LearnLock turns the time you lose to your phone into time you learn something real. Pick any topic: a class, a certification, a language, a book, a skill you've always wanted to pick up. LearnLock's AI builds you a personalized study plan with bite-sized daily lessons, quizzes, and fill-in-the-blank practice designed around how memory actually works. A few minutes a day, every day, adds up faster than you think. Then comes the part that makes it stick: Focus Mode. Using Apple's Screen Time and Family Controls, LearnLock locks your most distracting apps (social media, games, video, or whatever derails you) until you finish today's study session. Study first. Scroll later. WHAT MAKES LEARNLOCK DIFFERENT • A personal AI tutor. Generate a full study plan from a topic, a syllabus, a PDF, or even photos of your notes or textbook. • Built on spaced learning. Short daily sessions beat cramming. Your retention improves week over week instead of fading in days. • Fill-in-the-blank, multiple choice, and explanations. Answers are graded and explained, not just marked right or wrong. • Focus Mode with real teeth. Choose which apps get locked during study time. Break them down only by earning your session. • Streaks that reward real effort. See your days compound. Miss a day and you'll feel it, because you're supposed to. • Deadline-aware planning. Got a test on the 14th? LearnLock paces your lessons to hit the date. • Confidence + level aware. Tell it what you already know. It won't waste your time re-teaching it. • Private by design. Your plans and progress stay on your device. We don't sell data, we don't run ads, we don't track you. WHO IT'S FOR • Students prepping for exams, finals, or certifications • Self-learners picking up a new skill, subject, or language • Anyone who feels like their phone is stealing hours from them and wants those hours back • People who want to learn a little every day, for real, not just in theory HOW IT WORKS Tell LearnLock what you want to learn. Paste a syllabus, upload a PDF, or snap photos of your notes. AI builds your plan. Daily sessions are generated based on your deadline, level, and confidence. Study first, unlock second. Focus Mode blocks distracting apps until you finish today's session. Keep showing up. Your streak grows. So does your knowledge. Win back the time your phone has been taking, and become someone who actually learned the thing. LearnLock. Study first. Scroll later. LearnLock is a product of Builado LLC.
