Roost. vs Lunoris

Bedtime without the phone fight. Roost locks the apps that keep you — or your kids — up at night, on a schedule you set, behind a PIN that can’t be undone in a weak moment. Set it once and it runs automatically. Now with Roost +, you can also pause apps by location. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose the apps. Pick the feeds, games, and chats that should pause. 2. Set the schedule. Match school nights and weekends to the way your family actually works. 3. Add locations with Roost +. Pause selected apps when the device arrives at places like school, tutoring, or afterschool care, then unlock them when it leaves. 4. Make it stick. A parent PIN and Apple Screen Time help keep settings from being switched off. When a schedule starts, your chosen apps are locked until the window ends. With Roost +, apps can also lock and unlock automatically based on saved locations. No nightly nagging, no manual on/off. ROOST + Roost + is an optional subscription add-on for location-based app blocking: - Create saved locations with custom names and radius controls. - Automatically pause apps when the device arrives. - Automatically unlock apps when the device leaves. - View location-based roosting status inside the app. FOR PARENTS Roost is built around routines instead of constant policing: - Parent PIN protects your settings and early wake-ups. - Recovery email lets you reset your PIN securely if you forget it. - Screen Time guide walks you through the iOS settings that keep Roost firmly in place. - Location-based blocking helps protect focus during school, tutoring, care programs, and other daily routines. FOR EVERYONE Not a parent? Roost works just as well for grown-ups who scroll past their own bedtime. Run it in self-managed mode and give yourself a gentle, automatic pause for the apps you can’t put down. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Roost is built to need as little of your data as possible: - Your PIN is hashed and stored only in your device’s secure Keychain. It never leaves your phone. - The apps and schedules you choose are represented by Apple’s private Screen Time tokens. We never see which apps you block or when. - Location-based blocking uses saved places to trigger Roost + on your device. - We don’t sell data or run ads. The only personal information Roost collects is an email address, used solely to send a PIN reset code if you ever forget your PIN. BUILT ON APPLE SCREEN TIME Roost uses Apple’s Family Controls, Screen Time, and Location Services frameworks to block apps reliably at the system level. Made for iPhone and iPad. Sleep first. Scroll later. Questions? Email support@useroost.app Privacy Policy: https://useroost.app/privacy.html Terms of Use: https://useroost.app/terms.html

The bite has its hour. The lake stills. A ripple where there was nothing. Then the rod tip trembles — and the whole day makes sense. Every angler lives for that stretch of time. The trouble is reaching it before it passes. Lunoris was made for people who would rather read the water than chase noise. THE SOLUNAR WATCH At the centre of the app is a 24-hour dial built for your coordinates — not the nearest city's forecast, but the sky above your spot. Blue arcs mark the major windows: the two hours each day when fish, by long observation, feed with purpose. Gold traces minor periods at moonrise and moonset. Moon overhead and underfoot sit at the top and bottom of the face. A hand moves through your local time. One look tells you where you stand. Inside the window? Twenty minutes early? Already past the peak? No almanac. No arithmetic. The whole day, readable at a glance. THE FISHING SCORE Below the dial, a score from 0 to 100 weighs moon phase, solunar timing, weather, barometric pressure, and geomagnetic activity into one plain verdict — Excellent, Good, Fair, or Poor. Leave now, or wait for the next arc? Lunoris lets you decide before you rig a rod. WHERE THE IDEA COMES FROM Anglers were reading the moon and barometer long before anyone shipped an app. In 1926, John Alden Knight went through thousands of catch records and found what old hands already suspected: feeding often clusters into windows tied to the moon passing overhead, underfoot, at rise, and at set. For a hundred years those tables lived in almanacs and pocket notebooks. Barometer lore lived in porch talk — pressure holding, fish willing; pressure falling, bite gone quiet. Lunoris brings both traditions onto one screen — Knight's windows, today's weather, pressure trend, twilight, geomagnetic activity — for your water, not someone else's. INSIDE THE APP — ALL OF IT, FREE Solunar Watch — the full bite day before you load the car. Fishing Score — one number from moon, solunar peaks, pressure trend, wind, cloud, season, and Kp. The same logic on Home, calendar, and widget. Best Targets — which fish families are likely active near you today. 365-day Calendar — scroll months ahead and pick days when moon and solunar line up. Active Sessions and "Caught!" — start a session on the bank. One tap records a fish with GPS, a photo, and a snapshot of the sky exactly as it was. Journal — sessions, catches, photographs; a private log, not a spreadsheet. Your Map — every spot you have earned, kept on your device alone. Personal Insights — over time, your patterns emerge: moon phases, pressure bands, baits, hours, success by spot. Nothing leaves the phone. Home Screen Widget — score and peak window for each saved location. Notifications — strong days, major solunar periods, sudden pressure shifts. Fishing Restrictions — local rules where data exists. ON THE WATER Moon and solunar math run on your phone without a signal. Weather updates when you have one; if a front outruns the forecast, tap Recalculate now. Dawn on a lake you have fished for years. A cliff of falling pressure at dusk. One free hour — is the drive worth it? Lunoris trades guesswork for a clear read. Everything included. No subscription. No ads. The score is angling tradition turned into software — a guide, not a promise. Know your regulations. Fish carefully.
