Tinted App Lock vs TapLock

Most app blockers rely on passcodes or willpower. Tinted uses a physical key card to add friction and make distractions harder to bypass. ------------------------------- Need a card? Visit: tinted.world ------------------------------- You select the apps that drain your time (TikTok, Instagram, Snapchat, etc). You lock them down. The ONLY way to unlock them is to physically tap your Tinted NFC card to the top of your iPhone. Leave the card in your car, give it to a parent, or lock it in another room. If you don't have the card in your hand, you don't get your apps. FEATURES: • Unlock Cooldown: Select how long you must wait before unlocking. • Emergency Unlocks: Everyone gets 3 emergency unlocks per month. Only use them if truly needed. • Custom Blocklists: Choose exactly which apps and websites to lock down. You have goals you want to hit. Stop letting your phone win.

TapLock turns a physical NFC card into the only key that unlocks your apps. Tap your card to lock your iPhone's distracting apps behind a Screen Time shield. To get them back, you have to physically tap the card again. The card has to be in your hand. Without it, the only ways back in are slow by design. HOW IT WORKS Choose which apps to block, then tap "Lock Now" Apps stay blocked until you tap your registered NFC card to the top of your phone Need a break? Pause the session and it picks up right where you left off Allow yourself a few short breaks without the card, if you want them (off by default) Set a timer to auto-unlock after a focus session ends WHAT CARDS WORK Any NFC card you already carry: transit cards, hotel keys, student IDs, office keycards, or cheap NFC stickers. If your iPhone can read it, TapLock can use it.

Both devices just need the same Apple ID. iPads have no NFC reader, so they pair as a kept device and are always opened from your iPhone. EMERGENCY ACCESS Lost your card? A 6-digit PIN still unlocks, but slowly: every PIN unlock ends with a short puzzle, and with a card registered the PIN works 5 times per 30 days on each device. After that, a 24-hour emergency unlock is always offered, so you are never locked out for good. On an iPhone with no card registered yet, the PIN is not limited. TapLock does not replace your iPhone's lock screen. It uses Apple's Screen Time framework to shield apps while your phone stays accessible for calls and emergencies. Free 7-day trial.
