About PawLock: Screen Time Blocker
Willpower is no match for billion-dollar social media algorithms. 5 to 6 hours. That’s the average time you’ll spend looking at your phone today, lost in endless scrolling. Feeds, Reels, and notifications are scientifically engineered to hijack your focus. PawLock is built to give you your life, time, and attention back using Apple’s official iOS 18 Screen Time framework. Reclaim an average of 2+ hours of productive, deep focus time every single day. WHY PAWLOCK IS DIFFERENT: Tired of soft blockers you can bypass in two taps, or apps that charge predatory /year subscriptions? PawLock delivers uncompromising discipline: • UNBYPASSABLE STRICT MODE: Once a lock session starts, you cannot edit, disable, or delete it inside the app until time expires. No cheats, no excuses. • DOOMSCROLLING SHIELD: Put an impenetrable wall between you and Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and X. • SAFARI & WEBSITE BLOCKER: Blocks distracting web domains and adult content directly inside Safari. • SCHEDULED ROUTINES & POMODORO: Set automated blocking schedules for deep work, study sessions, or bedtime digital detox. • 100% PRIVATE & ON-DEVICE: Built strictly on Apple’s FamilyControls framework. Your personal browsing and app activity never leave your iPhone. TRANSPARENT PRICING & LIFETIME ACCESS No hidden traps. Enjoy a 7-day free trial on monthly plans, or unlock lifetime access with a single, one-time payment. Requirements: Requires Apple Screen Time authorization to block apps and websites. No account or sign-up needed. Privacy Policy: https://pawlock.app/privacy Terms of Use: https://pawlock.app/terms
