We pick up our phones every 10 minutes and tap the screen around 2,600 times a day. Time Rich is an app built to help you seriously break free from phone addiction. To unlock a block, you have to retype a powerful quote about the value of time, word for word, and write a short reflection. It's a little annoying, on purpose. ■ Features of Time Rich 1. Simple and Easy to Use Choose the apps and websites you want to block once, and those settings are shared across the whole app. No need to reselect them for every block. - Quick Block: start a block with one tap right after launching the app. - Time Limit: pick a duration and save. - Scheduled Block: choose "Every Day" or specific days of the week, plus the time. That's it. The core features are intentionally minimal, with no complicated options. 2. Unlocking Takes Effort. Core Features Are Free. To help you resist the urge (and the dopamine hit) of picking up your phone, unlocking a block always requires retyping a quote and writing a short reflection. It's intentionally a bit of a hassle. Many other apps charge for their basic functions. Time Rich offers Quick Block, Scheduled Block, and Time Limit completely free. 3. No Distracting Features The only push notification you'll receive is a heads-up 15 minutes before your Time Limit ends, so you're not caught off guard when the block kicks in. 4. No Sign-Up Required Start using the app right after installing. No registration or login needed. 5. Premium Plan Premium is $2.99 per month and includes: - No ads - Temporarily hide the unblock button - Review the reflection notes you wrote when unlocking past blocks - Lock your Time Limit / Schedule settings for a set period - Get notified when a block is lifted - Choose from 5+ theme colors - More quotes: from 10 to over 30 - Mochi-kun, the app's mascot, puts on a stoic face Privacy Policy and Terms of Use for the subscription: https://toki-mochi.com/ja/articles/policy/ https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
