ZenLocks helps you put your phone down and return to the life in front of you. Not every quiet moment needs another scroll. Morning coffee with your partner, an afternoon with your child, a patient conversation with your parents, or a few minutes alone with your own breath. ZenLocks turns focus into a clear commitment: choose a duration, start a session, and let system-level blocking keep distracting apps out of reach. Why ZenLocks - Strict focus timer: set a session and stay with it. - System-level app blocking: built on Apple Screen Time APIs to block selected distractions. - Deliberate exit friction: no simple cancel button during a session, so your first decision has a little more weight. - Focus stats: see your sessions, streaks, and reclaimed time. - Privacy first: your focus data stays on device and can sync through your private iCloud account. - No ads, no third-party analytics, no tracking. ZenLocks is not here to punish you for using your phone. It is here for the moments worth protecting: love, family, rest, deep work, and the quiet attention you keep meaning to give back to yourself. Lock screen, unlock life.

CalendarSpeak turns your voice into organized events, tasks, and reminders. No typing, no tapping through date pickers. Say what you need and watch it land on your calendar in seconds. HOW IT WORKS Tap the mic, speak naturally, done. The AI assistant understands context, dates, times, and recurring patterns — even when you ramble. Say things like: • "Team standup every weekday at 9 am" • "Move tomorrow's dentist to Friday at 3" • "Cancel next Monday's gym session" • "Add a birthday dinner Saturday at 7 pm, high priority" CalendarSpeak proposes the change, you confirm with one tap — or turn on auto-accept and let it flow hands-free. FEATURES ◆ Voice-First Scheduling Record up to 60 seconds of natural speech. The AI parses dates, durations, locations, recurrence rules, and priority levels automatically. ◆ Smart Calendar Views Switch between Day, Week, Month, Year, and Agenda views. See your timeline at a glance or zoom into a single hour. ◆ Recurring Events Made Easy Daily, weekdays, weekends, weekly, biweekly, monthly — set it once by voice. Skip a single occurrence or end the series whenever you want. ◆ Priority-Based Reminders Four levels: Low, Medium, High, Urgent. Each gets its own notification timing so important events break through and minor ones stay quiet. ◆ Two-Way Apple Calendar Sync Events flow both directions. Anything you create here appears in Apple Calendar, and events from iCloud, Google, Exchange, or any account already on your iPhone sync back automatically. (Pro) ◆ Color Tags & Organization Eight color options to visually group work, personal, health, and social events at a glance. ◆ Siri & Shortcuts Support Trigger recordings or send text commands from Siri, the Shortcuts app, or your Home Screen widget without opening the app. ◆ Widget See upcoming events right on your Home Screen. Tap to jump straight into CalendarSpeak. ◆ Multi-Language Speak in your language — the assistant detects it automatically and responds accordingly. Interface available in multiple languages.
