Your phone should be a tool—not a trap. WeFocus helps you block distracting apps and websites, control screen time, and protect deep-focus time with limits that actually hold. Start a focus session, schedule quiet hours, set daily app limits, and choose how firmly you want to commit. Built for the moment willpower runs out. WHY WEFOCUS Most app blockers are easy to ignore when the urge hits. WeFocus lets you choose the right level of friction before you begin—from a gentle reminder to a fully locked session that stays active until it ends. No guilt. No noisy productivity theater. Just calm, clear boundaries you set for yourself. WHAT YOU CAN DO • BLOCK APPS & WEBSITES Choose distracting apps, categories, and websites. Start blocking in seconds. • START FOCUS SESSIONS Pick what to block, choose a duration, and lock in. Live Activities and Dynamic Island keep the countdown visible without pulling you back into the app. • SET DAILY SCREEN TIME LIMITS Give Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, games, or any category a daily budget. When time runs out, WeFocus closes the door and resets the next day. • SCHEDULE QUIET HOURS Protect work, study, bedtime, mornings, or family time with recurring schedules that run automatically. • CHOOSE YOUR COMMITMENT Use the level that fits the moment—from flexible sessions to strict protection, passcode friction, Discipline Mode, and Always Block. • PAUSE BEFORE QUITTING Exit challenges add intentional friction when you try to end early. Reflect, breathe, type, solve a challenge, or wait for the urge to pass. • CONTROL BYPASSES Set a daily bypass budget and see exactly what remains. Discipline Mode can lock that budget for the term you choose. • SEE YOUR PROGRESS Understand screen time, focus hours, streaks, daily goals, and the apps that take the most attention. • STAY FOCUSED EVERYWHERE Use Home Screen widgets, Live Activities, and Dynamic Island to start or follow a session at a glance. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your selected apps, schedules, limits, and usage stay on your device. WeFocus uses Apple’s Screen Time and Family Controls frameworks for system-level blocking. MADE FOR • Students preparing for exams • People with ADHD who need stronger boundaries • Deep work and Pomodoro sessions • Digital detox and dopamine reset • Reducing doomscrolling and social media habits • Better sleep and phone-free family time START FREE Try the real focus tools before subscribing.
