How it works:
1. Choose which apps to block and set your schedule.
2. Pick any QR code or barcode as your unlock key — a book on your shelf, a code at your desk, anything.
3. When you want to unblock, you have to physically go scan it. That friction is what makes Recode work.
Why it's different:
Other screen time apps let you bypass limits with a single tap. Recode doesn't. The physical requirement of scanning a code creates real resistance between you and your distracting apps. You can't cheat from the couch.
Track your progress with Streaks:
Build a daily streak by keeping your break time under 30 minutes. Watch your calendar fill with green as you take back control of your habits.
Built from personal experience:
I built Recode because I was losing myself in endless scrolling — distracted all day, drained at night, ashamed of how little I got done. Even in its demo version, the simple act of requiring a scan to unblock completely shifted my habits. Knowing I couldn't unblock until I got home kept me off my phone. Over time, I reclaimed focus, confidence, and the satisfaction of being productive.
