About

Race Spoilers

Features
Read full description

Race Spoilers locks your spoiler-prone apps - and silences their notifications - from the moment an F1 session starts until you tell it you've watched it. Can't watch live? The result usually finds you first: a push notification, the group chat, a headline in a feed. Race Spoilers makes your phone safe until you've seen it for yourself. HOW IT WORKS • Set up once in 60 seconds: pick the apps that leak results (X, YouTube, Reddit, news, group chats - anything) and choose which sessions matter to you. • The app knows the entire F1 calendar and keeps it current automatically. No upkeep, ever. • At the exact start of each session you've enabled, your chosen apps lock and their notifications go silent. • Open a blocked app and you'll see what's being protected - "Qualifying - Monaco Grand Prix" - with one green button: "I've watched it." • Tap it when you've actually watched, and everything unlocks instantly. Behind on both quali and the race? It walks you through them one at a time. • Watched is forever - a session you've marked watched never blocks again. FEATURES • Blocks at lights-out even if your phone was off or the app hasn't been opened in weeks • Blocks never expire on their own - no spoiler risk from "we gave up after 3 days" • Qualifying, Sprint and Race on by default; Practice opt-in • Sprint weekends detected automatically • Siri & Shortcuts: "I watched the race" hands-free, plus building blocks for your own automations • Optional F1 Mode Focus assist to silence spoiler texts from specific people • Emergency unblock and full manual control PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything runs on your device. No account, no server, no analytics. Built on Apple's Screen Time framework, the app cannot even see which apps you picked - it only receives anonymous tokens. The only network request is downloading the public F1 calendar. PRICING Your first race weekend is free: full access until the end of the next Grand Prix weekend after you install, however far away that is. After that, blocking requires Race Spoilers Annual, an auto-renewing yearly subscription ($19.99/year in the US; varies by region). Cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://racespoilers.katz.tools/privacy Race Spoilers is an independent app and is not affiliated with Formula 1 or any of its group companies.
