CardGate vs Procrastination Lock

CardGate turns your phone's distractions into study motivation. Pick the apps that waste your time, bring your flashcards (or let AI generate them), and your phone won't open those apps until you pass a quiz. BUILT FOR • Students grinding Anki for exams (USMLE, MCAT, A-levels, Abitur, bar prep) • Language learners building vocab in Spanish, Japanese, German, and more • Anyone trying to cut screen time — but tired of apps that just nag HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps that distract you — Instagram, TikTok, games, anything 2. Add flashcards: import an Anki .apkg, paste a CSV, generate with AI, or use the built-in starter deck 3. Open a blocked app — tap "Take Quiz" on the shield. Pass to unlock the app 4. Track your streak and watch your screen time drop FLASHCARDS YOUR WAY • Import Anki decks (.apkg) with full media — images, audio, cloze deletions, image occlusion, LaTeX/MathJax • Paste CSV or TSV from Quizlet, Excel, or any spreadsheet • Create cards directly in the app • AI flashcard generator — paste your notes (or upload a .txt or .pdf) and get a deck back. Free with your own ChatGPT/Claude account using paste-back, or one-tap Direct AI with affordable credit packs (no subscription required) • Built-in starter deck on first launch QUIZ MODES • Flip — read the answer, self-grade • Multiple Choice — AI-generated distractors or smart on-device fallbacks SMART STUDYING • Card selection prioritizes cards you struggle with and haven't seen recently • Wrong answers re-queue until you get them right EARN TIME MODE Don't want hard blocks? Switch on Earn Time — answer cards to bank screen-time minutes, then spend them on the apps you've blocked. PER-APP CONTROL • Cooldowns so passing a quiz buys you 0–60 minutes of access before the shield returns • Halfway and 1-minute-warning notifications before the shield comes back • Set the card count required per app TRACK YOUR PROGRESS • Daily streak • Weekly and monthly study stats • Recent quiz history FREE VS PREMIUM • Free: 1 blocked app + 1 deck (up to 500 cards), Flip and Multiple Choice modes, paste-back AI generation, cooldowns, Earn Time mode, all stats • Premium: unlimited blocked apps, unlimited decks, unlimited cards per deck, recurring AI credits each period • Plus: pay-as-you-go AI credit packs for one-tap Direct AI generation — no subscription required PRIVACY FIRST All your data stays on your device. No accounts, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. AI generation only sends the text you choose to generate from — never your decks, browsing data, or anything else. ABOUT FAMILY CONTROLS (SCREEN TIME) CardGate uses Apple's official Family Controls / Screen Time APIs to block apps. You'll be asked to grant permission once during setup. Apps you select are tokenized by Apple — CardGate never sees the actual list of apps you've installed and never reads your screen. SUBSCRIPTION TERMS Premium is offered as Weekly, Monthly, Yearly auto-renewable subscriptions and a one-time Lifetime purchase. Subscriptions auto-renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel any time in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions. Privacy policy and terms linked below.

Procrastination Lock turns an avoided task into a focus commitment you can actually finish. Start with 3 complete locks free. Write the exact task, choose the apps that distract you, set a timer, and decide what evidence will prove the work is done. Selected apps stay blocked until the session is completed. When you finish, submit a photo or a short proof video. The verifier checks whether the evidence matches your goal before unlocking your apps. If visual proof is genuinely unavailable, explain why for a separate plausibility review. Emergency unlocks remain available, but they never count as completed work. BUILD REAL MOMENTUM - Track protected minutes instead of hypothetical time saved. - See completed tasks and your current focus streak. - Review a seven-day progress chart. - Receive focus and session-complete reminders. - Earn an occasional proof-free completion after consistent approvals. USE IT FOR Studying, writing, deep work, reading, workouts, cleaning, room resets, admin tasks, and any goal with a visible finish line. FREE AND PREMIUM Your first 3 locks are free and do not start a subscription. Premium gives you unlimited locks with weekly or yearly access. Eligible new yearly subscribers receive a one-week free trial. Payment renews automatically unless cancelled through Apple subscription settings at least 24 hours before the renewal date.
