Screenwage: Earn Screen Time

Earn your screen time.

Screenwage locks the apps that eat your day and lets you earn your way back in. Focus, and your hourglass fills with grains of sand. Spend them to unlock Instagram, TikTok, YouTube or any app you chose. One grain buys one minute.

HOW IT WORKS
• Pick the apps and websites to lock using Apple's Screen Time. Screenwage never sees which ones, only how many.
• Lock in for a focus session. Verified focus pours grains into your hourglass.
• Spend grains to unlock your apps for as long as you like. When the time runs out, they lock again.
• Lock early and every unused minute pours back into your glass.

YOU SET THE EXCHANGE RATE
Start where you are. Choose how many grains a focused minute earns, from Generous (1 minute of focus = 3 grains) to Strict (4 minutes of focus = 1 grain). Screenwage recommends a rate from your own goal. Tighten it any time; loosening waits 24 hours, so a weak moment can't rewrite the rules. Sessions of 50 minutes or more earn a quarter extra.

FOCUS DOCK
Place a glowing focus zone on your desk with the camera, set your phone down, and the session starts by itself. Pick it up early and earning pauses and an alarm rings. Put it back and you carry on. Prefer something simpler? Background and Stay Put modes work too.

THE HOURGLASS
Your balance lives in a red-sand hourglass. Watch it fill as you focus and run while your apps are open. Every session prints a receipt of what you earned.

KEEP YOURSELF HONEST
• A daily spending limit caps how much you can unlock
• Quiet hours for mornings and bedtime
• Optional Face ID before grains are spent
• A safety switch that turns blocking off instantly when you really need it

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
The apps you lock never leave your iPhone. Camera and motion are processed on your device and never saved or sent. No ads, no tracking, and nothing is sold.
