Description

Fence blocks the apps you choose — for one small one-time price, forever.

BUILD FENCES
Pick apps and categories with Apple's private picker (Fence never sees which apps you chose — the choice stays inside iOS). Give the fence a schedule like "weekdays 9–18", a daily time budget like "30 minutes, then it's closed", or keep it just for focus sessions.

FOCUS IN TWO TAPS
Choose a length, raise the fence. A countdown runs in the Dynamic Island and on your Lock Screen. In Locked mode there is no way out until the timer ends — deleting apps is disabled too.

STRICTNESS THAT MATCHES YOUR DAY
• Gentle — pause, breathe, then a 5-minute pass if you still want in
• Strict — three 5-minute passes a day, spend them wisely
• Locked — no way through until the fence lifts

HONEST NUMBERS
"You hit a fence 23 times today and turned back 21 times." A weekly chart shows your progress. Counted on this device only — Fence never knows which app it was.

AN ESCAPE HATCH, DONE RIGHT
Once per day, Emergency unlock opens even a locked fence — after a 60-second wait and a written reason. Enough for real emergencies, too slow for impulses.

PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE
No account, no server, no analytics. Fence cannot see which apps you block. Everything stays on your iPhone.

PAY ONCE, OWN IT
One fence and one daily focus session are free, forever. Fence Forever — a single one-time purchase — unlocks unlimited fences, schedules, time budgets and all strictness modes. No subscription. No trial that quietly converts.
