PeerPause vs Friends67

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 • Requests and answers right in iMessage • 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.

Friends67 is a screen time app where your friends approve your extra time. When your daily limit is up, your apps lock. Want more time? Send your friends a selfie and a reason. You've probably tried screen time limits or an app blocker before. The problem is that they're too easy to override, and no one notices when you tap "Ignore Limit" for the 123rd time. So social media wins by default. Friends67 changes that. One friend is enough to change your screen time. HOW IT WORKS Choose the apps you want to limit. Set a daily limit for each one. Invite your friends. When your time is up, your apps lock. Want more time? Send a selfie to your friends. SOFT MODE A selfie is all it takes to get more time. Your friends still see every time you ask. HARDCORE MODE Every request goes to your friends, and one of them has to approve it. No auto-approve. Raising a limit, removing an app or turning hardcore mode off needs a friend's approval too. No switching it off in a weak moment. NO FRIENDS ON FRIENDS67 YET? Start anyway. In soft mode your requests go through on their own. In hardcore mode, send your request as a link and anyone can approve it, no app needed. WHAT YOUR FRIENDS SEE Your selfie, the app, how much time you want and why. Never your screen time stats, and never what you do inside your apps. DAILY LIMITS Set daily limits for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, X, Snapchat, games or any other app. Every app has its own limit. Limits reset every day. DOWNTIME Need time to study? Work? Sleep? Create Downtime and keep distracting apps locked at set times. SESSIONS Block apps for the next few hours. Start a session with your friends, your partner or your study group and see who is still locked in. EMERGENCY TOKENS Your friends aren't around and you really need an app? An Emergency Token unlocks it right away. You only get a few each month, so save them for real emergencies. YOUR PROGRESS See your screen time next to what it was before Friends67, app by app, and share your progress with your friends. USE IT FOR Studying for finals without your phone.
