## What is VOW?

Make room for what matters tomorrow.

VOW starts with a simple evening decision: what needs to get done the next day? Write your plan, choose your critical tasks, and select the apps that tend to distract you. When your plan is active and Screen Time protection is enabled, VOW shields those apps until you mark all critical tasks complete.

YOUR DAILY VOW
• Plan today or tomorrow in your own words.
• Separate critical work from optional tasks.
• Review and commit your plan before blocking begins.
• Add, edit, or remove today's tasks when plans change.

SPACE TO FOCUS
• Shield individually selected apps while a plan is active.
• Start a focus timer for a task, pause it, and return when you're ready.
• Review your recorded focus time and completion history.
• Keep an emergency manual unlock available when you need it.

YOUR SUBSCRIPTION ALSO INCLUDES
• Save reusable plans and add them to a draft later.
• Choose weekdays for recurring tasks to appear in new drafts.
• Block whole app categories and selected websites.

Recurring tasks prepare a draft when you open the planner. They never commit a plan or turn on blocking automatically. You stay in control of what you promise to do.

VOW has no separate sign-in and no ads. Plans and task details are stored on your device. Apple Screen Time permission is required for app blocking. Completion is self-reported; recorded timer time is not verification that a task was completed.

VOW requires a subscription to use its planning and protection features. Choose a monthly or annual plan after completing setup. Eligible new subscribers may receive a seven-day trial; Apple shows the actual eligibility, localized price, renewal date, and billing period before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled through Apple Account subscription settings. Restore purchases using the same Apple Account. If membership ends, VOW retains local plans and removes its app restrictions.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.7 — 2026-11-02

More support for finishing what matters before you scroll.

• Take a 10-minute task break. After your first break of the day, a 90-second pause helps you decide before starting another.
• Pause before changing or clearing blocked apps while critical work remains unfinished.
• See your current and personal-best streaks. Rest days stay neutral.
• Set an optional daily app allowance in Settings.
• Find rotating motivational messages on the blocker screen.
• Choose reminders in their own onboarding step, and confirm unusually quick task completions.
• Save optional manual backups to your private iCloud account and restore into an empty installation. Backups are not automatic sync; restoring a subscription restores membership separately.

Your existing plans, optional task times, Quick Reuse, history and widgets remain available.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-10-19

Make your daily vow a habit.

• Add an optional evening reminder to plan tomorrow and a morning reminder to plan today.
• Choose the exact hour and minute in Settings.
• Once you commit a day’s vow, VOW cancels its planning reminders. Drafts and Quick Reuse stay editable until you commit.
• Test notification delivery and manage permission from Settings.

Your one-task flow, Quick Reuse, optional task times, history and widgets remain available. Reminders refresh when you open VOW; iOS notification settings affect delivery.

### 1.0.4 — 2026-10-15

Finish one thing before you scroll.

• Start with one critical task and tailor practical suggestions to your goal.
• See your next unfinished critical task prominently on Today, with a quick Mark Done action and an optional focus timer.
• Use Quick Reuse to bring a recent critical task into an editable draft, including its notes and planned time.

Multiple tasks, optional times, saved plans, completion history, and Home and Lock Screen widgets remain available.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-10-05

Choose an optional planned start time for a task, edit it whenever plans change, or leave tasks untimed.

The Today Home Screen widget now shows up to three unfinished tasks with clear Critical and Optional labels. New Lock Screen widgets show a task summary or your daily progress.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-10-04

Your daily vow, now on your Home Screen.

• Add a small widget to see today's completed tasks and critical-work progress.
• Add a medium widget to see your first unfinished critical task. Tap it to open that task in VOW.
• Keep the order of newly planned tasks consistent between Today and the widget.
• Explore research-backed focus facts during setup, with links to the original studies.
• Go straight from completed setup to subscription options, with retry and restore options if the offer cannot load.

Widget refresh timing is controlled by iOS.
