Block distractions with a tap. Focus deeper, live better.
GROUND – Life, undistracted
Most screen time apps are way too easy to bypass.
GROUND pairs a minimalist NFC device with an iOS app, giving you a physical key to block out your distracting apps. One tap blocks distracting apps. Another tap unlocks them. No subscriptions. No sneaky workarounds.
How It Works
- Choose the apps that tend to steal your time and attention.
- Use your GROUND device to block them with one simple tap.
- Keep the device out of reach to avoid temptation and stay focused.
- When you're ready, tap your phone to the device again to unlock everything.
Features
Custom Blocking: Personalize which apps stay unblocked while you're grounded.
Session Stats: Track how long you stay grounded and how often you use the device.
Emergency Unlocks: Get up to 5 free unlocks without the GROUND device
The NFC-powered GROUND device is your physical “key”—no way to cheat it from your screen alone.
Why GROUND?
You’re in Control: GROUND is a reset button in your pocket. It gives your brain a break from the infinite scroll.
Built for Deep Work: Whether you’re studying, building, resting, or reconnecting, GROUND helps you make time for what matters.
Ultimate Privacy: None of your data leaves Ground. Your screen time info stays 100% on your device—forever.
One-Time Purchase: No subscriptions. No monthly fees.
