Overtime at your own rate. Reach the limit and the apps block – not a reminder
Read full description
You have set a screen time limit before. And tapped straight through it. That isn't a willpower problem – a reminder you can easily dismiss was never a limit.
Lock On removes the tap-through. Reach your daily limit – and the apps block. Want more time? It costs focus credits at an overtime rate you set in advance, back when you were thinking clearly.
WHY THIS ONE HOLDS
Digital Wellbeing asks nicely, then lets you tap Ignore.
Blockers can be switched off the second you want them off.
Lock On makes scrolling past your limit cost something real you chose in advance.
Tightening your terms takes effect immediately. Loosening them waits 48 hours, so a bad evening can't quietly rewrite the deal.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Pick your apps – or join a curated challenge in Discover that people are already running.
2. Set one daily limit for all of them combined.
3. Set your overtime rate – what 15 more minutes should cost?
4. Pick a finish line – a week, a month, or your own end date.
5. Lock on!

ABOUT FOCUS CREDITS
Credits are your cushion for the days that go sideways. Going up to your limit doesn't take them from you – buying overtime does, and only when you choose to. Earn them on clean days and referrals, or top up for a bigger cushion. Runway shows how much overtime your balance still covers.
PERMISSIONS
Lock On needs Usage access to measure time in the apps you pick, and Display over other apps so it can block them when your daily limit runs out. It tracks new usage only for those apps, and only against the limit you set. It cannot read your messages, photos, or browsing history.
