TapLock - Block Apps

TapLock turns a physical NFC card into the only key that unlocks your apps.

Tap your card to lock your iPhone's distracting apps behind a Screen Time
shield. To get them back, you have to physically tap the card again. The card
has to be in your hand. There are no shortcuts.

HOW IT WORKS
Choose which apps to block, then tap "Lock Now"
Apps stay blocked until you tap your registered NFC card to the top of your phone
Need a break? Pause the session and it picks up right where you left off
Set a timer to auto-unlock after a focus session ends

WHAT CARDS WORK
Any NFC card you already carry: transit cards, hotel keys, student IDs, office
keycards, or cheap NFC stickers. If your iPhone can read it, TapLock can use it.

FEATURES
NFC card unlock, tap to lock, tap to unlock
Timed locks with auto-unlock countdown
Pause and resume a session without losing your remaining time
Custom blocking profiles, block specific apps and websites or allow only a selected few
Lock Now widget and Control Center button, lock in one tap without opening the app
Siri and Shortcuts, start a lock by voice or build automations by time, place or Focus
Multiple cards supported, each with its own name
Block app deletion while locked so you can't cheat by uninstalling
Session stats, see your total focus time and how long your last session ran
Live Activity and Dynamic Island timer visible from your lock screen
Your cards and settings sync across your devices via iCloud
Remote Key, unlock a family iPad or second iPhone by tapping your card on your own iPhone
Native iPad app with a landscape layout

REMOTE KEY AND IPAD
Lock a family iPad or a second iPhone, then open it by tapping your card on
your own iPhone. Both devices just need the same Apple ID. iPads have no NFC
reader, so they pair as a kept device and are always opened from your iPhone.

EMERGENCY ACCESS
A 6-digit PIN is available if you lose your card. It works, but it is
deliberately slow, so you will want to keep your card nearby.

TapLock does not replace your iPhone's lock screen. It uses Apple's Screen
Time framework to shield apps while your phone stays accessible for calls
and emergencies.
