HeiLock helps you set gentler boundaries around app time. When it is time to stop, pause for a moment, cut down on short, mindless bursts of app use, and use apps with more intention. Key features: β’ Session Limits Set how long an app can be used each time. When the limit is reached, usage is restricted automatically. β’ Cumulative Limits Set a cumulative usage limit for one or more apps. When the set time is reached, usage is restricted automatically. When you select multiple apps, use βCombined Usage Timeβ to choose how time is counted: when enabled, usage time across the selected apps is combined, and the apps share a single cumulative limit; when disabled, usage is accumulated separately for each app. β’ Allowed Time Windows Choose when an app is available. Outside those windows, usage is restricted. β’ Custom Display Content Add your favorite photos or videos. When an app is locked, HeiLock can show the content you selected, making each pause feel a little warmer. β’ Manage Multiple Apps Manage multiple apps at once and set different usage schedules for different apps. β’ Passcode Protection Protect your settings with a passcode to prevent unwanted changes. β’ Local Storage No sign-in, no ads, and all data stays on your device.
