Do real life before you scroll. Tired of losing 4+ hours every day to doomscrolling? Willpower alone is no match for social media algorithms. Luma flips the script: screen time is no longer a default—it’s a reward you earn through real-life action. Protect your focus on a schedule With Scheduled Blocks in Luma Plus, choose the apps, days, and start and end times for your focus routine. Create a daily plan, repeat it on selected weekdays, or choose a specific date. Luma automatically blocks your selected apps during that window. Make separate plans for study, work, or winding down. Edit the hours, pause a plan when you need to, and optionally receive notifications when a scheduled block starts and ends. Requires Screen Time access. How Luma works: 1. Choose Distracting Apps: Pick the social, video, and gaming apps you want to protect. 2. Complete Real-Life Quests: Do push-ups, stretch, read, study, or finish a focus session. 3. Earn Screen Time Credits: Your camera or timer verifies your effort and awards time credits. 4. Unlock & Enjoy: Spend your earned minutes guilt-free. When time runs out, Luma locks them automatically. What makes Luma different: • Camera and Pose Tracking: Real-time tracking counts your push-ups and guides your stretching sessions. No cheating—earn your screen time through real movement! • Interactive Daily Quests: Express gratitude in a 3-point journal, take a 3-minute rhythm dance break, or take a photo touching grass outside. • Focus Timer & Pomodoro: Need deep work or study time? Start a focus block and stack minutes for later. • 1-Minute Unlock Warning: Never get cut off mid-scroll without notice. • Streak Freeze & Star Quests: Build daily momentum without fear of losing your streak on busy days.
