## What is Screen Time Control?

Ever open an app without meaning to?

Mute makes the apps you choose unavailable during the hours you choose.
Not willpower. A wall.

THREE WAYS TO STOP
- Schedule: block apps during set hours, like 10 PM to 7 AM, or weekday mornings. Pick the days.
- Daily limit: "one hour a day." When you use it up, that app stays closed until midnight.
- Focus timer: 25, 50, or 90 minutes, or any length you like. Leave it open-ended with ∞. The countdown lives on your lock screen and in the Dynamic Island. Ending early takes one breath first.

BLOCKED MEANS QUIET
Mute uses Apple's Screen Time framework. While an app is blocked, it can't be opened, and its notifications stop arriving. Nothing on your lock screen pulling you back in. Websites in Safari can be blocked by domain, too.

LOCKOUT (MUTE PRO)
Turn on Lockout, and a rule or session can't be switched off, edited, or deleted until it ends. Not from inside the app, not by deleting Mute, not by changing the clock. For the moment you genuinely need out, there's one emergency pass a week.

TIME TAKEN BACK, AND YOUR STREAK
When a session ends, Mute shows the time you took back. Keep your rules running day after day and your streak grows; Mute lets you know at milestones like 3, 7, and 30 days. Home also shows how much time went to which apps today.

THE TERRARIUM
A terrarium is a small garden sealed in glass: moss, a few tiny plants, a world you can hold in one hand. Your home screen in Mute holds one. As you take back time and your streak reaches milestones, you earn new terrariums and choose which one to display. No pep talks. A quiet, growing scene.

YOUR USAGE STAYS ON YOUR PHONE
Mute never sends records of which apps you use, when, or for how long to our servers. The apps you block are stored as tokens issued by Apple, and we can't turn them back into app names. No account, no email address. Delete everything from Settings whenever you like.

IF THIS SOUNDS LIKE YOU
- An hour of scrolling before bed you didn't plan
- Opening social media between tasks without deciding to
- Losing your focus every time a notification lands
- Setting a Screen Time limit, then tapping "Ignore Limit"

FREE AND MUTE PRO
Free includes two rules and the focus timer without limits. Pro removes the rule limit and unlocks Lockout.

GOOD TO KNOW
- Requires iOS 26.5 or later and Screen Time access.
- Mute Pro is an auto-renewing subscription (annual or weekly). Prices are shown in the app. Payment is charged to your Apple ID when you confirm the purchase, and the subscription renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage it in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.
