Nothing is sent anywhere ・No account, no ads, no data collection ■ One thing to know before you start ・You create one automation per target app in the Shortcuts app ・Hitokokyu walks you through it, step by step (about 30 seconds per app) ・That small setup is why you never have to hand over Screen Time access Before you open it, take one breath.
