Pact
Scroll less. Achieve more.
Pact puts a lock on the apps that eat your day. Pick the ones that pull you in, give yourself a daily budget of unlocks, and every time you reach for one you have to decide — on purpose — how long you actually need. Hard Mode takes the decision away entirely.

Built and shipping today.
Not a roadmap — every feature below is in the app right now.
Session limits
Give yourself a set number of unlocks a day. Spend one and you choose how long you need before the app shields itself again.
Schedules
Recurring focus windows that block apps on their own — Morning Clarity, Deep Focus and Good Night's Rest come ready to use.
App limits
A daily time budget per app, set for every day, weekdays only, or just the weekend.
Hard Mode
Turn off early unlocks and the timer is the timer. No talking your way out of it halfway through.
Code to change
Editing your restricted apps can require typing a random code first, so the impulse to loosen the rules meets some resistance.
Streaks & insights
Unlocks, minutes unlocked and your day streak, all on one screen so progress is obvious.
Also included
- Custom lock-screen messages
- 5-minute warning before lock

How it works
- 1
Pick your distractions
Grant Screen Time access once, then choose the apps that pull you in most.
- 2
Set the rules
A daily unlock budget, a recurring schedule, a time limit — or all three at once.
- 3
Meet the friction
Reach for a restricted app and Pact asks how long you need. With Hard Mode on, it doesn't ask at all.
