## What is Zone before you Phone?

Take back control where it matters most. Distracting apps disappear automatically — based on where you are.

Walk into the library, and Instagram is gone. Step into the gym, and TikTok stops mid-scroll. Come home, and work emails fade into the background. No timer to set. No willpower to summon. The right apps go quiet in the right places, every time.

WHY THIS WORKS

Most blockers fight you in the moment — exactly when willpower is weakest. This one doesn't. You make the decision once, calmly, ahead of time. Then the place itself does the rest.

MADE FOR REAL LIFE

— Study spots: keep social media out of your library, lecture hall, or favorite café
— The gym: no scrolling between sets
— Work and home: separate the two with a single line on the map
— Bedroom: turn off the dopamine drip before sleep
— Family time: bring quiet to the rooms where people matter, not screens

HOW IT WORKS

Drop a pin on the map. Choose how wide the area should be. Pick which apps go quiet when you arrive — or when you leave. That's it. The app runs gently in the background and reacts the moment you cross the line.

YOUR DATA STAYS WITH YOU

Your location never leaves your device. Nothing is uploaded. Nothing is tracked. Nothing is shared. Everything runs on Apple's secure on-device geofencing — the same technology behind reminders.

NO ACCOUNT, NO ADS, NO NONSENSE

Open it, set things up, get on with your day. No sign-up. No subscription pop-ups. No advertising. Just a quiet tool that helps you build the habits you want.

Made for people who already know what they want to change. Sometimes the missing piece isn't motivation — it's the right kind of friction in the right place.
