Regrind vs FocusLockAI

Your focus pays for your screen time. Regrind keeps the apps you choose locked until you've earned the time. Focus sessions pay Credits into your balance. Withdraw them to unlock your apps, and they lock again when the time runs out. It isn't a timer that only blocks apps while you work. When people set up Regrind, more than 6 in 10 say they spend 4+ hours a day on their phone, 8 in 10 say they scroll too much, and nearly 2 in 3 have already tried screen time limits. Limits are easy to dismiss. In Regrind, time on blocked apps must be paid for in Credits. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose which apps and websites Regrind locks. They stay locked, no schedule needed. 2. Start a focus session. Every minute you complete earns Credits for your balance. 3. Withdraw Credits from your balance to unlock your apps for a fixed time.

Friends and leaderboards need you to sign in; the Privacy Policy explains what that shares.

FocusLock helps you stay in flow by making distraction inconvenient—not by locking you out of your life. Start Work Mode to shield the apps and categories you choose with Apple Screen Time. When you need a break, name why you’re unlocking and confirm with Face ID—or tap a registered NFC focus tag. Access is time-boxed (5, 10, or 20 minutes). Shields return automatically when time is up, even if FocusLock isn’t open. Everything stays on your iPhone. No account. No ads. No cloud sync of your focus history. Features • Work Mode with Screen Time shields you control • Intentional unlock: reason + Face ID • Optional NFC focus tag unlock • Temporary access that expires on its own • Today focus time, streak, and unlock history • Erase all local FocusLock data anytime in Setup FocusLock is intentional friction for adults who want fewer mindless opens—not parental control or unbreakable lockdown. You can always end Work Mode or revoke Screen Time in iOS Settings.
