Do First locks your most distracting apps until you finish your real to-do list for the day. Your to-do list, with teeth. Open Instagram, TikTok, or YouTube before you've done your tasks, and a calm block screen appears: "Finish your tasks to unlock." Knock out your checklist, and your apps open for the rest of the day. Earn your scroll. HOW IT WORKS - Pick the apps to block (any app, using Screen Time). - Add your daily tasks: post to socials, make the bed, 20 pushups, whatever matters. - Finish your required tasks to unlock your apps. - Build a streak and stay accountable, day after day. TWO WAYS TO LOCK - Tasks-First (free): your apps stay locked each day until your required tasks are done. - Deadline (Pro): your apps stay open until a cutoff you choose, then lock if your tasks aren't done.

Done: Focus Lock is designed to keep distracting apps blocked until you upload proof that your task is finished. An emergency override is available when you need to end a lock without accepted proof. Name what you want to focus on and start a focus lock. Done uses Apple Screen Time to block the apps or categories you select. When you finish, upload a photo or screenshot. If it reasonably shows the task is complete, your apps unlock. PROOF-BASED COMPLETION A timer can run out while the work is still sitting there. Done normally keeps the lock active until your upload shows the task is complete. An emergency override can end the lock without accepted proof and is recorded in Progress. CHOOSE WHAT TO BLOCK Done can block almost any app. Select All Apps for the strongest lock, or leave the apps you need for the task available. TRACK WHAT YOU FINISH Progress keeps your completed tasks and focus time together. Streaks and challenges help you keep showing up. Use Done for homework, studying, writing, chores, paperwork, and personal projects. Done Pro removes the free-plan focus-lock limit for normal personal use. Subscription prices, trial eligibility, renewal terms, and any applicable service limits are shown before purchase. Manage or cancel through Apple.
