## How it works

1. Answer a few quick questions: Tell Lupiko what you want to change and when you usually lose control: mornings, work hours, evenings or late at night.
2. Get your personal plan: Lupiko suggests a daily block for your riskiest hours and shows how much time you can win back every day.
3. Pick your apps. Lupiko guards them.: Choose apps, whole categories or websites with Apple’s app picker. Open one during a block and Lupiko’s block screen gently sends you back to real life.

## Features

- Daily block: Block the apps you choose, when you choose. Same time every day, or all day when you need it.
- Focus now: Need an hour of deep work? Block your picked apps right away, even outside your daily block.
- Brain score: One simple number based on your phone habits, with Lupiko showing how you’re doing. A habit score, not a medical test.
- Your real numbers: Daily average, pickups, where your time goes and how much you saved this week.
- Private by design: Apple draws your Screen Time numbers on your device. They never reach our servers.
- In your language: Fully translated into English, German and Lithuanian. It follows your iPhone’s language.
- Keep your apps: No need to delete anything. Your apps stay, they just can’t ambush you at 1 a.m.
- No “ignore” button: Lupiko’s block screen has one button: Close app. Getting in means a conscious choice, not a reflex.

## Good to know

- Lupiko is for adults who want to scroll less on their own phone. It is not a parental control app.
- The brain score is a habit score based on phone use. It is not a medical measurement.
- Lupiko uses Apple’s Screen Time framework (Family Controls). Screen Time data stays on the device.
- Lupiko is iPhone and iPad only for now (no Android version).
