RescueTime helps you track time, block distractions, manage goals, and understand your full workday across phone and desktop. Together this gives you a clear view of your habits and the tools to improve them. Understand where your time goes, stay focused when it matters, and build better workdays without extra effort. One subscription works across all your devices, syncing your data to give you a complete picture of your time on mobile and desktop. **Created For iOS** RescueTime for iOS brings powerful, simple focus tools to your phone: • Automatic app tracking: see app activity with productivity ratings and daily and weekly summaries (optional Screen Time permission). • Focus Sessions with optional app blocking: stay on task with time-boxing, optionally grant permission to block distractions in real time. • Project tracking: log time to specific projects and track progress across sessions and timers. • Offline time: add meetings, calls, and other offline activities to complete your day. • Reporting: View and manage your time across all your devices in the app. • Available in English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Portuguese, and Russian. **Focus Sessions** Start a Focus Session when you need uninterrupted time to work. RescueTime blocks distractions, tracks your progress, and delivers a summary when you're done. Use timers for time boxing or to track open-ended tasks. Sessions and timers can be linked to projects, so your focused time always counts toward something meaningful. **Full Workday Perspective** Install RescueTime on your desktop to see the full picture. Your activity, focus sessions, and progress sync seamlessly across devices.

RescueTime tracks your progress automatically and shows how your behavior aligns with your goals. Weekly summaries highlight trends over time, so you can see what's working and what's not. **Permissions** Several optional features require elevated permissions. Reporting: tracking phone app activity requires Screen Time permission, and you can choose to use this feature or not. Focus Sessions: using the optional app blocking part of sessions requires Screen Time permission in order to offer real-time intervention. **Plans** Solo Focus includes automatic tracking with full history, Focus Sessions with real-time app blocking, offline activity logging, goals with daily targets, alerts and automations, advanced filtering, and integrations. Solo+ includes everything in Solo Focus, plus automated project and task tracking with RescueTime Timesheets.

Offline time logging, project tracking, and distraction blocking require a subscription. **For Teams** RescueTime also offers team plans with shared projects, team dashboards, manager insights, and centralized settings. Team plans are only available at rescuetime.com. **Privacy** RescueTime does not record keystrokes, capture screenshots, or read message and website content. You control what is tracked, can pause tracking at any time, and can export or delete your data whenever you choose.

That gut-drop moment at the traffic light — "did I grab my wallet?" PocketCheck ends it. Photograph the things you can't leave without. PocketCheck cuts them out into stickers on your pocket board. Set a boundary around home — as tight as 20 metres — and the moment you step past it, your checklist appears. Tap through it and go. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT • Seconds, not minutes — GPS-confirmed departure alerts the moment iOS senses you moving, while other reminder apps wake up ten minutes too late • Your real stuff — photos become stickers, not another grey text list • Anywhere mode — leave a restaurant, gym, or friend's place after a real stay and PocketCheck checks you again. Smart rules mean brief stops never trigger and alerts never spam • Impossible to miss — Time Sensitive alerts break through Focus modes, with optional loud alarm sound and repeat-until-opened • Private by design — photos processed on-device, no accounts, no tracking, and your route is never stored HOW IT WORKS 1. Snap your stuff — wallet, keys, badge, anything 2. Drop your boundary on the map 3. Walk out the door — your checklist appears Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
