## What is Sanva?

Meditate before you scroll.

Sanva helps you put your morning practice before the apps that pull you in. Choose what to block, build a routine that fits your day, and give yourself time to practice before you start scrolling.

Build your morning routine

Choose from meditation, breathwork, affirmations, visualization, journaling and gratitude. Adjust your routine to suit the time you have.

Keep distracting apps out of your morning

Sanva uses Apple's Screen Time controls to block the apps and categories you choose. Complete your morning practice to lift the morning block, or keep selected apps blocked longer with extra morning protection.

End your day with a practice

Set an evening curfew, reflect on your day and follow a night routine. Listen to night audio, import your own audio files or add YouTube links to your practice.

Turn your plans into daily action

Choose three Daily wins to work toward. Use Vision to reflect on what you want to build and how you want to live.

Spot patterns in your journal

Write about your day, then use optional AI journal reviews to explore recurring themes in your entries. Return to your writing and see what has changed over time.

See the days you showed up

Track your streaks, mindful minutes and practice history. Look back through weekly reviews and keep building a routine that works for you.

Your choices, your data

No account is required. You choose blocked apps through Apple's private picker. Sanva does not receive the names of the apps or categories you select.

I especially love the app-blocking feature, which encourages me to meditate before getting distracted and helps me focus on what really matters. Such a simple but powerful addition to my daily routine!
