About

Build

Build turns focus time into something real. Pick what you want to build, choose the apps you want blocked, and start a session — Build uses Apple's Screen Time to keep you off them until you're done. Every completed session earns you something for your world: a bench, a garden arch, a gazebo. Keep going and your island grows with you. Miss a day and your streak resets, so there's a reason to come back tomorrow. Add friends to see their islands, compare stats, and start a collaborative build together — you both stay off your phones, you both earn the reward. What Build does: • Block chosen apps and categories during a focus session, enforced by Apple's Screen Time • Earn buildings and grow your own island with every completed session • Track your streak and lifetime focus time • Add friends, see their worlds, and start collaborative sessions together • No ads, no third-party trackers, nothing sold — see our Privacy Policy for specifics
