Phone-free time, protected. Turning locks distracting apps all day, and in Deep Focus Mode (subscription) the Deep Focus Timer keeps them shut until it ends. -- “Just 10 more minutes...

Take back the hours you lose to scrolling — use only the apps you truly need, when you need them.” -- ■ A screen time management app with 400K+ downloads in 160+ countries ■ Highly recommended for students, exam takers, job seekers, freelancers, and anyone seeking productivity ■ Based on Turning user data, average daily screen time went from 6 hours before Turning to 2 hours 30 minutes after (individual results vary) ■ Research on Turning’s effectiveness, based on behavioral science data, is in progress with Yonsei University’s Applied Statistics Lab — ▶ Who is Turning for? - Those who can't stop watching Shorts or Reels before bed - Those who lose entire days to impulsive smartphone use - Those preparing for exams, competitions, or major events - Those experiencing poor focus or recurring digital fatigue - Those who want to be with family and friends instead of their phone - Those who’ve tried everything to break phone addiction — ▶ Turning helps you use apps intentionally, not habitually. ▶ Now featuring a reliable 24-hour lock system to control app usage with consistency. (1) Simply register your apps once. Our intuitive, straightforward system locks distractions for 24 hours. Through the “Apps” tab, register your Disturbing Apps and Useful Apps.

(2) Need stronger control? Subscribe to Deep Focus Mode. The Deep Focus Timer instantly locks all your Disturbing Apps until it ends — there's no way back in. Deep Focus Mode also blocks website URLs, sets per-app and total daily limits, closes the usual workarounds, asks for a few deep breaths before you reopen an app, adds more mission types, gives you an AI report on your usage, tracks phone use during sleep hours, and removes all ads. In Deep Focus Mode, you can register up to 49 apps. If the basic mode felt too lenient, upgrade for full control and digital discipline. (3) Meet your digital buddy Turny on the home screen.
