Your friends find out if you don't sleep on time. Add one or two friends as accountability partners. Apps lock at bedtime. If you break your pact, they get an email the next morning — with the time you stayed up, how many times you tried to open blocked apps, and how many times you picked up your phone during bedtime. That's real motivation. Not another timer with a bypass button. Not willpower at midnight. HOW IT WORKS - Pick your bedtime and the apps that keep you up - Add 1–2 friends as accountability partners - At bedtime, those apps lock with no override and no "Ignore Limit" - Apps unlock automatically at sunrise - If you cheat, your friends get one email the next morning WHAT YOU GET - App blocking with zero bypass options - Phone Down Mode — your phone sounds an alarm if you pick it up during bedtime - Accountability emails to friends if you break your pact - Sunrise-based unlock — no arbitrary fixed timers - Wind-down breathing exercises to ease you off your phone - Sleep streaks to build momentum Stop doomscrolling at 2 AM. Stop waking up exhausted. Stop negotiating with yourself at midnight. Lock your phone tonight.
