## What is Real Surf?

Reclaim your focus, beat distractions, and take back control of your time with Real Surf.

Whether you are trying to study for finals, get deep work done, or simply stop doom-scrolling before bed, Real Surf is your ultimate screen time companion. Built securely with Apple’s native Screen Time API, Real Surf strictly blocks the apps and websites that distract you the most, so you can focus on what actually matters.

UNDERSTAND YOUR HABITS

The Rainbow Chart: Tap to explode your screen time data into a beautiful, interactive rainbow chart. See exactly where your minutes are going.

Weekly Insights: Get an automated Monday report comparing your screen time to the previous week so you can celebrate your progress.

CUSTOM BLOCK MODES

 Modular Blocking: Create custom presets. Want a "Reading" mode that only blocks social media? Or a "Phone-Only" mode that blocks everything except calls? You are in complete control.

Schedule It: Set it and forget it. Schedule blocks to automatically trigger during work hours, bedtimes, or study sessions.

THE SECRET ESCAPE (WITH A CATCH)
We know relapses happen. If you urgently need to bypass a block, you can use the pulsing lock escape—but you have to earn it. Set your own "Unlock Difficulty" requiring hundreds of taps just to bail out, preventing impulsive unlocking. Feeling lucky? Turn on the Gamble feature for a rare 1% chance to instantly bypass a block.

STRICT PRIVACY
Your data never leaves your device. Real Surf uses Apple's official Family Controls and local device APIs to monitor and block apps. We cannot see what apps you use, and we never sell your data.

REAL SURF PRO
Upgrade to Real Surf Pro to unlock unlimited schedules, custom block presets, advanced screen time history, and total control over your digital life.

Stop surfing. Start focusing. Download Real Surf today.
