About Anchor Morning
Win your morning! Stop snoozing. Stop doomscrolling. The alarm you can't turn off from bed: get up, scan a code in another room, and the apps you scroll the most stay locked. I built Anchor because my phone was winning my mornings. WHY IT WORKS At 6am, willpower is still asleep. Anchor swaps it for one simple physical task: get up, walk across the room, scan. Getting out of bed stops being a debate. THE ALARM • Rings loud through Silent mode and Focus • Choose 0, 1 or 2 snoozes. Your call, set ahead of time • Tap "I'm Up" and the app opens, so it won't quietly turn itself off • Optional Quiet Walk: a short grace period to walk to your code before the alarm comes back SCAN TO WAKE • Use any barcode or QR code you already own • Pick something across the room, out of reach from bed • Ideas: a toothpaste tube, a coffee box, a shampoo bottle, a vitamin jar, the back of a book • Register your code once. Scanning it is what ends the alarm • Anchor Tags (NFC) are coming soon. Pairing already works in the app: place the tag across the room and tap your phone to it to dismiss A REAL APP BLOCKER Anchor uses Screen Time to lock the apps that steal your time. • Block any apps you choose: social, games, mail, anything • Group apps and block them on your own schedules: mornings, work hours, bedtime, deep focus • Block on wake-up: the apps you doomscroll stay locked until you scan • Lock Now starts a block instantly whenever you need to focus • Two strictness levels: scan to unlock, or Hold Fast, which can't be unlocked early at all • Optional Hardcore Mode stops apps from being deleted while a block is active, so backing out is much harder • Unlock the same way you wake: scan your code FAIR BY DESIGN • Emergency override: a limited number each month, behind confirmations, for the mornings life happens • No ads. No account. Your data stays on your device. PLANS • Try any subscription free for 3 days • Weekly $2.99 · Monthly $6.99 · Yearly $39.99 (best value) • Lifetime $79.99: one-time purchase, no subscription Prices in USD; see the app for pricing in your region.
