iPhone
One window. The apps you name stay shut until it ends and your own reason is what meets you when you reach for them. No account, nothing leaves your phone.
You meant to check one thing. An hour later, the evening is gone.
Latch shuts the apps that take your time — on a schedule you set, at a firmness you choose — and keeps them shut until the window ends. No account. No tracking. Nothing leaves your iPhone.
SET ONE UP IN A MINUTE
A window is a stretch of time: mornings, deep work, evenings, the hour before bed. Pick the apps and sites it closes, pick the days, done. It runs itself from then on.
CHOOSE HOW HARD IT HOLDS
• Soft — take a breath, say why you're opening it, get in. Trains intention.
• Latched — blocked. You hold a few keys each week, and each one buys five minutes.
• Bolted — no key, no early exit. It ends when the window ends.
YOUR OWN WORDS ON THE BLOCK SCREEN
Reach for a blocked app and you don't meet a generic wall. You meet the sentence you wrote about why you wanted the time back — and some days, a window you already kept.
WHAT YOU GET BACK, COUNTED HONESTLY
• Your real Screen Time trend, this week against last
• Hours recovered from windows you actually held — nothing estimated
• Every reach that didn't turn into a scroll
• A weekly review of the keys you spent, and the reasons you gave
BUILT TO FORGIVE
A missed window doesn't reset anything. Monthly graces absorb the bad days, because a streak that punishes one hard evening is a streak people quit. No leaderboards, no points, nobody sees it but you.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No sign-in, no analytics, no ads, no tracking. Your windows, your history and your reason stay on your iPhone — Latch has no server to send them to.
FREE, FOREVER

Latch Pro is $34.99 a year with one week free, or $4.99 a week with three days free. The app shows the price in your own currency before you buy. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel any time in Settings → your Apple Account → Subscriptions.
Latch needs Screen Time (Family Controls) permission to block anything. Website blocking works in Safari only — iOS gives no third-party app a way to reach other browsers.
