About
Vault is an app that pairs with a NFC focus card: a physical way to lock distracting apps when you need real focus.
Software blockers are easy to ignore because the escape button lives on the same phone. Vault moves that choice into the real world. Start a session with a tap, put the card somewhere intentional, and your most distracting apps and websites stay locked until you tap the card again or use a limited emergency exit.
What you can do with Vault:
- Pair any NFC card in about a minute
- Choose the apps, categories, and websites you want to lock
- Create profiles for Deep Work, Study, Sleep, Weekends, or your own routines
- Schedule sessions so blocking starts automatically
- Use strict mode when you do not want an easy out
- Track focus hours, streaks, sessions, and time reclaimed
Vault is built for people who have already tried timers, app limits, and willpower. It adds physical friction: a small ritual that makes checking your phone a deliberate choice instead of a reflex.
No subscription. The app is free to use with any of your NFC-enabled devices.
Requirements:
- Requires an NFC tag/card
- Requires an iPhone with NFC support
- Uses iOS Screen Time controls to block selected apps and websites
- Some blocking features require Screen Time permissions
Lock distractions in the vault. Walk away. Get your time back.
