## What is MEANT?

Do what you meant to.

MEANT helps you protect your attention before distraction takes over.

Create recurring Plans for work, reading, exercise, sleep or time with people you care about. When a Plan begins, MEANT uses Apple’s Screen Time controls to shield the apps, categories and supported websites you chose.

DECIDE BEFORE THE SCROLL

• Schedule recurring Plans around what matters.
• Use Protect Now for a one-off focused moment.
• Save private Protection Profiles and reuse them.
• See your intention on the shield when distraction appears.

ACCESS WITHOUT A LOOPHOLE

Need an app briefly? Take a deliberate five- or ten-minute Pass. Access ends automatically and your original protection returns. Apps selected only as part of a category remain protected because Apple does not identify the individual app in that situation.

A RECEIPT, NOT A SCORE

See protected time, completed Plans and intentional Passes without streaks, points or shame. Share a privacy-safe Receipt when you choose.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Your Plans, protected selections, intentions and Receipt history stay on your device. MEANT has no account, advertising, tracking, analytics or Rovira Labs backend. Protected app identities are never included in Receipts.

FREE TO START

The free version includes one enabled recurring Plan, one reusable Protection Profile and unlimited Protect Now sessions.

MEANT+ unlocks multiple enabled recurring Plans and unlimited reusable Protection Profiles. Each selected weekday on an enabled Plan uses one of Apple’s 20 available monitoring activities. MEANT allows 18 enabled Plan days and reserves two activities so Protect Now and timed Passes remain available.

MEANT supports iPhone and iPad. Screen Time permission is required for protection features.
