AffirmCount is a free affirmation counter app for iPhone and iPad: you say your affirmation out loud, and voice recognition counts each repetition for you. "I can do this" — how many times do you say it each day? When you repeat affirmations, keeping count pulls your focus away from the words. AffirmCount counts for you. Hands-free, so you can stay with your affirmation. When you can't speak up, tap to count instead. Every count is saved. How it works 1. Write your affirmation and set a daily goal, for example 30 times. 2. Tap the mic and say it out loud. Each time you finish the sentence, the count goes up by one. 3. Reach your goal, see today's total and keep your streak going. Key features • Voice counting — speak your affirmation and it is counted automatically, even when quotes, numbers or currency are written differently. • Tap counting — count by tapping when you are somewhere you can't speak. • Affirmation Check (new) — on-device AI checks whether your Korean or English affirmation is in the first person, positive and in the present tense, and suggests a better version (iOS 26+, Apple Intelligence devices). • Goals, statistics and streaks — set a daily goal for each affirmation and track your progress over days. • Daily reminder — a notification at the time you choose. • 45 languages — the app follows your phone's language. • iPad and iPhone Duo — your list and the counter side by side. Made for • People practicing the law of attraction, manifestation and self-affirmation • Anyone who repeats affirmations, mantras or gratitude phrases every day • People building a meditation and mindfulness habit Privacy No account is needed and your affirmations stay on your device.

Workout Lock blocks distracting apps while you train, and helps you stay on pace. Your time at the gym stays focused on training, and your workouts finish on time. TRACK WORKOUTS HOW YOU LIKE ------------------------------------ Workout Lock supports multiple ways of tracking your workout sessions: 1. Timed (simplest) You define a plain time block for your workout. Distracting apps stay blocked until your workout time is up. 2. Checklist (most flexible) You list the exercises or tasks you have to complete for a day's workout and check them while you go through them. Apps stay blocked until the checklist is finished. 3. Guided (most professional) You define the exact exercises, sets, reps and rest times for your training session. Workout Lock guides you through the session, keeps track of your progress and helps you stay on pace with alerts, timers and progress indicators. BLOCK THE APPS GRAB YOUR ATTENTION ------------------------------------------- Choose the distracting apps and categories you tend to open at the gym. During your workout, Workout Lock keeps them blocked so checking your phone does not turn into another scrolling session. Keep your phone with you for the things you actually need at the gym, while keeping social media and other distractions out of the way. STAY ON PACE --------------- Guided workouts help you see whether you are ahead of or behind your target pace. Workout Lock tracks your progress through exercises, sets and rests, so you can notice when a workout is starting to drift before it runs long. BUILT WITH PRIVACY IN MIND ------------------------------ Workout Lock uses Apple’s Screen Time technology to block the apps and categories you choose during your workouts. This means Workout Lock doesn't see the actual apps you have installed and select to block, only Apple does. More about privacy at https://workout-lock.public-apps.com/privacy.
