BrushFirst turns brushing your teeth into a non-negotiable — by locking your favorite apps until you do it. Using Apple's Screen Time technology, BrushFirst shields the apps you love (social media, games, streaming) until you complete your brushing session. No brush, no scroll. HOW IT WORKS Set your morning and night brushing windows. When a window opens, BrushFirst activates — your selected apps stay blocked until you complete a guided 2-minute session. Brush, confirm, unlock. FEATURES • App blocking — distracting apps stay locked until your routine is done • Morning & night protection — separate windows for AM and PM sessions • Guided 2-minute timer — keeps you on track during every brush • Live Activity — follow your session progress right from the Lock Screen • Streaks & milestones — track your consistency day by day • Weekly insights — see your completion rate at a glance • Snooze — need a few extra minutes? Snooze once without losing your streak • Smart scheduling — lock mode adapts to whether you skip mornings, nights, or both THE 21-DAY HABIT Research shows it takes about 21 days to lock in a new habit. BrushFirst keeps count and celebrates when you hit that milestone — so the routine becomes automatic. BUILT FOR PEOPLE WHO FORGET Whether you lose track at night scrolling social media, or rush through mornings without brushing, BrushFirst works in the background to catch you before you skip again. BrushFirst requires a subscription to enable app blocking and guided sessions. Privacy policy: https://brushfirst.figma.site/privacy Terms of use: https://brushfirst.figma.site/terms
