## What is Nopal?

Make focus cheaper.

Most app blockers charge you $20 a month, forever, just to do one simple thing. Your focus shouldn't be a subscription.

Nopal blocks the apps you choose for as long as you choose. That's it. Pay once, keep it for life.

HOW IT WORKS
• Pick the apps to block and set a duration.
• Choose your strength:
   - Soft block: when you need in, take a short timed break. Your apps unlock for a few minutes, then re-lock on their own. Free forever.
   - Hard block: no early exit until the timer ends. For when you really mean it.
• Or set schedules that block automatically: work hours, evenings, weekends.

SEE IT AT A GLANCE
• A Home Screen widget and a Lock Screen Live Activity show your active block and its countdown, so you always know what's blocked and for how long.

NO GIMMICKS
No streaks. No achievements. No leaderboards. Nothing to game. It just blocks.

HONEST PRICING
Soft blocks are free, always. Hard blocks are free for 7 days, then a single one-time purchase. No subscription, ever.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no sign-up, no tracking, no ads. Your apps, schedules, and settings stay on your device.

Built on Apple Screen Time. Your apps, your rules, your focus.
