About

Give the first part of your morning back to a book. Readify Lock holds your apps closed until you have read today's page. Not a reminder you can swipe away — a real door, and reading is the key. The point isn't the lock. It's the quiet stretch before the day starts talking. HOW THE LOCK WORKS, PLAINLY Readify Lock uses Apple's Screen Time (Family Controls) to pause every app it can reach on your iPhone, at a time your reading plan sets and shows you in your own time zone before you join. This is not a per-app picker: while the lock is on, the apps it can reach do not open. Granting Screen Time permission is required to join a reading plan — pausing your apps is the whole product, so a plan without it would do nothing at all. You can sign in and browse the Library without granting it. YOUR DAY 1. At the lock time, your apps stop opening. 2. You read today's page. One focused page, one idea worth keeping. 3. You answer one question about it. The server confirms it, the lock lifts, and your apps stay open for the rest of the day. Miss the question twice and Readify still opens your apps — you simply don't earn that day's streak or XP. One hard question should not cost you your phone. READING THAT GOES SOMEWHERE Your reading comes from reading plans: structured programmes of 1 to 31 days, some written by hand and some written with AI and edited before publishing. Find one in the Library, or enter the six-character code someone sent you. Today keeps your plan, your streak and your progress on one page. CREATE YOUR OWN Once you're signed in, you can create a reading plan in the Create tab: write it yourself, or have AI write it from a topic, a photo or a file (PDF, TXT or Markdown) and watch each day being written. You can edit every day before you publish, then share it by code. A plan is listed publicly in the Library only after review. You don't join your own plans. WHAT YOU CAN COUNT ON • There is always a way out. Open Readify and one tap releases your apps for the day — you see the cost before you confirm. • If today's reading cannot be delivered, Readify unlocks rather than leaving you stuck. • Nothing locks until you join a reading plan. Readify's own monthly programmes offer to carry you into the next month's edition; that choice is a switch on the join screen, set before you confirm and changeable at any time. • Readify stores no list of your installed apps and no app-usage history. • Once you have joined, the lock time you agreed to cannot be changed on you. • You can report a plan or block a creator from the Library at any time. LEAVING You can leave a reading plan whenever you want. Turning Screen Time off also ends your active plan, and the progress and streak inside it are gone — Readify cannot keep a plan running when it can no longer pause anything. You can join again whenever you like. Fully available in English and Romanian. This release has no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, and no ads.
