## What is Veil?

Veil drops a real, literal blur over your screen the moment you start a focus block, and it only lifts smoothly, continuously, as your timer counts down to zero.

Name the one thing you are avoiding (Instagram, email, whatever it is), set a duration, and start. If you cannot resist and tap I Gave In, the veil slams back down instantly and the incomplete session is logged honestly, no fudging your own record.

No account, no screen-time permissions, no complicated setup. Just a wall of fog between you and your favorite distraction until the work is done.

Veil Pro unlocks unlimited saved focus blocks and adjustable veil intensity.
