About Ottly: Focus & App Blocker
Ottly locks your social apps all day — and lets you earn them back. Focus for 60 minutes, get 10 minutes of social time. Your credit grows while you work, you spend it in 10-minute windows, and whatever you don't use expires at midnight. Want a second lock? Add the weekly move rule. HOW IT WORKS • Pick the apps that eat your day — Apple's Screen Time locks them on-device • Tap Start focus, or schedule focus blocks that start on their own • Every 6 minutes of focus earns 1 minute of social time • Spend 10 minutes once you've earned them — the lock comes back by itself • Optional move rule: close your Move ring or log a 20-min workout once a week (Apple Health) to keep spending WHY IT WORKS • Scrolling becomes a reward, not a reflex • Credits expire at midnight, so there's nothing to hoard • Long sessions check you're still there, so the time you earn is real • Ottly the otter keeps your stone of earned minutes — and your streak PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account. No cloud. Your Screen Time and Health data stay on your iPhone. OTTLY MEMBERSHIP Ottly is a subscription app: weekly, or yearly with a 3-day free trial. Everything is included: unlimited focus blocks, Live Activities, widgets, stats and streaks. Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled in your App Store settings. Terms & privacy: links below.
