About PawsMe PawsMe is the gentle way to spend less time in the apps that pull you in. Instead of a hard block that you'll just disable by Friday, PawsMe adds a warm pause: when you open a protected app, it asks you one small question first. Answer it and you get a short, chosen window. Or take the hint from Paws and walk away, either way, you moved on purpose. No shame. No streak guilt. Just a kinder relationship with your phone, guarded by a very small puppy. WHY PAWSME • A pause, not a wall; a single question breaks the autopilot scroll. • Real iOS shielding via Apple Screen Time & Family Controls. • You choose the apps, the challenge difficulty, and the unlock length. • Emergency bypasses, no questions asked, for the days you need them. • On-device stats, streaks, and a shareable weekly recap. • Private by design: no account, no cloud, nothing collected. Meet Paws. Take a breath. Then decide. What makes it work A pause, not a block Try to open a protected app and PawsMe steps in with one small question. Answer it for a short access window, or walk away — your call, every time. Kind by design No shame, no lectures, no broken-streak guilt. Paws the puppy cheers you on and never scolds you. Tuned to you Choose which apps to protect, an Easy / Balanced / Spicy challenge, and 1–30 minute unlock windows. Emergency bypasses for the days you need them.
