Ballast vs 42Runs

A plan for the next urge, and a filter that holds on a bad night. Ballast helps you leave adult content and compulsive habits behind, privately, without an account and without brain myths. SHIELD Turn on the iOS adult-website filter in one tap. iOS asks for Screen Time permission the first time. Then decide how hard it should be to turn off: a cool-off you choose in advance, or a code held by someone you trust. Shield selected apps until a time you pick; the shield lifts when you next open Ballast after that time. If you can't reach your trusted person, a 24-hour wait always works, so you're never trapped. Apple's filter can miss sites, so you can add your own: three free, up to 25 with Pro. This is friction, not a wall: the owner of a phone can undo it in Settings, and Ballast says so. A PLAN FOR THE MOMENT IT HITS Say what's going on in one tap and your own if-then plan is on the screen, next to your own reason. Then do the plan, breathe, or ride the wave: a full-screen swell that rises, crests and settles on a timer, with optional sound and a mode for putting the phone down. Open it from the app, Control Centre or Siri. The whole urge flow is free, always. A VOYAGE A SLIP CAN'T ERASE Clear days add up and never reset. Your current run is still there, but a slip is a small mark on a long route, not the end of it. After a slip you get one practical next step and a chance to change the plan. A slip is information. TODAY'S WATCH About two minutes a day: a check-in, what your own log says about today, and a course day. When your log shows a hardest window, Today gives you a heads-up before it opens, with your own plan. A COURSE THAT TEACHES SKILLS Thirty short days that use skills from CBT and ACT, each with one thing to do today. Plus a library that's honest about what research supports and where it's thin. SEE YOUR OWN PATTERNS Ballast Pro answers questions from what you log: when it's hardest, what sets it off, what seems to help and how the month is going. These describe your entries. They aren't predictions or proof of cause. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account or sign-up. Your plans, journal, reasons, check-ins and urge logs stay on your device, and Screen Time choices and the sites you add stay private to your phone. Lock the app with Face ID, and make a complete backup file whenever you like, then restore it later. Apple and RevenueCat process purchases and related identifiers; your personal entries are not sent to them. FREE, FOR GOOD The full urge flow, slip support, streak and clear days, check-ins and today's watch, the one-tap filter with three sites of your own, one if-then plan, one habit, week one of the course, all the reading about urges and slips, the toolbox, getting-help resources, app lock, export, backup and restore. BALLAST PRO Commitment lock, app shields, more of your own sites, unlimited plans and habits, Insights, the weekly review, the rest of the course and library, and full history. Choose monthly or yearly, or pay once for lifetime. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled in your Apple Account settings at least 24 hours before renewal. Ballast is a self-tracking and educational tool, not treatment. If this is affecting your work, relationships or safety, consider support from a qualified professional. Requires iOS 26 or later.
