SoulTie vs UNLOOP

SoulTie, Feel understood again. Arguments don’t usually start because two people don’t care. They start because two people are hurting and don’t know how to say it. SoulTie is a relationship communication companion designed to help couples slow down, understand each other, and reconnect, especially during difficult moments. Instead of letting conversations spiral into frustration, SoulTie helps you express what you really mean and understand what your partner is actually feeling. You’re not trying to win an argument. You’re trying to keep the relationship. What SoulTie helps you do: Argument Assist When a disagreement happens, SoulTie acts as a calm mediator between both partners. Our guided conversation assistant helps you phrase your thoughts in a way your partner can receive, and helps you understand their perspective without escalation. It turns reactions into communication. Mood Sharing: Not every feeling needs a full conversation. Throughout the day you can share your emotional state privately and safely. Your partner can understand your mood before speaking, helping you both avoid misunderstandings and bad timing.

SoulTie gently reminds you to acknowledge your partner. Not grand gestures. Just consistent care. Because most relationships don’t fail from one big problem. They fade from many small silences.

Your phone isn't the problem. The loop is. You open an app for one thing and surface forty minutes later. Unloop puts a wall in that loop — a real one, built on Apple's Screen Time — and makes getting past it cost exactly enough to make you stop and think. BLOCK WHAT EATS YOUR DAY • Pick the apps, categories and websites that pull you in. • Block them on a schedule — evenings, mornings, work hours — or all the time. • Set a daily usage limit: when an app has had its minutes, the shield comes up for the rest of the day. • Need a clean hour right now? Block Now starts a timed block in one tap, with a countdown on your Lock Screen. UNLOCKING COSTS SOMETHING Most blockers have an off switch one tap away. Unloop doesn't. • Choose how firm each rule is: Soft asks once, Firm makes you hold, Strict makes you earn it. • Earn a few minutes, not an off switch: unlock for 5, 10 or 15 minutes, and the shield comes back on its own. • Every unlock today costs double the one before, and each rule has a daily limit. "Just once more" gets expensive fast. UNLOCK RITUALS Strict rules ask for a ritual before they open: • Hold — keep your thumb down, no shortcuts. • Transcribe — retype a phrase exactly. One typo and you start over. • Breathe — a minute of paced breathing, then decide again. • Walk — steps buy minutes. 20 steps for every minute you want. • Intention — say why you're opening it, then look at the answer. • Wait — a minute of nothing. Most urges don't last that long. EVERY "GO BACK" COUNTS The shield keeps score. "You've backed off 3 times today. Make it 4." Walking away from an unlock counts as a win and earns stamps — because resisting is the point, not a failure. SEE THE PATTERN • Time you took back, estimated screen time, streaks and your resistance rate over the last two weeks. • Why you unlock, week over week — "bored" looks different on a chart. • How your mood tracks your focused days. • What the scrolling costs you in a year, in hours you could spend on something else. • A weekly receipt of your week, ready to share. REPLACE THE SCROLL Log what you did instead — walked, read, cooked, called someone — and rate the day with one tap in the evening. It all stays in a journal on your phone. ALWAYS WITHIN REACH • Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets for your status and streak. • A Live Activity while a block runs. • Siri and Shortcuts: "Block for a while." • Notifications only about things you set up — a limit reached, a block ending, a strict rule about to start. No streak nagging. No "we miss you."
