## What is Sway?

Take back your attention with a focus system built around your real life.

Sway combines a personal AI focus plan, app blocking, screen time insights, routines, and sleep protection in one place.

Most focus apps give everyone the same timer or force a rigid schedule. Sway turns your goals into realistic focus blocks, helps you protect them from distractions, and adjusts the plan as you make progress.

YOUR PERSONAL AI FOCUS PLAN

Tell Sway what you want to improve and how your day usually works.

Sway creates a practical focus plan with:

• focus blocks that fit your schedule
• routines you can repeat
• protected time for important work
• realistic next steps
• adjustments based on your progress

The goal is not to build the most demanding plan. It is to build one you can actually follow.

BLOCK DISTRACTING APPS

Choose the apps that pull your attention away and limit them during focus sessions, routines, and protected time.

Use Sway to protect:

• deep work
• study sessions
• morning routines
• creative work
• personal projects
• important time away from your phone

FOCUS SESSIONS THAT FIT YOUR DAY

Start with short focus sessions or use Pomodoro-style blocks when you need structure.

Create different sessions for work, study, planning, reading, and screen-free resets.

TURN PLANS INTO ROUTINES

Schedule focus blocks throughout your day and build routines around the times that work best for you.

Your plan can include morning, afternoon, and evening focus windows without forcing the same schedule every day.

SEE WHAT STEALS YOUR TIME

Understand how your attention changes over time.

Sway helps you review:

• your most-used apps
• screen time trends
• distraction patterns
• completed focus sessions
• routine progress
• planned focus versus actual progress

Use these insights to understand what pulls you away and what helps you stay consistent.

A PLAN THAT ADAPTS

As you complete sessions and routines, Sway can adjust timing, duration, and next steps.

Your plan evolves with your progress instead of staying fixed forever.

SLEEP MODE

Set a sleep window and limit distracting apps at night.

Protect your evenings, reduce late-night scrolling, and create a calmer transition into sleep.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Raw Screen Time data, specific app names, app categories, blocked-app identifiers, and personal calendar details stay on your device and are never sent to AI.

With your consent, AI features may use the goals and preferences you provide, plus privacy-safe aggregated focus and routine signals, to create plans and suggestions.

You can disable AI cloud processing and optional cloud backup in Settings.

USE SWAY TO

• reduce screen time
• block distracting apps
• build better focus habits
• plan work and study sessions
• protect deep work
• create daily routines
• understand distraction patterns
• reduce nighttime distractions
