\DREAM SHEEP has been renamed to LambLock!/ 1,460 hours a year. That’s like working full-time for 9 months—on your phone. How much more of your life will go to scrolling? Ever say “just 5 minutes” on TikTok and end up losing an hour? Ever open X or Insta in the middle of work without even thinking? Ever stare at your phone before bed and then can’t sleep? LambLock is here to cut out that social media overkill, helping you rebuild your life on your own terms. (Research shows social media habits can wreck focus, sleep, mindfulness, and mental health.) We made this app because we’ve felt that struggle ourselves. ◆ What’s LambLock? An app blocker that stops you from doomscrolling—perfect before sleep or when you need laser focus. Tried quitting cold turkey? Digital detoxes? Kept slipping back? We calm that “must scroll” itch with a deep-breath prompt before app access.

Attacks doomscrolling at its core, cutting up to 50% off weekly screen time in beta tests. 3. Target only your problem apps—limit by time, day, or schedule.

Free start—anyone can hop in. ◆ User Raves: “My TikTok checks plunged from 30 times a day to 1!” “Weekly phone use down 50%—shocked!” “Way less SNS time—best digital wellness app!” “Free from social media stress!” ◆ Perfect For: - Anyone cutting screen time - Late-night scrollers with regrets - Focus, sleep, screen time, phone limit apps seekers - Distractibility/ADHD issues - Those wanting phone addiction help, self-control tools - Past social media/dopamine detoxers - Curious about dumb phones or minimalist launchers ◆ Try PRO Free Love it?

「あとで見る」を開いたまま、また1時間。 もちのうは、自分の意志でも解除できないブロックで、スマホから離れる時間をつくるアプリです。 ■ iPhone標準のスクリーンタイムと、どこが違うのか 標準のスクリーンタイムは、上限が来ても「制限を無視」を押せば開けてしまいます。開けられる仕組みは、いちばん開きたい夜には効きません。 もちのうの「がっつりモード」は、決めた時間が終わるまで自分でも解除できません。アプリを消して逃げる抜け道もふさいであります。意志の力を使わずに済むように作ってあります。 ■ できること ・SNS・動画・ゲームをまとめてブロック ・時間になったら自動ではじまるスケジュール ・自分でも解除できない「がっつりモード」 ・使った時間の記録と、1週間前との比較 ・ロック画面ウィジェットから1タップで開始 ・離れていた時間だけ育つキャラクター ■ 使い方 1. 止めたいアプリを選ぶ 2. 時間を決める 3. はじめる あとは、開こうとした瞬間にもちのうが立ちはだかります。 ■ こんな方へ ・気づくと2時間ショート動画を見ている ・勉強や仕事をはじめる前に、必ずSNSを開いてしまう ・寝る前のスマホで睡眠時間が削られている ・スクリーンタイムを設定したのに、自分で解除してしまう ・受験や資格の勉強に集中したい ■ プレミアムについて 複数アプリのブロック・スケジュール・がっつりモードなどの機能には、アプリ内購入が必要です。 ・もちのうプレミアム(1年) ¥4,000 / 年(自動更新) ・もちのうプレミアム(1週間) ¥480 / 週(自動更新) ・買い切り ¥10,000(一度きりのお支払い・自動更新なし) 1年プランは、はじめての方にかぎり3日間無料でお試しいただけます。無料期間の終了24時間前までに解約すれば、料金は発生しません。 お支払いは購入確定時にApple IDへ請求されます。自動更新は、期間終了の24時間前までにオフにしないかぎり継続します。更新の停止・解約は、App Storeのアカウント設定からいつでも行えます。 利用規約: https://mochinou.vercel.app/terms.html プライバシーポリシー: https://mochinou.vercel.app/privacy.html
