Stoiqus

A pause between you and the apps you keep reaching for. Stoiqus stands in front of the apps that pull at you. Before one opens, you meet a Stoic, notice why you reached for it, and decide again. Your attention is yours. Take it back. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose the apps. Pick the ones you open without deciding to. 2. Meet a Stoic first. Tap one and it stays closed. In its place, a quote from Marcus Aurelius, Seneca or Epictetus, and a short reflection on what you are avoiding. 3. Choose again. Walk away and the app stays locked while your streak grows. Or proceed mindfully: a short timed window opens (15 to 45 minutes), then it locks itself again. Proceeding is capped each day, so the pause can never become a rubber stamp. QUIET BY DESIGN No feed. No badges. No confetti. A streak milestone is a sentence, not a party. Black and white, in light and dark. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT There is no account. Your blacklist, reflections, streak and notes stay on your device. Stoiqus uses Apple's Screen Time framework, which never tells us which apps you chose. Pro adds optional iCloud Sync, which keeps your streak and notes in your own iCloud account and never touches a server of ours. FREE - Block one app - Today's ledger of every pull and what you chose - Choose which Stoic speaks first - Light and dark STOIQUS PRO - Block unlimited apps and whole categories - Streak history, 14-day stats and a milestone record - Your own past notes return as quotes, weeks later - Choose your daily limit: 1, 3 or 5 - Optional iCloud Sync across your devices THE SUNDAY LETTER An optional weekly reflection by email, with occasional news about the app. Skip it and nothing changes.
