BLOCKS THAT HOLD
• Schedules: pick apps with Apple's private picker, set the hours and days, and they lock on time, even with Holdfast closed.
• Block now: one tap blocks your chosen apps and sites until you unlock.
• Site rules: block social media, shopping, gambling, news or adult sites in every browser, plus any site you add.
UNBLOCKING IS HARD ON PURPOSE
• Easy unlock: confirm and it lifts.
• Hard unlock: type a long code, then wait five minutes.
• Timer lock (Pro): no early unlock at all.
• Partner lock (Pro): only a friend's code unlocks early.
• Strict mode (Pro): no app can be deleted, Holdfast included, until you unblock.
PROVEN, NOT PROMISED
• Test my block: check in seconds that the block screen really appears.
• Home shows this week's proof: the hours your blocks and schedules kept you protected.
• Every time you open Holdfast, it checks that your schedules are registered and your site rules are on, and tells you exactly what to fix if not.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Built on Apple's Screen Time controls. No VPN, no account, no tracking.
• Holdfast never sees which apps you pick; Apple's picker keeps them private.
FAIR PRICING
• A real free tier: one schedule, Block now, site rules, easy and hard unlock.
• Holdfast Pro: more schedules, timer and partner locks, strict mode.
• $29.99 a year with a 3-day free trial, $9.99 a month, or $59.99 once. No weekly plans.
GOOD TO KNOW
• Site blocking works in every browser on your iPhone, Safari and Chrome included, through Apple's Screen Time filter.
• The Safari extension is optional: it only adds longer site lists in Safari.
• For the strongest lock, set a Screen Time passcode you don't know (a friend can set it). Holdfast shows you how.
• A timer lock lifts the next time you open Holdfast after the timer ends.
