## What is Mindlock?

Mindlock locks the apps you scroll too much. To get back in, solve a quick puzzle. Each puzzle earns you a few minutes.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Allow Screen Time. Mindlock uses Apple's Screen Time to lock apps.
2. Pick what to lock: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Reddit, whole categories, or any app.
3. Open a locked app and Mindlock's lock screen shows up. Tap Earn time and solve a puzzle.
4. Your minutes only count down while you use locked apps. When they run out, the apps lock again.

PUZZLES PAY LESS THE MORE YOU EARN IN A DAY
A quick break stays easy. A lost afternoon takes real work.

FOUR KINDS OF PUZZLES
• Math sprint: answer a quick run of sums
• Sudoku: fill the grid so no number repeats
• Picture grid (nonogram): use the number clues to color in a hidden picture
• Target: combine the numbers to hit the target
New puzzles every time. They get harder as you get better.

CAN'T I JUST TURN IT OFF?
Yes. Mindlock just makes you stop and choose.
• Need an app right now? Wait 60 seconds and type a short sentence to get 5 minutes.
• Don't trust yourself today? Hard mode locks Mindlock's settings for 24 hours.

ONE WALLET ON EVERY SCREEN
Sign in with Apple to keep the same minutes on your iPhone, iPad and Mac. Signing in is optional.

YOUR APPS STAY PRIVATE
Apple doesn't tell Mindlock which apps you lock or how you use them. That stays in Screen Time on your iPhone.

FREE AND PRO
You get 7 days of Pro free, no card needed. The free plan locks up to 3 apps or categories with math sprints and small sudoku. Pro unlocks every puzzle, unlimited apps, syncing and hard mode.
Pro is a monthly or yearly subscription through your Apple Account and renews until you cancel.
