## What is RoutineGate?

RoutineGate helps you create focused time using Screen Time by limiting selected apps, categories, and websites.
If you keep opening things “just for a second,” set simple time rules and stay on track.

■ What you can do
• Choose apps, categories, and websites to block
• See your current status and time remaining on the Home screen

■ Two ways to block
• Schedule Blocks→Set days and start/end time to block during specific time windows.
• Timer Blocks→Set a daily total limit (minutes) and block after you reach it.

■ Unlock & pause (behavior depends on the mode)
• Allow immediate unlock, unlock after a waiting time, or disallow unlock
• Pick the intensity that fits your routine.

■ Premium (auto-renewable subscription)
• Monthly / yearly plans
• Includes stronger focus modes and enhanced anti-bypass features (within iOS limitations).
• Pricing, billing, and free-trial availability follow what’s shown in the App Store and your settings.
• Manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings.

■ Languages
• Japanese / English (switch in Settings; follows device language if not selected)

■ Important note
• Blocking/unlocking behavior depends on iOS and Screen Time permission. Some features require permission to work.
