Your phone finally fights back. Put your phone face down and focus. Pick it up before you're done, and Slapback slaps you back to work — a vibration, a sound, and a roast that knows your name. Your distracting apps stay locked until your daily tasks are actually done. No camera. No account. No spying. Just motion, consequences, and a hand with zero patience. HOW IT WORKS 1. Name what you'll finish today — speak it or type it. 2. Put your phone face down and start a 25, 45 or 60-minute session. 3. Pick it up early? SLAP. Finish your tasks to unlock your apps the honest way. REAL BLOCKING, NOT JUST A TIMER Slapback uses Apple Screen Time to block the exact apps AND their websites you choose — Instagram and instagram.com, TikTok and tiktok.com. No loopholes. THREE WAYS TO GET SLAPPED • Gentle — a soft nudge and an encouraging word. • Savage — full slap, screen shake, and a written roast. • Slap + Roast — a real voice calls you out by name. It only gets meaner the more you try. WATCH YOUR TIME COME BACK See the hours you reclaim stack up. A before/after of your real screen time, a focus trend, streaks, and a 12-week chain you won't want to break. PRIVATE BY DESIGN There's no sign-up and no server. Everything stays on your iPhone. Stop scrolling. Start finishing. — Slapback is free to try for 3 days, then €4.99/week or €29.99/year. Cancel anytime in Settings.
