Just checking one thing? We’ve been there. Hood helps you choose when to scroll and when to stop, leaving a little more time for whatever matters to you. Sometimes you open an app to check one thing and stay longer than you meant to. Hood helps you leave a little room for the rest of your day. Choose the apps you tend to get lost in, give yourself some time to use them, and have a clear place to stop. A little space before you open an app Lock keeps an app visible with a screen that asks you to pause. Block hides an app while protection is on. Open Hood when you want to use it again. A stopping point of your own Choose 15–60 minutes of temporary access. When time is up, Hood locks or hides the app again. You can end access early, too. If you ask Hood to start another session soon after one ends, a short breathing pause gives you a moment to decide. Small moments, little stars Eligible sessions can earn paper stars. Keep them in your jar, then scatter them into your own night sky. Your collection can sync through your private iCloud storage, so those little reminders can stay with you. A clearer picture of your day See your app use today or over the past seven days, and take a closer look at each app. No scores to chase—just a little perspective on where your time goes. Start with a little. Make room for more. The free plan includes one Lock slot, temporary access and its breathing pause, usage reports, your existing star collection, and up to one eligible paper star per day on each device. Hood Pro gives you four Lock slots in total, four Block slots, standalone breathing practice, and no daily limit on eligible paper-star rewards. Monthly and annual subscriptions offer the same benefits. Prices and any available trial are shown before purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled; manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings. Getting started Hood works on iPhone with iOS 18 or later, in English and Simplified Chinese. There is no Hood account to create. Screen Time access is needed for app protection and usage reports. Permission changes and iOS background delays can affect protection and when it returns; some apps and device configurations cannot be restricted. Your protection choices are stored on your device. Stars can sync through iCloud. Firebase provides crash diagnostics and app configuration, and PostHog provides product analytics using a random installation identifier and limited interaction data. Product events do not include PIN digits, selected app names or the contents of protected apps. App Store builds do not enable session replay. Our privacy policy explains more.

A few thoughtful improvements to help you settle into your own rhythm. • A gentler start. We’ve refined the welcome screens, with clearer text, smoother transitions, and an invitation to tilt your phone and watch the stars tumble. • A clearer look at planned app time. The updated walkthrough shows you how to choose a session, how your star changes along the way, and how protection returns when time is up. • Stars for time spent within your plan. Sessions now need to last at least five minutes to earn a star. Shorter sessions won’t use up your daily star allowance, and the stars you’ve already collected are yours to keep. • An easier way back. Swipe back more smoothly from your star jar and usage reports, then carry on from Home. • About, closer at hand. Find version details, our privacy policy, and terms of service together in About, now in the side menu. • A smoother welcome to Pro. We fixed an issue that could leave you on the purchase screen after a successful purchase, and tidied up how plan cards look while a purchase is processing. Thanks for making a little room in your day for Hood.
