About

Rotshield

Your screen time isn't a time problem. It's a mood problem. You don't miss the hour. You miss the version of you that existed before it — the one who wasn't foggy, flat, and vaguely annoyed at nothing in particular. That isn't a willpower failure. Those apps are built by people who are very good at their job, and you are not going to out-argue them at 11pm. So don't. Decide now, while you're calm, and let the decision hold later. HOW IT WORKS You pick the apps. Rotshield closes them with the system shield iOS uses for Screen Time — not a reminder you can swipe away. While a rule is on, the app does not open. • Schedule — closed on the days and hours you set • All day — closed until you turn the rule off • Daily limit — closed after a set number of minutes, until midnight THE 15 MINUTES ARE NOT FREE Want back in? Open Rotshield and tap Unlock. You get a choice, not a lecture. Breathe. Two slow rounds — four seconds in, two held, four out. Nothing to read, nothing to prove. Or answer one question: why are you opening this? Bored. Anxious. Avoiding. Habit. Need info. Add a note, mark how you feel, done. Nothing is graded and no answer is wrong — naming it is the whole exercise. Then Rotshield asks once more, and this is the part that matters. Turning back is the big button. Taking the fifteen minutes is the small one. No guilt trip either way. Change your mind and ten minutes come off today's count, up to three times a day. Other apps punish you for wanting in. This one pays you for walking away. You can quit either challenge at any second and it costs you nothing. The friction is the pause, not the punishment. FOCUS TIMER One session, one set of apps, closed until the clock runs out. Hard mode does not let you stop early. YOUR SCREEN TIME STAYS ON YOUR PHONE No account. Rotshield cannot even tell which apps you picked — iOS hands it opaque tokens and draws the names and icons itself. Your minutes, app names and usage report never leave the device. What does leave: anonymous analytics about how Rotshield itself is used, and your subscription status, so the app keeps working after a renewal. Nothing from Screen Time, ever. SUBSCRIPTION Rotshield runs on a weekly or yearly auto-renewable subscription. There is no free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID when you confirm the purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and your account is charged for the renewal within 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel it any time in your Apple ID settings. Requires iOS 18 and Screen Time permission.
