About Bracer: App Blocker, Watch Key
Your watch is the key to your social apps. Pick the apps that pull you in. Bracer puts a shield over them on your iPhone, and the only thing that opens them is a tap on your watch. The watch gives you a few minutes of scrolling, then the shield comes back on its own. No passcode. No “ignore limit for today”. Nothing to type your way around. If your watch isn’t with you, the apps stay closed. HOW IT WORKS • Choose the apps that eat your time. Any app, or whole categories at once. • They rest behind a shield on your iPhone. • Tap Unlock on your watch: the apps open for the minutes you chose, ten by default. Time in other apps doesn’t count. • When the minutes run out, the shield returns by itself. Want more? Ask your wrist again. A STRICTER KEY, WHEN YOU WANT ONE • Lock for… an hour, three hours, or until morning. No cancel, not even from the watch. • Key strictness: every key turns at once, or each one waits longer than the last, or three a day and then nothing until 7:00. NUMBERS THAT ARE ON YOUR SIDE • How long your apps have been resting, live, on your phone and on your watch face. • How often you reached for a resting app, and the keys you used, today and this week. • Your week: your longest rest, reaches day by day, which apps you reached for, and how often your watch said not yet. NOTHING LEAVES YOUR PHONE No account, no servers, no analytics. Bracer uses Apple’s Screen Time on your own device and never learns which apps you picked or how long you use them. FREE AND PRO Free rests one app. Bracer Pro rests as many apps and categories as you like and adds Lock for…, Key strictness and Your week. Pro is a monthly or yearly subscription with a free trial, or a one-time purchase. Prices are shown in the app before you decide. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period and are charged to your Apple Account. Manage or cancel them in Settings › Apple Account › Subscriptions. Terms of use: apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula Bracer needs an iPhone with iOS 18 or later and an Apple Watch with watchOS 11 or later. Without a watch there is no key, so nothing gets locked.
