WinRot vs WiredIN

WinRot cuts your screen time by half by making your phone boot up like an old PC every time you try to open a distracting app. Before feeds. Before infinite scroll. Before apps were built by teams of psychologists to keep you hooked, a computer was just a tool. You turned it on. You did your thing. You turned it off. WinRot brings that back. Try to open TikTok, Instagram, or whatever's stealing your day, and: * WinRot boots up an old-school desktop * You click the desktop icon * You clear a CAPTCHA By the time you're through, the urge has usually passed. The result: hours back in your day. Less autopilot scrolling. More sleep. More focus. More of your life actually lived. What you get: - Boot-Up Friction: selected apps open behind a retro loading screen and CAPTCHA, not a single tap - App Blocker: block apps instantly or schedule blocks for work, sleep, or study - Focus Timer: a chunky retro countdown that makes deep work sessions satisfying to watch - Usage Insights: see attempts blocked and time reclaimed, no guesswork WinRot doesn't ask you to have more willpower. It takes away the one thing modern apps gave you that you never asked for: instant access. PRIVATE & SECURE All blocking and monitoring happen entirely on your device. Nothing you browse ever leaves your phone. **Boot-Up Friction on 1 app + Focus Timer up to 10min for FREE. Everything else requires a subscription.** Terms of Service: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://winrot-privacy-policy.notion.site/WINROT-PRIVACY-POLICY-3bda28d2dee180b3a75ece6af8fc326f?source=copy_link

Stop doomscrolling, your way. Block an app completely, limit it, make yourself earn it, or shrink it down to just the parts you need. Free to use. Most blockers give you one switch: on or off. Real life doesn't work like that. You need Maps at work, messages at night, and nothing at all during an exam. WiredIN gives you four ways to take back your time, and lets you pick how hard each app gets locked. FOUR WAYS TO STOP THE SCROLL Block: shut out the apps and websites that pull you away, from a gentle nudge to Extreme, where quitting early is genuinely hard. Limit: give an app a daily budget, in minutes or in opens. Five opens a day hits differently than thirty minutes. Earn it: each open costs a breath, a quick check-in about why you're reaching for it, or something small you learn first. Most reaches end right there. Shrink it: open a stripped-down version of your social apps. Messages stay. The endless feed doesn't. IT RUNS ITSELF The moment you most need a blocker is the moment you're least likely to open one. So WiredIN doesn't wait for you. Routines: a study block every weekday, a Night Shield for the 1am scroll, on the days and hours you choose. Focus Zones: pin the library, your office or your desk. Walk in and your apps lock. Walk out and they come back. One tap from anywhere: widgets and a Control Center button start a session without opening the app. WHO IT'S FOR Students who open a textbook and end up on their phone 40 minutes later Builders and deep workers who need hours, not minutes Night scrollers who meant to sleep an hour ago Anyone who has deleted an app, redownloaded it, and deleted it again STAY WITH IT Focus Rooms: lock in alongside friends in real time Streaks and weekly challenges that turn focus into a habit Stats that show where your time went and which blocks held FREE, FOR GOOD Every focus mode, one Focus Zone, two routines at once, one app limit, three focus recipes and your last 7 days of stats.

Nothing on your Home Screen is ever moved or removed. Your phone should work for you. Get your hours back. WiredIN Pro is $0.99 a month with a 7 day free trial through Apple, or $3.99 once for life.
