## What is Judgy?

Your screen time, judged by a tiny goblin who cares. A bit too much.

Judgy is a screen time pet and app blocker. Pick the apps that eat your day and set a daily limit. The goblin watches, gets suspicious as you get close, and stands in front of those apps when you hit your limit. Stay under it and it's thrilled. Blow past it and, well, it noticed.

WHY IT WORKS
Tracking alone doesn't change much. A limit that someone is watching does. Judgy turns your daily limit into a little character you don't want to disappoint, and gives you a reason to put the phone down.

WHAT YOU GET, FREE
• Screen time limits on the apps you pick: social media, games, whole categories or websites
• The goblin's shield: at your limit, those apps show its face and a judging line instead
• "15 more minutes" when you really need it (it will remember)
• Focus sessions of any length, from 15 minutes to 4 hours: it blocks your picks until you're done — on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, from Control Center, or with Siri
• A good-day streak: every day under your limit makes it happier
• Your week, judged: a verdict card you can share
• Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets
• A cozy 3D goblin with a room that follows the time of day, a voice, and opinions about you

DRESS IT UP — BUT EARN IT
Put the phone down and earn buttons: for every good day, every focus session (longer sessions earn more), and every streak milestone. Spend them in the goblin's shop on 3D hats, glasses, collars and charms, and new rooms: a log cabin, a library, a night garden, a space cabin. Rare crafts, a collection book and a streak road keep it going for months. This winter: a Santa hat, reindeer antlers and a Christmas room.

JUDGY PLUS
• Strict mode: only three "15 more minutes" a day, and sessions you can't abandon
• Ask me first: every time you open a picked app, the goblin asks first — one breath, then 15 minutes
• Focus blocks: the goblin guards Bedtime and Work hours every day
• Half again as many buttons, and Plus-only items
Try it free for 7 days with the yearly plan, or buy it once with Lifetime.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your screen time never leaves your phone. Judgy uses Apple's Screen Time framework: the app never sees which apps you use or for how long, and there are no accounts, no ads and no tracking.

Judgy Plus is an optional subscription (monthly or yearly) or a one-time Lifetime purchase. Room and season packs are optional one-time purchases; buttons are never sold. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel them in Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions. A free trial, where offered, becomes a paid subscription when it ends.

The goblin now watches your screen time.

### 2.1 — 2026-11-06

Your pet is awake now.

It blinks. It looks around. It watches the food arrive, side-eyes you when you poke too much, and moves its mouth when it talks.

It also has a voice: small muttered syllables, grumpy or cheerful depending on its mood. It follows your silent switch, and you can turn it off in Settings if it judges too loudly.

The room keeps your hours: morning light, sunsets, stars at night, and fairy lights in the evening.

Plus a bigger pet and a few small fixes.

### 2.0.1 — 2026-11-02

Your pet would like to be rated. It will ask once, at a moment of its choosing, and only if it thinks you've earned the right to have an opinion.

It also has a new name. Same pet. Same judgement.

### 2.0 — 2026-10-30

Your pet stopped repeating itself. Then it started wanting things.

IT WANTS SOMETHING
Every visit, your pet has one thing on its mind, shown in a little thought cloud. Get it right and it is (briefly) delighted. Get it wrong and you will hear exactly what it actually wanted. Sometimes it just wants to be left alone, and noticing that counts too.

WHILE YOU WERE AWAY
Stay away a few hours and your pet gets up to something: building a shrine to itself, writing poetry, staging a small drama. Some of it ends up on a new shelf in its room. Tap the shelf to read the story behind each piece.

TWICE AS MUCH TO SAY
Over a thousand hand-written lines, and it won't repeat itself until it has said them all. Watch it quietly and it starts thinking out loud. Feed it when it's already full and it will mention that.

THE ROOM SHOWS IT
An empty bowl, a stray sock: you can see when it needs you. And when your chances run out for the hour, it sends you off in its own words.

ALSO
The home-screen widget keeps up with your pet and matches its face, the room no longer shifts around, and plenty of dark-mode and accessibility polish.

### 1.1 — 2026-07-28

The pet got a glow-up and a much better vocabulary.

REDRAWN, TOP TO BOTTOM
The whole app has been rebuilt — new type, new color, real illustrated rooms and props, and a warmer look that finally matches the pet's personality. It looks like somewhere a small creature actually lives.

REACTIONS THAT MEAN SOMETHING
Every action is now properly animated. Food arrives and gets eaten. A hand comes in and pets it. Apologize to a pet that's still annoyed with you and it will turn away before it decides to forgive you.

A HOME-SCREEN WIDGET
Your pet's mood and latest line, on your home screen, judging you in passing.

MORE TO SAY
Hundreds of new lines across every mood, time of day, and mood swing — plus a diary the pet keeps during your absences.

RARE MOODS
Two new moods that only appear under specific conditions. No, we're not telling you which.

MEMORIES
Milestone moments are saved as keepsakes you can look back on or share.

ALSO
Poke the pet directly for a reaction. Share any line as a card. Faster, smoother, and fully accessible — Dynamic Type, VoiceOver, and Reduce Motion all supported.
