## What is Proxidate?

**Put down your phones and be present with your partner.**

Proxidate automatically blocks distracting apps when you're physically close to your significant other. Using advanced Ultra-Wideband (UWB) technology, the app detects when you and your partner are nearby and helps you both focus on quality time together.

**How it works:**
• Install Proxidate on both phones
• Select which apps you want blocked during couple time
• Turn on Connect mode
• When you're close together, selected apps are automatically blocked

**Key Features:**

 **Smart Proximity Detection**
Uses UWB technology for precise distance measurement between devices - accurate to within centimeters.

 **Automatic App Blocking**
Selected apps are blocked the moment you're together. No willpower needed.

 **Works in Background**
Once connected, Proxidate runs seamlessly in the background. No need to keep the app open.

 **Customizable Distance**
Set your own proximity threshold - block apps when you're within 1 meter, 2 meters, or up to 5 meters apart.

 **Privacy First**
All data stays on your device. No accounts, no servers, no tracking. Your information is never collected or shared.

 **Live Activity Support**
See your connection status and distance right from your Lock Screen with Live Activities.

**Perfect for:**
• Date nights
• Quality time at home
• Meals together
• Movie nights
• Any moment you want to be fully present

**Requirements:**
• iPhone 11 or newer (for UWB support)
• Both partners need Proxidate installed
• iOS 16.0 or later
