Defta turns your phone from a time sink into a time bank.
Block the apps that drain your day — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat, X — and earn screen time back, minute by minute, through things that actually compound: workouts, languages, books, real-world quests.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• Block apps. Pick what to keep out of your day. We use Apple's Screen Time framework — nothing leaves your device.
• Earn screen time by:
– Doing real pushups, squats, planks (the camera counts your reps)
– Learning Spanish, French, or German (90-day programs, no fluff)
– Sharpening your speaking (90 days of daily voice exercises)
– Reading proven psychology books with built-in flashcards
– Completing side quests in the real world (talk to a stranger, climb stairs, journal 5 minutes)
• Verify with AI. Your camera proves you did the workout, read the book, or did the quest. No honor system, no cheating yourself.
• Side Quests. 37 real-world challenges across 6 difficulty tiers, from "compliment a stranger" to "climb a stair you've never climbed before". Earn minutes; build a life worth not scrolling through.
• Speaking 2.0. A 90-day daily program built like a coach: pick a prompt, record yourself, get an instant feedback score on filler words, pace, and clarity.
WHY DEFTA WORKS
Most habit apps make you choose between willpower and entertainment. Defta aligns them. The cost of unlocking your dopamine apps is a small deposit into the version of yourself you've been postponing. Read 5 pages → 15 minutes. Do 6 pushups → 10 minutes. Compliment a stranger → 50 minutes.
You don't fight your phone. You charge it.
THE SCIENCE
Defta's programs are built on real research — Stanford psychiatrist Dr. Anna Lembke on dopamine, FBI counterintelligence analyst Joe Navarro on behavior, Cialdini on influence, BJ Fogg on tiny habits, and Toastmasters' 100-year speaking framework. Every source is listed in-app under Profile → The Science.
HEALTH AND WELLNESS DISCLAIMER
Defta is a habit and lifestyle app, not a medical device or healthcare provider. The workouts, breathing prompts, speaking drills, side quests, and book summaries are for general fitness, motivation, and self-improvement purposes only. Defta does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult a qualified physician or licensed healthcare professional before starting any new exercise routine, modifying your fitness habits or diet, or making any decision that affects your physical or mental health. Stop using the app and seek medical attention if you experience pain, dizziness, shortness of breath, or any other symptom while exercising.
PRICING
Defta is free to try with a limited budget. The full experience — unlimited earning, all 5 categories, all 37 side quests, AI verification — is unlocked with a Defta Pro subscription. Auto-renews until canceled in iOS Settings. Cancel anytime.
PRIVACY
Defta works on-device. We don't sell your data. We don't track you across apps. Your name, your photos, your reps stay on your phone — except when the camera sends a frame to our AI verifier, which we forget the moment we send back the verdict.
