ReadLock vs LockMax

The most successful people in the world read more than everyone else. Yet most of us can't finish a single book, not because we lack time, but because social media, doom-scrolling, and endless notifications keep pulling us away. ReadLock helps you take back your attention. Set a reading session, choose the apps and website categories that distract you most, and ReadLock locks them using Screen Time so your phone stops competing with your book. When your session ends, update your reading progress or notes, and ReadLock's AI scores your comprehension before your apps unlock. No skimming. No faking it. Just real reading. "Just one more scroll" becomes "just one more page." It works with any book format: paperback, hardcover, e-book, or PDF. No special reader required. Key Features * Distraction Locking (Screen Time): Lock selected apps and distracting website categories during your reading sessions. When a locked app is opened, the ReadLock shield screen appears. * AI Comprehension Scoring: After each session, write a short note on what you read. ReadLock's AI compares your notes against your pages and scores your focus and understanding before your apps unlock. You can't fake your way through. * AI Summary Suggestions: Not sure how to capture what you read? ReadLock's AI rewrites your notes into a cleaner, sharper summary — turning scattered thoughts into real understanding. * Book Scanning & Search: Add any book instantly by scanning the cover or searching the title. Your reading journey starts in seconds. * Works with Any Book Format: Track progress and take chapter notes for both physical and digital books. No special reader required. * Flexible Reading Sessions: Set reading windows for morning, afternoon, or evening and build a consistent daily routine. * Progress Tracking: Update pages read, mark chapters as completed, and watch your reading habit grow day by day. * Notes & Key Takeaways: Capture chapter notes and important lessons as you read. AI sharpens them after every session. * Book Library: Add books by scan or search, organize by category, and pick up right where you left off. * Habit Building: Streaks, session history, and gentle reminders to make reading stick as a long-term habit.

Tap Locked Apps → Add, grant Screen Time permission, and select the apps, categories, or websites you want to block. 4. Tap Set Daily Reading Target and pick your reading window. 5. When your session is active, opening a locked app shows the ReadLock shield screen. 6.

Dopamine should cost effort. Your phone gives it away for free. That's why you can't stop scrolling, even when you want to. EarnScreen makes cheap dopamine expensive. Block the apps stealing your time — and earn minutes back through real effort. Push-ups. Squats. Steps. Math challenges. The price is set. No bargaining with yourself. SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED FOR FULL ACCESS EarnScreen is free to download. Core app blocking, exercise tracking, AI rep counting, streaks, and unlimited unlocks require an active auto-renewable subscription or lifetime purchase (pricing shown in the app before you subscribe). A free trial may be available for eligible plans. WHY IT WORKS WHEN NOTHING ELSE DID Native Screen Time fails because ignoring it is free. One tap and you're back. Willpower runs out. App blockers feel like punishment. This is different. You don't fight your phone. You pay for it — with your body or your mind. Every minute of scrolling has a cost. Every cost makes you stronger. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose the apps you want to control. 2. When you try to open them, they're locked (Premium). 3. Earn coins through effort: push-ups, squats, steps, or math problems (Premium features as marked in the app). 4. Spend coins to unlock screen time. Or close the app and move on with your day. The exchange rates are fixed. You can't lower the price. You can't trick the system. That's the point. WHAT YOU GET (with an active Premium subscription) — Less screen time. Many users aim to cut 2–3 hours per day. — Stronger body. Push-ups, squats, and steps tracked with AI rep counting (Premium). — Sharper mind. Math challenges before you scroll (Premium). — A new relationship with your phone. You own it. It doesn't own you. Results vary. Features above require a separate in-app purchase; see the paywall for current plans, duration, and price. WHO THIS IS FOR This is a discipline tool, not a wellness app. It's built for people who are tired of losing hours to their phone and ready to do something about it. If you want gentle reminders and motivational quotes, this isn't for you. If you want friction that actually works, you're in the right place. WHAT USERS SAY "Lost 4kg in 2 months. The app made me train without me noticing." "I used to fight my phone. Now I just pay it with squats. It's not even hard." "Tried every screen time blocker. This is the first one that actually works because you can't cheat it." DOPAMINE THROUGH EFFORT Cheap dopamine made you weak. Earned dopamine makes you strong.
