## What is Reconnect?

The opposite of addiction is connection.

Reconnect blocks explicit content and makes scripture and prayer the way back.

The moment you reach for explicit content, Reconnect locks the path and turns you toward God: a loving Father who cares for you and transforms you. 

REAL BLOCKING
• On-device detection in Safari, with a calm overlay the instant something explicit appears.
• Adult sites blocked in every browser on your phone through an on-device content filter.
• Other browsers steered back to Safari, where protection runs deepest.
• A site list of your own, added to everything already covered.
• With Reconnect Plus, a comprehensive filter list: thousands of sites, updated monthly.
• On iOS 26, a built-in system content filter backs up Reconnect's own list.

A LIMIT ON THE APPS THAT PULL AT YOU
Choose the apps you lose hours in and set how long one sitting can run. Pass your limit and those apps lock, Reconnect brings you into the practice, and they stay closed for the whole break you chose. They reopen on their own when it ends.

THE PRACTICE IS THE KEY
When the path locks, Reconnect walks you through four short beats:
• Breathe. A breath prayer to break the pull.
• Be present. A few minutes with God: scripture, a short prayer, or silence, for as long as you choose.
• Name it. A check-in (Hungry, Angry, Lonely, Tired?) and a private journal.
• Reach out. One tap to text or call your person.
Completing the practice is the only unlock. Reach for it again soon after and the flow changes: a longer breath, a different passage, a stronger nudge toward your person.

AN ACCOUNTABILITY PARTNER, ON YOUR TERMS
With Reconnect Plus, invite a trusted friend to walk with you:
• They hear when you complete the practice and get a weekly count.
• If protection turns off, comes back on, or the app stops checking in for over 24 hours, they are told.
• If you choose, they hold the passcode that locks your settings, so your guardrails stay up in a weak moment.
• You invite them, you choose each thing they can see, and you can end the partnership at any time.
Being someone's partner is always free.

FIND YOUR PEOPLE
The Community tab carries a curated list of recovery communities and fellowships. Type your ZIP code to see groups near you.

ONE ACCOUNT, EVERY DEVICE
With Reconnect Plus, sign in and your settings follow you: your cooldown, your app limits, your person, your own site list. The Account screen shows who you are signed in as, what your subscription unlocks, which devices are signed in, and every way out, including deleting your account.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Detection happens on your device; no screenshots. Your journal and your browsing stay on your phone. Signing in syncs your settings, nothing else. If you invite a partner, they receive practice counts and protection status through the channels you chose.

FOR YOUR OWN USE
Reconnect is a voluntary tool for Christians who want freedom from addiction to explicit content and are choosing it for themselves. It is not a tool for monitoring another person.

HONEST ABOUT COVERAGE
Reconnect protects Safari deeply, blocks adult sites in every browser, and funnels other browsers back to Safari. It does not watch the content of feeds inside other apps, like TikTok or Instagram; for those, it helps you set time limits instead. Coverage is stated plainly in onboarding and in Settings.

Reconnect exists so that the moment of temptation becomes the moment you turn to God.

Reconnect Plus is an optional auto-renewing monthly subscription; the rest of the app stays free. Payment is charged to your Apple Account and renews unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage anytime in Settings.

AN ACCOUNTABILITY PARTNER
• Invite a trusted friend. They hear when you complete the practice and get a weekly count. Being someone's partner is always free.
• Hand them the key. If you choose, your partner holds the passcode that locks your settings, and can unlock it when you ask.
• Tamper alerts. If protection turns off, comes back on, or the app stops checking in for over 24 hours, your partner is told.
• You stay in charge. You invite them, you see exactly what they see, you choose each channel, and you can end it at any time.

FIND YOUR PEOPLE
• A hand picked list of recovery communities and fellowships. Type your ZIP to see groups near you.

STRONGER BLOCKING
• Reconnect Plus adds the comprehensive filter list: thousands of explicit sites, updated every month.
• Add any other sites you'd rather not visit, on top of everything already covered.
• App time limits now hold. Pass your limit and those apps lock, stay closed for the whole break, and reopen on their own when it ends.
• Reach for the same thing twice in a short window and the practice changes rather than repeats.

ONE ACCOUNT, EVERY DEVICE
• Sign in and your settings follow you: your cooldown, your app limits, your person, your own site list.
• A new Account screen holds who you are signed in as, what your subscription unlocks, which devices are signed in, and the exits, including deleting your account.

Your journal, what you type, and your browsing stay on your phone.
