Break the scroll. Build a habit worth keeping. BGrateful turns your screen time into something meaningful. Instead of just blocking distracting apps, BGrateful invites you to pause and practice gratitude before you unlock them. It's not about willpower — it's about replacing a mindless habit with a mindful one. How it works: when you try to open a blocked app, BGrateful gently intercepts that moment. You move through a short guided reflection — breathing, reading, expressing gratitude — and when you finish, the app unlocks. The barrier becomes a ritual. Key features: * Guided reflections: a multi-step experience with breathing, curated readings, gratitude symbols, and a moment to say thanks * Screen Time integration: voluntarily block any apps using Apple's Screen Time technology — you choose what gets blocked and when * Personalized onboarding: a detailed setup flow that tailors the experience to your goals and habits * Progress tracking: a GitHub-style heatmap and calendar show your streaks and consistency at a glance * Custom reflections: write your own reflections alongside the built-in library * Daily reminders: configurable notifications to keep your practice consistent BGrateful is for anyone who has noticed that their phone time does not always reflect their values. If you have tried screen time limits and found them easy to dismiss, this is different. Start your 3-day free trial today. No pressure, no commitment — just a better relationship with your phone, one reflection at a time. Terms of Service: https://www.bgrateful.app/terms
