Open an app for one thing, then realize far more time has passed than you intended? StayBrief turns the habit of opening apps on autopilot into short, intentional sessions. Protect one app free forever, with unlimited sessions. HOW IT WORKS • Choose an app you tend to open on autopilot. • Before entering, choose what you’re there to do: Reply, Post, Find, or Take a Break. • Choose a session length: 3, 5, or 10 minutes. • The timer starts immediately and keeps running even if you leave the app. • Near the end, StayBrief gives you one quiet heads-up. • When time is up, protection turns back on. Finished early? End the session at any time. WHY STAYBRIEF StayBrief is a simpler alternative to complex schedules, strict focus modes, and dashboards full of charts. One reason. One timer. Then protection returns. FREE FOREVER Protect one app and start as many sessions as you like with the four built-in reasons. The free version also includes the finish-line warning, the option to end early, and the last seven days of history. STAYBRIEF PRO Protect more apps, use 15-minute or custom session lengths, create your own reasons, and keep your full history with weekly insights. PRIVATE BY DESIGN StayBrief uses Apple’s Screen Time controls. It cannot read your messages, posts, searches, passwords, photos, or anything inside another app. No account. No server. Your app choices and session history stay on your iPhone. Go in for one thing. Come out on time. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
