Unplug
Read full descriptionHide full description
You open one app to answer a message. An hour later you're still there. Screen Time shows you a limit. You tap "Ignore Limit" and it's gone. Willpower works until the first bad day. Deleting the app takes twenty seconds to undo. Unplug takes the way back away. HOW IT WORKS Pick the apps that eat your day and set how many minutes you get. Press one button. From then on the list holds until midnight. There is no password to type and no button inside the app that hands them back early. WHEN A BLOCKED APP OPENS You see a wall, not a question. Other apps ask if you're sure. This one just closes them. LEVEL UP IN REAL LIFE Every day you hold your limit earns XP. XP moves you up levels and through ten ranks, from Rookie to Unplug King. Your streak counts the days you kept going. Badges and trophies for the things you actually did, not for opening the app. DO SOMETHING REAL Three small jobs a day. Go for a run, call someone, cook something. Take a photo when you are done and the app checks it. You get XP, and minutes back on your limit. WHAT ELSE IS IN IT Focus timer with ambient sounds that keep playing with the screen off. Lumis, an AI coach that reads your own numbers and writes you a plan. 66 short lessons on why your phone is built the way it is. Emergency Lock. One tap and every blocked app closes right now. Friends and a leaderboard, scored on what you do in the app. Breathing and grounding exercises for the moments you want to give in. A content filter for adult sites. YOUR DATA STAYS ON YOUR PHONE No ads. No tracking. Your screen time is read from iOS Screen Time and never leaves your device. FREE TO START Block apps and set a daily limit for free. Pro and Unlimited add more apps, Emergency Lock and the full course library. Requires iPhone with iOS 16 or later.

Your body is ready. Is your mind? Mind Games is mental performance training built for athletes — the visualizations, confidence drills, and pre-game routines that the best competitors use to stay calm under pressure and perform when it matters most. No fluff, no generic meditation. Just the mental tools that move the needle on game day. WHAT YOU GET • Guided visualizations — see yourself succeed before you step on the field, court, mat, or track. Four categories covering pre-game prep, focus, confidence, and recovery. • Confidence exercises — practical drills like the Power Anchor and Inner Critic reframe to quiet doubt and lock in self-belief. • Pre-game & post-game routines — build your own mental warm-up, then reflect after games to turn every performance into progress. • Daily check-ins — track your stress and confidence over time and spot the patterns that affect how you play. • Journaling — research-backed prompts (plus free-write) to process nerves, setbacks, and wins. • Goals — set mental targets and watch yourself follow through. • Multi-week programs — structured plans like Pre-Game Confidence, Bounce Back (after a loss), and the 14-day Mental Mastery flagship. • Progress, XP & trophies — stay consistent with a system that rewards showing up for your mind the way you show up for practice. WHO IT'S FOR Competitive and recreational athletes in any sport — football, basketball, soccer, wrestling, tennis, track, golf, and more. Whether you're fighting pre-game nerves, recovering from a tough loss, or chasing the next level, Mind Games gives you a daily mental training habit. MIND GAMES PRO Unlock everything — all visualizations, every confidence exercise, the full progress dashboard, unlimited journaling, routines, goals, and all multi-week programs. Less than the cost of a single session with a sports psychologist. Start with a 7-day free trial. Mind Games is a training and self-improvement tool, not therapy or medical treatment. If you're struggling, please reach out to a qualified professional — in-app crisis resources are always one tap away. Train your mind. Elevate your game.
