Escape the doom scroll — and build a language while you're at it. HabitPass turns your Screen Time blocks into bite-sized vocabulary practice. Pick the apps that pull you in, choose a language you want to learn, and set when the lock kicks in. Practice vocabulary to unlock your apps. On iOS 27, say the translation to turn each card green and complete the unlock wall. On earlier iOS versions, tap and swipe through flashcards. HabitPass requires a separate in-app purchase of HabitPass Pro to use the core Screen Time blocking and flashcard unlock features after free onboarding. Free onboarding lets you preview the flow, choose your language and level, and try a sample flashcard session. Access begins when you start the Pro purchase or free trial. Pro is an auto-renewable subscription purchased in the app; pricing, billing period, auto-renewal terms, and any free trial are shown before purchase. No marathon study plans. No streak-or-die guilt. Just a handful of cards in the gap between picking up your phone and actually using it.
