TimeBack

Take your time back. TimeBack helps you cut screen time with real, enforceable blocks โ not just gentle reminders. Built on Apple's Screen Time technology, it stays out of your way until the moment you need willpower most. BLOCK YOUR WAY โข Daily Limits โ give any app a per-day allowance; when it's spent, the app is blocked for the rest of the day โข Forced Breaks โ auto-pause after continuous use, so marathon sessions get a breather โข Schedules โ block apps during focus hours, dinner time or bedtime, on the weekdays you choose โข Location Blocks โ apps lock automatically when you arrive somewhere (library, office, classroom) โข Your words on the wall โ customize the block screen's title, message and buttons STAY HONEST โข Face ID lock protects your settings โข Optional guardian passcode โ hand the key to someone you trust, so quitting is never one tap away โข Prevent App Deletion โ stops the impulsive "just delete the blocker" move (iOS applies this to all apps on the device while enabled) SEE PROGRESS โข Today's usage and distraction counts at a glance โข Weekly Review โ a quiet Sunday summary of the time you took back PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything stays on your device. No account, no analytics, no server. TimeBack asks for Screen Time permission to block apps โ that is its only required permission. Location is requested only if you use Location Blocks. Built by an indie developer. If TimeBack helps you, you can buy me a coffee in Settings.

StatueMax is the posture app that shows you the truth a mirror can't. Prop up your iPhone, stand side-on, and let the on-device AI scan your posture: forward head, rounded shoulders, hunched upper back, postural double chin. In 10 seconds you get a score out of 100. Brutally honest, zero sugarcoating. Then StatueMax builds your corrective program from YOUR results, and turns fixing your posture into an actual adventure. WHAT STATUEMAX DOES * Scan your profile : one photo, six real measurements computed on your skeleton: head, neck, shoulders, back, pelvis. * Get your verdict : a score out of 100, your detected flaws, and exactly what to fix. No generic advice. * Follow your program : guided daily sessions, 5 to 45 minutes, no equipment, at home. * Live a real adventure : cross illustrated worlds, earn XP, climb the ranks from monkey to STATUE MAX. * Sculpt your jawline : gonial angle, jawline and chin analysis, plus targeted exercises: mewing, jaw work, neck training. * Track your progress : unlimited re-scans, before/after photos, weekly recaps. 100% PRIVATE Your photos never leave your iPhone. The analysis runs entirely on-device: no server, no account, no upload. It even works in airplane mode. WHO IS STATUEMAX FOR? For anyone who spends their days on screens and can feel it: the neck drifting forward, the shoulders closing in, the jawline fading. If you want to stand like a Greek statue instead of a shrimp, this is your reset. StatueMax is a wellness app, not a medical device. If you experience persistent pain, consult a health professional. --- Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the renewal date.

Verdict
