Instead of mindless scrolling, Nosk blocks distracting apps and only unlocks them when you complete physical, real-world tasks! Break the digital loop.

NAGE

Pick up your phone and find yourself in the same feed half an hour later? NAGE turns those minutes into a language. A paid subscription is required to use NAGE (Focus or Pro, auto-renewing). Every plan starts with a 3-day free trial. Choose the apps that distract you. NAGE locks them with Screen Time. Finish today's short lesson and the lock opens: you get 45 minutes in those apps. When the time is used up, the lock comes back, and a new lesson opens another 45 minutes. Every day starts locked. HOW IT WORKS ⢠You choose which apps and categories to lock, and you can change the list at any time. ⢠Tap the button on the lock screen and a notification takes you straight to today's lesson. ⢠A lesson takes a few minutes: new words, listening, a quiz and review. ⢠Your earned time only counts down while you use the apps you locked. We'll let you know 5 minutes before it runs out. ⢠You can change how long apps stay open in Settings. LESSONS ⢠Spanish and French with explanations in English, starting at beginner (A1) level. ⢠Turkish speakers can also learn English, with explanations in Turkish. ⢠Spaced repetition brings back the words you're about to forget at the right time. ⢠Short grammar notes and reading passages. ⢠Listening practice with spoken words. ⢠Optional speaking practice: record yourself and listen back. Recordings never leave your device. ⢠Take the placement test to start at the right point. SEE YOUR PROGRESS ⢠Your streak, the words you've learned and the access minutes you've earned. ⢠The monthly trend of your real usage in the apps you locked (iOS Screen Time data, kept on your phone). PRIVACY The list of apps you choose and your device's usage data never leave your phone. An account is optional: sign in to sync your progress across devices. You can delete your account from inside the app at any time. SUBSCRIPTION (PURCHASE REQUIRED) All features above require a paid Focus or Pro subscription. Every plan starts with a 3-day free trial. ⢠Focus (paid subscription): app lock, ready-made lessons and progress tracking. ⢠Pro (separate, higher-priced paid subscription): everything in Focus, plus daily AI-built lessons and extra practice based on your weak spots. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless it is canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage and cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings. Any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
