How FocusLock works.

Willpower gets tired. FocusLock replaces willpower with a system lock so you can do your best work.

01

Pick your distractions

Choose the apps that steal your attention — TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, or mobile games. You can block everything or select specific apps.

02

Start your ritual

Apple Screen Time shields your blocked apps at the operating system level. Turn on Hardcore Mode, and leaving the app fails your session instantly.

03

Grow your cyber garden

Every completed focus session grows a glowing digital tree in your garden. Quit early, and the tree dies. Build an entire forest of discipline.

The Full Arsenal

Built for serious deep work.

Every feature in FocusLock is designed to protect your attention from engineered digital distractions.

SCREEN TIME API

Hardware-level app shield

Not a soft reminder you swipe away. FocusLock uses native Apple Screen Time APIs to strictly lock Instagram, TikTok, and games at the OS level.

CYBER GARDEN

A living garden that keeps you honest

Turn your focused hours into glowing digital art. Complete sessions grow rare trees. Give up or switch apps, and your tree withers on your device.

HARDCORE MODE

Zero second grace period

For those who want zero excuses. Minimize or leave the app for even one second during a hardcore ritual, and your session fails immediately.

FAMILY LOCK

Parental PIN for kids’ devices

Lock distracting feeds and games on your child’s iPhone during homework or dinner. Protected by your 4-digit PIN so kids can’t bypass or delete it.

HABIT STREAKS

Streak saver & reminders

Set daily minute targets. Receive a gentle notification in the evening if your streak is in danger, and schedule automated focus sessions.

ANALYTICS

Monthly heatmap calendar

A GitHub-style contribution calendar of your concentration. Tag sessions by type (Deep Work, Study, Reading) and watch your habits compound.

Family Lock for Parents

Turn off Roblox at dinner.
Without having an argument.

Kids aren’t failing at discipline — they are up against algorithms engineered to keep them scrolling. FocusLock gives parents a system-level lock secured by a 4-digit PIN.

Protected by your secret PIN

Kids cannot delete the app, change settings, or use time-zone loopholes to unlock their feeds.

Block specific apps & games

Lock TikTok, Roblox, and YouTube while leaving calculator, school apps, and phone calls accessible.

Zero data collection, zero creepiness

We never track your kids, read messages, or collect location data. Everything stays on the device.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know.

Clear, straightforward answers about how FocusLock shields your apps, protects your privacy, and handles subscriptions.

FocusLock uses Apple's official Screen Time API (FamilyControls and ManagedSettings). When you start a focus session, iOS itself shields your selected apps. Unlike older apps that relied on VPNs or polite reminders, there is no 'Ignore limit' button and no way to swipe apps open until the timer completes.

Your privacy is not for sale.

FocusLock operates entirely on-device. We don't have servers logging your habits, we don't know what apps you use, and we never will.

100% On-Device Storage

Your focus logs, trees, and parental PIN never leave your iPhone.
