Return vs EarnTime

Return is a quiet, private way for Jehovah's Witnesses to remember a ministry conversation and return prepared. Capture a conversation in seconds — typed or spoken, in your own words. Return saves those words on your device first. On supported iPhone, on-device intelligence can then notice useful details such as a person, Scripture, topic, follow-up, or return visit time. Return shows you what it kept on the receipt, and you can change or remove any of it. A saved conversation is complete even with no details at all. When it is time to return, Return brings the right confirmed memory back into view before you knock, call, write, or meet: what you discussed, what you promised, and what comes next. Plan a return visit by phone or message with no address: keep a number, email or account with the app they use, and copy what Return can't open. WHAT RETURN DOES • Capture while it is fresh. Write or speak naturally; no person, place, form, or connection is required before Save. • See what Return noticed. Details appear on the receipt as soon as you save, marked Suggested until you change them. • Return prepared. Before you knock puts the door, the name, what you promised and what they asked first, each with how long ago it was. • Find the door again. Save an address or Apple Maps place, a precise pin, doorway photo, or landmark path. Essential distance and bearing still work without map tiles or a connection. • Keep relationship memory. Conversation history stays reachable even when a conversation is not attached to a person. • Designed for iPad. Browse your notes in a multi-column Living Fieldbook. • Use it from Apple Watch. Capture, your next return visit, and the ministry timer stay close on your wrist. • Ask Siri. Say "Search Return" or use the Lock Screen widget, and Search opens with your words already in it. Nothing from your notes is indexed by the system or read aloud. • Your month, day by day. A calendar shows conversations, hours and return visits by day. Set an hour goal, with days away left out. Review hours, credit hours and Bible studies before sharing a monthly report or a service-year card. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Core records live on your device. Return has no account, developer notes server, analytics, ads, or third-party trackers. • Return uses Apple's Speech Recognition and requests on-device recognition to turn speech into text. iOS may disclose that speech data can be sent to Apple for speech recognition. Return has no server that receives your recording, and the recording is deleted after you review the note. • Return never creates a hidden profile about a person. Structured details come only from your words, are always shown to you, and stay editable. • You can record whether a person knows you keep a note, and review, export, or erase records when you choose. THE ESSENTIAL WORK STAYS FREE Capture, conversations, return visits, Bible studies, reporting, hours, timers, Apple Watch, widgets, essential maps and offline wayfinding, privacy controls, export and erase, and accessibility remain complete on device without a subscription. Return Supporter is an optional monthly or annual subscription. Today it adds seven more themes, each with its own app icon, a richer map at the door, richer widget and Watch layouts, and Your rhythm: Return learns the days you usually go out and plans your hour goal around them. The Supporter page in the app shows what is included today and what is still coming. Fieldbook Light, Fieldbook Dark, Match System, and assisted reference lookup stay free. Supporter never locks your own records or the only path to a core action. Return is an independent app. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or produced by any religious organization.

Tired of doomscrolling? Earn your screen time through real movement. Intelligent app blocking that only counts true visual screen time: free background audio, workout immunity, and rest day reserves—with zero subscriptions and 100% on-device privacy. Most screen time blockers treat you like a child, forcing rigid locks that punish you for listening to music or working out. EarnTime is different. It seamlessly aligns your physical health with your digital habits: close your Apple Watch rings, earn minutes, and spend them without guilt. SMART SCREEN TIME: ONLY REAL USAGE COUNTS • Free Screen-Off Audio: Listening to YouTube, Spotify, or podcasts with your screen locked in your pocket? It won't cost you a single second. We detect display state and only count time when your eyes are actually on the screen. • Workout Immunity: Out for a run, cycling, or lifting at the gym? Monitored apps stay completely unlocked during active Apple Watch workout sessions. Never get locked out of your workout playlist or training log. • Exercise Adds Time: Each synced Exercise ring minute earns one minute of unlocked app allowance. Active movement above your daily baseline earns an extra bonus. • Keep Room for Rest: Real life happens. You start each day with a 30-minute grace period, backed by a 60-minute weekly reserve (up to 120 minutes) for rest days and recovery. • Intelligent Shielding: When your daily allowance and reserve run out, selected distracting apps are gently shielded until you get moving again. A GLANCE ON YOUR WRIST & HOME SCREEN • Apple Watch Companion: Check your live remaining allowance, reserve, and status directly from your wrist. • iOS Widgets: Beautiful Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets keep your balance visible at all times. • History & Marks: Track your weekly progress, celebrate streaks without punitive broken-streak penalties, and collect editorial weekly covers. WHY EARNTIME IS DIFFERENT • No Subscriptions: Free to start with 1 monitored app. Unlock up to 10 apps with a single, tiny $1.99 one-time purchase. Future core updates included forever. • 100% Private & Local: No accounts, no ads, no trackers, and no remote servers. Everything runs strictly on your device via Apple’s native Screen Time and HealthKit APIs. • Guilt-Free Balance: We don't believe in digital starvation. Unused daily time rolls over into your reserve, turning your screen time into a healthy, earned reward. COMPATIBILITY & NOTES Requires an iPhone with iOS 17.4 or later and Apple Watch Exercise ring data in Apple Health. Health read access and individual Screen Time authorization are required. The Apple Watch companion app requires watchOS 10.0 or later. Balance updates after exercise data syncs via HealthKit. Sync and callback frequency are managed by iOS.
