## What is Holy Mode?

HolyMode helps you take back the hours your phone is taking, and give them to God instead.

It does one thing first: it shuts the door. Choose the apps, categories and websites that pull your attention where you do not want it to go, and HolyMode puts them behind a shield. When you reach for one, you get a passage of Scripture and a guided breath instead, long enough for the moment to pass.

WHAT YOU GET

Holy Mode
Block apps, whole categories and websites using Apple's own Screen Time. Turn it on from any screen. When the shield stops you, the app walks you through slow breathing and Scripture until the moment passes without taking you with it.

A streak worth keeping
One number, counted honestly, with a record of the days you stood firm and the days you did not. A setback is written down and forgiven, not hidden.

Thirty shields
Days stood are added up across your whole walk, not only since your last setback, and they earn shields. Thirty of them, from your first day to your thousandth. One hard evening never takes back what you have already earned.

The Bible, built in
Three complete public domain translations, chosen by tradition: the King James, the Douay-Rheims and the World English Bible. A reader with your choice of type and size, and a passage every day.

YOUR PROGRESS STAYS ON YOUR IPHONE

Your streak, your setbacks, your notes and the apps you chose to block never leave the device. Screen Time hands the app anonymous tokens rather than names, so HolyMode cannot see what you picked, and nothing about your selection is ever sent anywhere. No ads. No trackers. No data brokers.

SUBSCRIPTION

HolyMode is a subscription, offered weekly or annually. Prices are shown in the app before you buy, in your local currency. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and you can cancel any time in your Apple Account settings.
