Time Wallet keeps your distractions closed until you decide to take a break. Choose the app that pulls you in too easily. Time Wallet protects it by default using Apple Screen Time tools. When you want access, start a 5, 15 or 30 minute break. During the break, your protected selection is available. When the time ends, Time Wallet locks it again automatically. FREE β’ Protect one individual app β’ Take unlimited 5, 15 or 30 minute breaks β’ End a break early when you are done β’ Automatic re-protection after every break β’ Essential weekly statistics β’ No account required TIME WALLET PRO β’ Protect multiple apps β’ Protect categories and websites when supported by Screen Time β’ Choose custom break durations β’ Add an optional daily limit β’ Add optional cooldown between breaks β’ Use Strict Mode for stronger rules β’ See advanced history and statistics Time Wallet is designed for conscious access, not more time inside the app. A day with no break can still be a useful day if your protection stayed in place.

Screen Time Control

You picked up your phone to check one thing. That was forty minutes ago. Focus Control shows you where your day actually goes and gives you the tools to take it back. SEE THE REAL NUMBER Your screen time, at a glance. See which apps took the most time and how today compares to yesterday. No guessing, no judgment, just the truth about where your hours went. BLOCK WHAT PULLS YOU IN Choose the apps that break your focus and shut them out. Instagram, TikTok, whatever yours are. When you try to open one, it simply wonβt be there. FOCUS SESSIONS THAT ACTUALLY HOLD Start a session and the distractions disappear until youβre done. Work, study, dinner, sleep, pick your window and stay in it. SET A LIMIT, GET A NUDGE Give yourself a daily allowance. Focus Control warns you as you approach it, so you can stop by choice instead of noticing at midnight. DOWNTIME ON A SCHEDULE Set the hours that belong to you, mornings, evenings, weekends, and let them stay that way automatically. BUILT TO BE PRIVATE Focus Control only ever sees how long you spend in an app, never what you do inside it. Your data stays on your device. Take back one hour a day, and you get fifteen days back a year.
