48% of people say yes when they mean no. You already know which one you are. You learned to say yes to stay safe. It's a nervous system pattern, not a personality flaw. And it can be unlearned. Bounds is the first app built specifically for people-pleasing recovery. 7-day free trial included. If This Sounds Like You • You say yes, then spend the whole evening annoyed at yourself for it • You go quiet and agreeable the moment there is conflict. That is the fawn response, not a personality • You can say exactly what everyone else needs, and not what you want • The anxiety arrives before you have even answered • You have read about codependency, anxious and avoidant attachment, and recognized yourself in all of it None of that is a character flaw. Setting boundaries is the part everyone talks about. Knowing which answer is actually yours is the part that makes it possible. Ninety Seconds of Clarity When a boundary moment hits, open Bounds: • Breathe - a guided pause. Space before your brain says yes. • Feel where it lives - jaw, stomach, chest. Your body knows before you do. • Get the words - scripts for your exact situation. Words you can actually say. • Decide - yes or no, both celebrated equally. What Changes • Say no without the guilt spiral • Know what you actually want, not just what everyone else needs • More honest relationships • A quieter mind at night • Energy for what actually matters • Proof it's working - patterns that shift week over week Built for Your Pattern A 2-minute quiz identifies your people-pleasing type - guilt, fear, achievement, habit, or identity. Everything adapts: the scripts, the reflections, the way the app talks to you. • Personalized scripts - for work, family, friends, dating, money, and yourself • Evening reflections - process the day in under a minute • Weekly reviews - see which people and situations trigger your automatic yes • Recovery timeline - 5 phases from awareness to integration • Morning intentions - set your focus before the requests start Five Therapy Frameworks CBT, DBT, Internal Family Systems, Somatic Experiencing, and ACT. Not a wellness app - structured, therapy-grade boundary work. 100% local. Your decisions and reflections never leave your device. No account. No cloud. It's okay to have needs. Start with one decision. See what changes. Subscription The quiz and your result are free. The app then opens with a 7-day free trial, and after that a subscription is needed to use the full app. It renews automatically at the price shown in the app unless you cancel before the trial ends.

Your morning coffee is still in your bloodstream at midnight. Perkly shows you exactly how much. THE LIVE CURVE One glance shows the caffeine in your system right now, rising and falling in real time. Scroll back through past days and watch last night's espresso still working this morning. LOG IN ONE TAP Nine everyday drinks - espresso, coffee, latte, cold brew, black tea, green tea, matcha, energy drink, cola - in three sizes. Tap, done. Forgot one? Backdate it. PROTECT YOUR SLEEP Set your bedtime and a caffeine target. Perkly computes your personal last call - the latest moment another coffee still fits - and can nudge you once, right before it passes. No streaks, no guilt, no spam. TUNED TO YOUR BODY Caffeine clearance varies from person to person. Tell Perkly if you smoke, take oral contraceptives, are pregnant, or simply feel caffeine strongly, and the curve adapts to your estimated half-life. EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK Home Screen widgets with the live curve, one-tap quick-log buttons, Lock Screen widgets, and a Live Activity that counts down to sleep-ready.
