Noff is built for people who are done negotiating with distractions. Most blockers are easy to bypass in seconds. Noff adds real-world friction: when Focus is active, you unlock with your paired NFC tag. That small physical step helps interrupt impulsive scrolling and keeps your attention where it matters. Why Noff works: - Physical unlock ritual with your NFC tag - Fast setup, no proprietary hardware required - Session modes that match your day: Infinite, 30m, 1h, 2h - Custom Focus profiles for different contexts - Block apps, categories, and websites - Recovery and Emergency paths for real-life moments - Weekly metrics to track actual behavior changes Built for intentional focus: - No account required - Private by design - Core flow works on-device If you want stronger boundaries than “I’ll just ignore it for now,” Noff gives you a practical system you’ll actually use.

MODO is your physical key for digital focus. Tap your MODO card to your iPhone and every app that drags you out of flow is instantly locked – Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, games, whatever your weak spot is. When you’re truly done, tap again and everything’s back. No passwords you set for yourself. No timers you swipe away. Just you, your card, and real focus. HOW IT WORKS • Pick the apps and websites you want blocked • Build your modes: Deep Work, Study, Evening, Workout • Tap your MODO card to your iPhone – locked • Tap again – unlocked WHY MODO • Physical friction beats willpower • Powered by Apple Screen Time – stable and native • Schedules for recurring focus blocks • Emergency codes for real exceptions (limited on purpose – friction is the point) • Weekly stats so you see the time you got back WHO IT'S FOR Students, knowledge workers, creators, parents – anyone tired of the endless scroll who wants their attention back. YOUR DATA Everything stays on your device. No tracking, no cloud login, no ads. Note: MODO requires a MODO NFC card (sold separately), iOS 17, and an iPhone with NFC. What's New (1.0) Hello world. This is MODO 1.0 – your first real focus key. We’d love your feedback.
