PeerPause vs Haven

Screen time limits only work when you can't quietly undo them. PeerPause fixes that by putting one person you trust between you and the "just five more minutes" button. Set a daily limit for the apps that eat your day. When the time is gone, the app locks. If you genuinely need longer, you send a request to your Time Buddy — a friend, partner, or sibling who taps accept or deny. No secret override, no deleting the limit at 1am. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the app that distracts you most. 2. Set its daily limit. 3. Add a Time Buddy. 4. When you hit the limit, the app locks. 5. Ask for more time, with a note if you want. 6. Your Time Buddy decides. WHAT YOU GET • Blocking for social, video, game, dating, and shopping apps • Daily limits built on Apple's Screen Time • Time extension requests, answered by a real person • Buddy confirmation before a limit is changed or removed • Streaks and insights that show what's actually improving • No instant self-override when you hit the limit WHY A BUDDY BEATS WILLPOWER Every other blocker lets you turn it off. That is the whole problem — the moment you want to break the limit is exactly the moment you are least able to argue with yourself. Handing that one decision to someone else takes about two seconds and changes the outcome. Your Time Buddy is not a parent or a monitor. They see the app name, how much time you asked for, and any note you send. They cannot see your messages, your browsing, your photos, or what you do inside any app. Your Screen Time data stays on your device. BEING SOMEONE'S TIME BUDDY Answering requests for a friend costs nothing — install PeerPause, get added, and tap accept or deny when they ask. A PeerPause Pro subscription is what lets you create and manage your own limits. Pause first. Scroll less. Take your time back.

Haven is a screen time blocker built around one physical pause: stretch to unlock your phone. Choose the apps that pull you in. Haven uses Apple Screen Time to shield them. When you reach to unlock, Haven asks you to stretch first — a short breath-and-body reset, long enough to break the reflex. Most of the time you'll realize you didn't need the phone. When you do, it's still there. Why Haven feels different: Real blocking with Apple Screen Time. Apps, categories, and websites are fully shielded. A body-first pause. Stretch and breath sequences interrupt the loop before every guided unblock, so the pause isn't just a button. Honest rules. Daily unblock caps, emergency unlocks, schedules, and allowed windows — set them once and let Haven enforce them. Rooted weekly history. A calm reflection of your phone rhythm. No streaks, no shame. No account. No email. No sign-in. Your blocking setup stays on-device. Extreme Mode for when you mean it — cold-turkey blocking that even the shield can't override. Seven-day trial and Premium include: More blockers and more control Schedules and allowed windows Custom, zero, or unlimited guided-unblock caps Custom break lengths A richer library of stretch sequences Rooted reports and premium history views Premium app icon and widget extras Extreme Mode for cold-turkey blocking Haven is built for people who want firmer limits without streak pressure, guilt, or a maze of settings. Block first. Stretch. Breathe. Usually you'll realize you didn't need the phone, and when you do, it's there.
