Screen Time Control vs MindLock

Pause helps you scroll on purpose. Lowers your screen time. We all reach for the same apps on autopilot. Pause puts a small, calming puzzle between you and those apps, so opening one becomes a choice, not a reflex. HOW IT WORKS • Choose the apps you want to pause. • When you try to open one, Pause asks you to solve a quick puzzle first. • Solve it, and the app unlocks for 15 minutes of intentional use. • When time's up, the pause comes back automatically. That tiny moment of friction is enough to break the autopilot—and remind you why you picked up your phone in the first place. NINE CALMING PUZZLES Word Jumble, Mini Crossword, Sliding Tile, Ball Sort, Connect the Colors, Maze, Sixdoku, and more. Every unlock is a small mental reset instead of a mindless tap. DESIGNED FOR INTENTION, NOT RESTRICTION Pause isn't about locking yourself out—it's about adding just enough space to choose. No guilt, no lectures. Just a gentle pause. PAUSE PREMIUM • Unlock all nine puzzles • Remove ads • Start with a 7-day free trial, then annual or monthly Your privacy comes first.

Turn mindless scrolling into a moment of thinking. MindLock puts a short quiz or word game between you and your most distracting apps. Get it right and they open. Get it wrong and they stay locked for a 10-minute cooldown. No willpower needed, just a few seconds of real thought before the feed. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose the apps and websites that eat your day. 2. Open one and the lock screen stops you. Tap it to start a challenge. 3. Pass, and your apps open for as long as you set, from 30 minutes to 3 hours. 4. Time's up? They lock again on their own. A countdown on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island shows how long you have left. PICK YOUR CHALLENGE • Quiz: quick rounds on up to 5 themes, like Math, Logic, Geography, History, Animals, Movies and People. • Spelling Bee: hear a word, then type it letter by letter. Exact spelling only. • Word Collapse: start with a long word and remove letters to make a shorter real word, again and again. Hit a dead end and you're locked out. • Random: a surprise every time. Mixed themes, spelling words or a Word Collapse puzzle. SET THE FRICTION Five levels, from Easy to Perfect Run. Easy asks for 3 correct answers out of 5, with hints. Perfect Run asks for 15 out of 15, with 10 seconds per question and no second chances. SHORTCUTS HAVE A PRICE Really need an app right now? Use an emergency unlock straight from the lock screen.
