## What is Lighthouse?

Stop doomscrolling one small challenge at a time. Lighthouse turns a dopamine detox into a daily game you can actually finish.

Every day you get at least three short, screen-free challenges: an app-free hour, a no-social-media morning, a phone-free meal, a mindful walk, grayscale mode, a digital sunset, five minutes of breathing. Complete them and the fog around your lighthouse clears. Keep going and its beam grows brighter.

HOW IT WORKS
• Choose a daily commitment between 10 and 60 minutes.
• Get today's challenges, picked from a set of 25.
• Finish all of today's challenges to keep your streak alive.
• Log your mood, energy and screen time in a few seconds.

Lighthouse is a habit coach, not a gatekeeper. It never takes control of your phone or your other apps, and screen time is a number you enter yourself. The change comes from you; Lighthouse makes it easier to show up every day.

FREE: INCLUDED FOR EVERYONE
• Daily detox challenges (at least 3 a day, from 25)
• The living lighthouse on your Today screen
• A 25-minute focus session, with Siri and Shortcuts support ("Start a focus session in Lighthouse")
• Daily log: mood, energy and self-reported screen time
• XP, 10 levels (from Foggy to Crystal Clear) and 30 medal badges
• Daily quests and a 7-day daily reward track
• Streaks, streak freezes that protect a missed day, and a streak calendar
• Progress charts for the last 7 days
• Shareable progress cards
• Home Screen widgets (streak and daily tip)

LIGHTHOUSE PRO: OPTIONAL PAID UPGRADE
• Focus presets: Deep Work 90, Pomodoro 25, Reading 30, Meditation 15, Exercise 45
• Custom focus sessions
• Weekly quests
• 30-day and 90-day progress charts
• PDF report export

WHO IT'S FOR
• You pick up your phone without deciding to, and want that to stop
• You tried a digital detox and it lasted two days
• Students and remote workers who want a simple focus timer with a reason to come back tomorrow
• Anyone who does better with small daily wins and streaks than with strict rules
