PeerPause vs demora

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.

most screen-time apps work with a password that either you or someone else knows. both come with problems: one is easily overridden, the other makes limits practically unmodifiable—which means trips, emergencies or any special occasion is blocked behind a password. demora doesn't ask for a password. it works on the principle of long-term thinking. it trusts your past self over your current self. plan for the future—the present locked by the past. but demora knows plans change—emergencies happen, so it has optional overrides (off by default, delay-gated) that can skip the delay set by the user. have a friend approve changes or do a couple of math problems—whatever works for you. you can always change your rules. just never in the moment. what - daily time limits per app or group. - schedules — daily, by weekday, or monthly. - one-off planned windows for special events. block or allow more — your choice. - optional overrides: math problems, a password, or a trusted person who approves your request by email or from their own demora. all off by default; all require waiting to turn on. - option to disable uninstalling apps. - free: no fees, subscriptions, or data collection. won't - no accounts, no ads, no analytics. - your app choices and usage never leave your device — apple's screen time framework keeps them invisible even to us. - only the optional trusted-contact requests you choose to send ever touch a server — and those approval codes are hashed and expire in minutes. - no fees and no subscriptions. demora is free. how if demora is free, how does it make money? it doesn't. demora is a passion project — we made something we wished existed and made it free for everyone. it was never meant to be a source of income. demora won't give you discipline. it just makes sure the version of you who set the rules is stronger than the impulse-driven you.
