LockPact vs Stop Me

Your partner holds the key. LockPact is a free iPhone app for mutual screen time accountability: you and a friend, partner, or roommate each lock apps on your own phone, and only the other person can approve an unlock. No account needed to start. HOW IT WORKS Pair with a friend, partner, or roommate using a 6-digit code Each of you selects which apps to lock on your own device When you need access, send an unlock request — your partner approves or declines That's it. No subscriptions, no surveillance, no complicated setup. WHY IT WORKS Willpower runs out. Accountability doesn't. Every solo app blocker eventually fails — because you're the one who can turn it off. LockPact is different: your locked apps need your partner's approval to open. That one moment of friction changes everything. And yes — bypass is still possible. Apple makes bulletproof locking impossible on iOS. We're honest about that. But when you bypass LockPact, your partner gets notified. Bypassing isn't silent anymore. It's embarrassing. That's the point. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Mutual — you each hold the key to the other's lock • Honest — no false promises about "bulletproof" blocking • Actually free — core accountability features cost nothing, forever • Private — your screen time data never leaves your device Most app blockers are you vs. yourself. LockPact makes screen time a pact between two people. WHAT'S FREE Everything that matters for accountability: • Pair with a partner via 6-digit invite code • Select apps to lock on your own device • Send and receive unlock requests • Get notified when your partner bypasses • Solo lock timer (for solo practice before pairing) • Schedules — set a recurring lock window once and it locks and unlocks on its own No subscription. No paywall on core features. A short ad plays before an unlock request is sent — that friction is the whole product. PRIVACY Your screen time data never leaves your device. LockPact only syncs lock status and unlock requests — never which apps you use, when you use them, or how long. Built for adults who want to spend less time on their phones — together.

You open an App to check one notification. Twenty minutes later, you're still scrolling. Stop Me changes what happens before an app opens. For every app you choose, Stop Me becomes the entry point. Before you enter, answer two simple questions: Why are you opening this app? How long do you need? Choose your purpose, choose your session, and then use the app normally. When your session ends, Stop Me becomes the entry point again—so the next time you open that app, you make the decision again. Stop Me isn't about keeping useful apps away from you. It's about stopping mindless entry, doomscrolling, and those sessions that begin with one purpose and turn into wasted time. HOW IT WORKS • Choose the apps you want Stop Me in front of • Create the reasons you normally open them • Choose your purpose before entering • Set how long you need • Use the app normally during your session • Decide again the next time you enter Use Stop Me with social media, video, shopping, news, or any app you tend to open without thinking. Your apps are useful. Your attention is valuable. Know why you're going in. Privacy Policy: https://khueonstudios.com/products/stop-me/privacy Terms: https://khueonstudios.com/products/stop-me/terms
