About ShiftRoot: Wake, Focus, Sleep
Wake up on time. Stay inside your screen time limit. Be in bed when you said you would. ShiftRoot turns those three habits into one daily streak. WAKE: NO MORE SNOOZE Your alarm stops only when you move. Choose your wake-up mission: • 7 push-ups, counted by your camera • Arm and neck rotations, counted by your camera • 45 steps • Solve math problems Room too dark for the camera? One tap switches to steps or math. The camera counts on your iPhone and records nothing. FOCUS: LIMITS THAT HOLD Pick the apps that eat your day with Apple's Screen Time and set a daily limit. You get a heads-up as you get close. When you reach it, those apps lock. Want more time? Earn it by reading: • Read a short article for 2 minutes and get 15 more minutes • The next unlock costs 3 minutes, then 5 • After three reads, that's it for the day A quick question at the end checks you actually read it. If you really need an app, the override is always there and never hidden. It costs your streak, and it tells you so. Once a week, an emergency pass gives you 25 minutes with no questions asked. READING WORTH YOUR TIME Short original articles on psychology, science, money, health, technology and more, matched to the topics you choose. SLEEP: ON TIME Set your bedtime and your apps lock for the night, until 6 AM. Calls, your Global Whitelist, your Night Essentials and ShiftRoot itself keep working. Wind down with 4-7-8 breathing and sleep sounds that keep playing after you lock your phone, then see your nights on a calendar. ONE STREAK FOR ALL THREE A day counts when you finished your wake-up mission, stayed inside your limit and were in bed on time. There's nothing to claim. Sundays are off by default, and one bad night never costs you the days behind it. Sign in with Apple or Google to join the optional world ranking. Your streak counts on your iPhone either way. SEE WHAT CHANGED Weekly and monthly insights show how each habit is going, the articles you read and the minutes you earned back. Share your monthly report card when you're proud of it. YOUR SCREEN TIME STAYS ON YOUR IPHONE Apple's Screen Time never tells ShiftRoot which apps you chose or how long you used them, and that information never leaves your phone. No ads. You can delete your account from inside the app at any time. SUBSCRIPTION ShiftRoot requires a subscription. Choose Weekly, Monthly or Yearly. Weekly starts with a 3-day free trial; Monthly and Yearly start with a 1-week free trial. • Payment is charged to your Apple Account when the free trial ends • Your subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period • Renewal is charged within the 24 hours before the current period ends • Manage or cancel any time in your Apple Account settings ONE NOTE ON ALARMS On iOS 26 and later, ShiftRoot's alarm uses Apple's own alarm system. On earlier iOS versions, don't close ShiftRoot from the app switcher at night, and set a backup alarm for anything critical.

What’s new
Version 1.1 · Updated October 14, 2026
ShiftRoot 1.1 is a big one. • A fresh look everywhere, in ShiftRoot's three colours: orange for waking up, green for focus, blue for sleep. • New onboarding that starts with what's really getting in your way — endless scrolling, snoozing, phone-first mornings, late nights — and shows how ShiftRoot fixes each one. • Your plan, made for you by name. On iPhones with Apple Intelligence it's fine-tuned on your iPhone; nothing leaves the device. • Add your name and a profile photo. • New dials for your daily limit, alarm and bedtime, with a soft click as you turn them. The bedtime and alarm dials show your whole night. • A redesigned wake-up alarm, missions and morning screens. • The alarm doesn't give up: stop it without finishing your mission and it rings again after 1 minute, then 40 seconds, 20 seconds, and every 10 seconds until you're up. • Push-up and arm-and-neck missions in a clean camera card, with a big count and a flash for every rep. • On iOS 17 and 18, the backup alarm now rings through Do Not Disturb and Sleep Focus. • Home Screen widgets for your daily limit, your streak and tonight's bedtime. • Read to earn minutes, now with a celebration when they unlock. • Switch your limit off and the sadhu on the Focus tab picks up his phone. • A new app icon and a smoother opening animation. • Win all three — wake up, stay in your limit, sleep on time — and the next morning your three colours come together into a streak. • A clearer subscription screen with your trial dates, and an optional reminder before the trial ends. • Fixes and polish throughout.
