**FocusBlock — Real Focus, Not Just Good Intentions** You don't need another app that hopes you'll behave. You need one that actually blocks the apps pulling you away from what matters — and then gets out of your way. FocusBlock uses Apple's own Screen Time and Family Controls frameworks to lock distracting apps, categories, and websites during the sessions you set. No login. No account. No backend server anywhere. Everything — your schedules, your stats, your streaks — stays on your device. **Why FocusBlock is different** Most focus apps fall into two camps: gamified apps that feel fun for a week and then get ignored, or friction apps that just slow you down for a few seconds before you scroll anyway. FocusBlock gives you both a gentle option and a real one: - Start a session with one tap, or build a recurring schedule for Study, Work, Sleep, or Morning routines - Block specific apps, entire categories, or distracting websites in Safari - Whitelist the apps you actually need — calls, messages, docs — so blocking never gets in the way of real work - Turn on **Strict Mode** when you know future-you will try to bail early - Use **Emergency Unlock** for genuine emergencies, without making it the easy button for every other moment **Built for how you actually focus** - Pomodoro timer and Deep Work mode for sustained sessions - Custom and recurring schedules that run automatically - Break reminders and focus reminders that nudge without nagging - Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, Live Activities, and Shortcuts integration - Apple Watch support so you can check a session without touching your phone **See your progress, not just your screen time** Daily, weekly, and monthly reports show real patterns — not just a number, but where your time actually goes. Build focus streaks, track goals, and watch a productivity score that reflects effort, not gamified busywork. **Who it's for** Students cramming for exams. Remote workers guarding deep work blocks. Parents setting healthy limits for the family. Anyone who's tried to quit doomscrolling with willpower alone and needs a system that holds when willpower doesn't. **Privacy, actually** No account creation. No data collection. No servers. Your Screen Time data belongs to your device — that's not a slogan, it's the architecture. **One fair price** No surprise trial-to-subscription conversion. No feature-creep paywalls added after you've already paid. Just a tool that does what it says. Download FocusBlock and start your first focus session in under a minute.

Loopcheck turns checklists into something that resets itself instead of piling up forever. Every item comes back on its own schedule — daily, weekdays, or custom days — so you start each morning with a clean list. RECURRING TASKS, NOT ONE-OFF TO-DOS Set a schedule once — daily, weekdays, weekends, or specific days — and the item reappears automatically. No re-adding the same chores every single day. SHARED PROJECTS FOR FAMILY AND TEAMS Create shared projects — Home, Work, Groceries — and invite the people you share them with. Owner, editor, and viewer roles control who can change the list and who just tracks progress. Everything syncs in real time. STREAKS THAT KEEP YOU GOING Finish every item in a project, day after day, and watch your streak grow. The project calendar shows your history at a glance — fully done days, partial days, and what's still ahead. READY-MADE TEMPLATES Don't want to start from a blank list? The template gallery offers ready-made sets for home, work, and study — in English and Russian. Save your own projects as templates to reuse them later. DESIGNED FOR iOS Loopcheck is built with the new Liquid Glass design language — translucent surfaces, fluid animation, full dark mode support — so it feels like a natural part of the system. PRO SUBSCRIPTION The free version covers basic projects and checklists. Loopcheck Pro removes the limits on projects and collaborators and unlocks full completion history, with weekly, monthly, or lifetime plans. Loopcheck is for anyone who wants the important stuff to come back on its own — not get buried in last month's list.
