## What is VocabLock?

Replace doomscrolling with smart language learning.
VocabLock blocks your most distracting apps. Want them back? Learn vocabulary first.

Here's what happens:

You try to open a blocked app.
Review vocabulary flashcards → Unlocked for X minutes.
Repeat daily → You're learning a language without "finding time."

Why this works:

- Traditional language apps require a lot of willpower
- VocabLock uses your phone habits as your motivation

- The forgetting curve kills your progress
- Spaced repetition flashcards help you with long term memory

What's Included:
• App blocking powered by iOS Screen Time
• 1000+ most relevant vocabulary words with native audio and images (more coming soon)
• Spaced repetition algorithm for long-term retention
• Progress tracking with streaks and levels
• Multiple study modes (flashcards, matching games, quizzes)
• Multi-language support (Spanish, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Russian)
• iCloud sync across all your devices

• Subscription required (free trial available)
