PhoneVet vs Boot Up Focus

Thinking of buying a used Phone? Don't guess — PhoneVet runs a full hardware diagnostic in minutes so you know exactly what you're getting before you hand over your money. Completely free, no account required, and no data collected. Open the app, run the tests, check the results. 12 HARDWARE TESTS BATTERY See the exact battery percentage, charging state, and whether Low Power Mode is secretly hiding a degraded battery. A manual tip is included to check Battery Health % in Settings. CAMERA Live front and rear camera preview. Check for blurry images, dead pixels, scratched lenses, and slow autofocus. MICROPHONE & SPEAKER Records a short audio clip and plays it back through the bottom speaker. Instantly reveals muffled mics or crackly speakers. EARPIECE SPEAKER Routes audio through the top earpiece — the small speaker used during phone calls. Broken earpieces are one of the most common issues after unofficial screen repairs. SENSORS Live readings from the accelerometer, gyroscope, and magnetometer. A broken gyroscope affects gaming, AR apps, and auto-rotate. A dead compass breaks Apple Maps navigation. HAPTICS Fires 7 different Taptic Engine patterns from light tap to error buzz. If none of them vibrate, the Taptic Engine is disconnected or broken. FLASHLIGHT Toggles the rear LED torch on and off. Instant confirmation that the torch LED is alive and stays on reliably. PROXIMITY SENSOR Step-by-step guide to test the face sensor that turns your screen off during calls. A broken sensor means the screen stays on every call, draining battery fast. BAROMETER Reads the atmospheric pressure sensor used by Weather, Maps, and fitness apps for floor detection and altitude tracking. NETWORK Checks Wi-Fi connection type, internet reachability, and your local IP address. Includes a checklist to manually verify cellular signal and Bluetooth. DEVICE INFO Shows the exact Phone model name, iOS version, RAM, and full storage breakdown. Flags nearly-full storage and outdated iOS versions. FACE ID / TOUCH ID Checks whether biometric hardware is present and enrolled, then triggers a live Face ID or Touch ID prompt to confirm it actually works. WHY PHONEVET? - Completely free, no hidden purchases - No account, no sign-up, no email required - Zero data collected, everything stays on your device - Clean pass/fail summary at the end - Works on any Phone running iOS 16 or later WHAT PHONEVET CANNOT TEST A few things are locked by Apple and unavailable to any third-party app. Always check these manually before buying: Battery Health % — Settings > Battery > Battery Health Activation Lock — Settings > General > About IMEI — Settings > General > About (match it to the box or back sticker) Warranty status — checkcoverage.apple.com PERFECT FOR Buying a used or refurbished Phone from Facebook Marketplace, eBay, Craigslist, or a private seller.

Make your distracting apps boot up like heavy video games, so you don't accidentally start scrolling whenever you have a second to spare. When you tap TikTok, Instagram, Reddit, or any app you choose, Boot Up intercepts the launch and runs a boot sequence. A loading bar. Compile messages. A few seconds of nothing. Break the habit of opening addictive apps instantly. How it works: - Reaching for TikTok at breakfast You unlock your phone and tap the icon out of habit. Instead of an endless scroll, you get a 30 second Boot Up screen. What might've turned into an 15 minute accidental doomscroll is now a conscious decision to boot up your app. - Doomscrolling in bed You open Reddit at 11pm "just to check." Reddit starts booting up. You decide you are too tired before it finishes booting up. You lock the phone and go to sleep. - Actual break time You actually have a moment to scroll. You wait for Instagram to boot up and start your scroll. After 10 minutes your grace period is reached and Boot Up shuts down Instagram. You are always in control: - Pick exactly which apps to lock - Set the boot duration from 5 seconds to 5 minutes - Set the grace period, how long the app stays open after unlocking - Optional boot time and grace period per app What Boot Up is not: - Not a subscription. It is free, forever. No premium tier, no trial. - Not a tracker. Zero analytics. No network requests. Your app choices never leave your phone. - Not a guilt machine. No streaks. No shame. No motivational quotes. Just friction. - Not closed source. Source code is on GitHub. Instead of relying on willpower every time you pick up your phone, add a few seconds of friction so distraction becomes the harder choice. Set it up once. Tap the icon. Wait through the boot. Feel better about your scroll. github.com/eliguzz/BootUp
