Gatekeeper: Unlock with Intent

Justify your screen time

Only for iPhone

iPhone

If you've ever picked up your phone to do one thing and lost an hour to scrolling, Gatekeeper is for you. You choose which apps to block. When you want to open one, you explain what you need to do. If your answer is specific and makes sense, you get timed access for a few minutes. If it's vague, Gatekeeper tells you what was missing and reminds you of the goal you set when you downloaded the app. That's the whole idea: a two-second pause between the urge and the app. Most of the time, that's enough to break the autopilot. Gatekeeper helps you build better habits, stay on track, and feel proud of how you spend your time.

Version 4.0 brings you a smarter Gatekeeper. The scoring system now recognizes more real-life reasons, catches vague excuses faster, and rewards you for using the app less. Responses are shorter, clearer, and won't send mixed signals anymore. History resets every day so you start fresh each morning.
