## What is Lockn?

Lockn is a focus planner built for real days, not perfect ones.

Todo list keeps growing? Getting distracted by your phone? Lockn gives you a stronger system. Add your tasks, set your work hours, choose the apps you want blocked. In under a second, Lockn turns your day into a focused schedule with sessions, calculated breaks, meals, and commitments already built in.

WHY LOCKN WORKS

TIME BLOCK YOUR DAY IN ONE CLICK
Add tasks once and let Lockn build a realistic daily plan around your work window. It decides what fits, what comes next, and where each block should go, so you are not dragging calendar blocks around every morning.

COMMITMENT BLOCKS
Class, work meetings, gym, appointments, lectures, commutes, and other fixed parts of your day can be saved as commitment blocks. Lockn treats them as protected time and plans your focus sessions around them, not over them.

NEVER BURN OUT AGAIN - AUTO BREAKS
Every focus block can include a break automatically. Lockn calculates break time from the length and intensity of the work, so a short light task gets a smaller reset while deeper work earns more recovery. 

MEAL-AWARE PLANNING
Your day is not one endless work window. Lockn can account for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, keeping focus sessions away from meal times so the plan fits real life. It even schedules your work day such that a longer task will come before your meal so your meal doubles as a break!

REAL APP BLOCKING
During a focus session, Lockn can block distracting apps and websites. Choose what gets blocked, then start your session and stay with the work. Your phone doesn't need to be completely un-usable when working. Once the session is over, everything gets unblocked automatically.

ADAPTIVE RESCHEDULING
Real life happens. If you miss a block or fall behind, Lockn helps move the work into the next available slot while respecting meals and commitment blocks, instead of making you rebuild the whole day.

FINISH EARLY? INSTANT RESTRUCTURING 
Complete a block ahead of schedule? Lockn restructures the rest of your day, finding the most efficient way to organise the remaining tasks given the extra time all while respecting fixed blocks.

WE DON’T LOCK YOU IN OUR APP
Keep an eye on your session at all times. Live Activities show your countdown on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island while you stay focused. You can get work done on your phone too, we get that.

FRIENDS FOR ACCOUNTABILITY
See when friends are locked in and let them see when you are working too. No noisy feed, no performance pressure, just quiet presence that makes it easier to start.

STREAKS AND HEATMAPS
Track completed sessions, weekly progress, streaks, and your recent focus history so each day of effort builds into something visible. Streaks are session based not by day; not everyday is a work day!

A SCHEDULE BUILT FOR YOU
Lockn can account for whether you prefer hard work in the morning or later in the day, placing deeper tasks when your brain is more ready for them. 

Lockn is for students, creators, founders, and knowledge workers who have tried todo lists, Pomodoro timers, habit trackers, calendars, and Notion setups, but still struggle to actually start and follow through.

Plan the day. Win the day. Repeat.
