About

Solve mini 3 word crosswords to unlock distracting apps. The words are curated to be fun, smart and challenging. Enough to make you pause. The words are both challenging and rewarding. You'll either learn something new or dig a word out from your beautiful brain, give it a chance, that's the point. Get comfortable just thinking instead of falling down an inevitable brain rot doomscrolling spiral of regret and one way ticket to digital dementia in a few years time. Solve some words and be the smartest, most articulate and sharpest person in the room which may just lead to you falling in love or finding the job of your dreams as you comfortably maintain a highly admirable coherent conversation thanks to your wonderfully protected brain. Each puzzle pulls from five categories: History, Geography, Science, Literature and People. You can cheat with hints if you just want to get words out the way. OR aim for clean sweeps with zero hints. The greener your word bank the healthier your brain. Designed to hijack your impulsive phone pick ups and turn them into a moment of thought or micro lesson. Complete the puzzle, sit with the clues and once you solve it you can choose to open your distracting apps, complete enough puzzle, or put the phone down again. Your choice! Each puzzle earns you a special "ONE TO LEARN". Not a common word. Something genuinely interesting. Something worth sharing. APRICITY. KINTSUGI. PETRICHOR. Words that make you stop and think. Over time you build a quiet collection of everything you've solved and learned. It grows with you. Word Lock is for people who don't want to delete Instagram etc. They just want their brain back first. Fix Brain Rot & Quit Doom Scrolling. Take control of screen time and learn words. What more could you want? You'll see real benefits in time. Made by Leo J Barnett & Reeltime Apps. **** Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
