Mindbrake: Screen Time Control

Mindbrake turns the urge to open social feeds into a quick challenge in math, physics, programming, art, geography, or pop culture. Before you enter an app you blocked yourself, you solve a short problem. Get it right, earn minutes. Miss it, wait for the next try. This is not parental control. It is voluntary self-monitoring for adults who want to reduce compulsive screen use and train their mind at the same time. HOW IT WORKS • You pick which apps to block with Family Controls. • When you try to open a blocked app a short learning challenge appears. • Correct → temporary unlock minutes. • Wrong → stay out and come back when you can focus. • You can also spend time-bank minutes without a challenge if you earned them earlier. FOCUS MODE • Pomodoro or total-block study sessions that keep your apps closed while you concentrate. • Automatic breaks between blocks, plus minutes and XP as a reward when you finish. LEARN, DON'T JUST ANSWER • Every level opens with a mini-lesson: concept, example, and tip before the challenge. • A progressive level map with chests, subject bosses, and rewards. • Set a daily earn limit on how many minutes you can bank to protect your time. CONTENT • Over 2,700 questions in English and Spanish. • Six subjects: math, physics, programming, art, geography, and pop culture. • Four challenge types: multiple choice, true/false, numeric answer, code output. WHAT IT IS FOR • Cutting doomscrolling without apps that only shame you. • Earning screen time through deliberate practice, not pure willpower. • Keeping a daily streak and seeing your real progress week by week. • Logging manual activities (studying, reading, taking an exam) and crediting yourself honestly. PRIVACY • Your data stays on your iPhone. We do not upload it to servers. • The apps you choose to block are an opaque iOS token. Mindbrake never sees which apps you picked. • No third-party trackers. No selling your information.
