## What is Human Hours?

Your phone was engineered to win your attention. Human Hours is a counterweight - a small app built around one belief: your hours are yours to spend.

MINDFUL PAUSES

Choose the app that eats your hours. When you open it, Human Hours steps in first with a calm, full-screen question. Close the app and keep the moment, or continue for a short, deliberate window. If you wrote your own reason for keeping the app around, Human Hours brings it back when it matters.

A JOURNAL FOR THE MOMENTS YOU'D OTHERWISE MISS

Why did you pick up your phone? A task, a reply, boredom, escape, or just habit - log it in one tap and let your own patterns come into focus. Awareness, not shame, is where change starts.

FLOW FOR TIME YOU ALREADY CHOSE TO PROTECT

Start a focused session in Human Hours or from Control Center, Siri, Shortcuts, timers, and saved habits. Flow blocking is available to everyone and can keep supported apps out of reach for the session. Pro lets you choose the apps that remain available.

FRESH MIND FOR THE EDGES OF YOUR DAY

Protect a morning window and an evening window with a recurring routine. The full routine is free. Pro adds a private allowlist and can link it to the apps you already allow during Deep Work.

CIRCLES FOR COMMITMENTS YOU KEEP TOGETHER

Create or join a Circle for Flow, Fresh Mind, or app discipline. Human Hours turns each person's completed days into a shared streak, while keeping Screen Time details and private reasons out of the circle. Circles use Apple's iCloud sharing, so there is no Human Hours account to create.

SOMETHING SMALL THAT GROWS WHEN YOU DO

A baby dinosaur hatches when you begin. It grows with your choices - every pause you sit with and every app you close instead of open.

A WEEK, HANDED BACK TO YOU

See Flow history and a weekly reflection that brings your pauses, step-aways, and journal entries together kindly, never as a report card. Pro also unlocks widgets for Year Progress, Daily Momentum, Screen Battle, Life Impact, and quick Journal entry.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Screen Time totals, selected apps and websites, Journal content, reasons, reflections, Story progress, and protection rules stay on your device. If you use Circles, only the circle identity, your chosen member identity, membership details, calendar boundary, and completion-day labels are shared through Apple's private and shared CloudKit databases. Human Hours has no analytics, ads, or Human Hours server.

HUMAN HOURS PRO

Free protects one app with unlimited standard Intent Checks and includes Flow blocking, Fresh Mind, and up to three Circles. Pro adds protection for multiple apps and websites, custom pause lengths, attempt caps, quick actions, private allowlists, unlimited Circles, weekly reflection, widgets, and 30 days of Journal history. Eligible new yearly subscribers can try Pro free for seven days; the monthly plan starts right away with no trial.

Your hours are the only thing you truly spend. Human Hours helps more of them end up where you meant them to go.
