FlowLock is a focus timer and app blocker built for students, professionals, and anyone tired of losing hours to phone distractions. Set a session, block the apps that pull you in, and do the deep work that matters.

WHY FLOWLOCK

Most focus apps just count down a timer while your phone keeps tempting you. FlowLock is different. The moment you start a session, your selected apps are locked behind a full-screen block screen. No bypass, no "just five minutes" — until your timer runs out, the distractions are gone.

Pair that with streak tracking, weekly statistics, and a clean dark-mode interface, and you have a complete system for building real focus habits and beating procrastination.

CORE FEATURES

- FOCUS TIMER
Set any session length in minutes or hours. The countdown runs as a background service, so it keeps going even when your screen is off or you switch apps. Pause and resume anytime. A live notification shows progress, time remaining, and motivational messages.

- APP BLOCKER
Pick the apps that distract you most — social media, games, messaging, video — and FlowLock blocks them for the entire focus session. When you try to open a blocked app, a full-screen overlay appears with the app's icon, name, your remaining time, and a motivational message. Tap "Go Back" to return home.

- BLOCKLIST MANAGEMENT
Every installed app is shown with its real name, icon, and category. Toggle apps on or off with one tap. Search to find apps fast. A banner shows quick-view chips of everything currently blocked.

- FOCUS STATISTICS
A weekly bar chart highlights your daily focus minutes. Track total focus hours with week-over-week changes. See your best day, average session length, and a 28-day streak heatmap.

- STREAK TRACKING
Complete a session each day to grow your streak. Your current streak appears on the home screen, in your stats, and on every session-complete screen.

- PERSONALIZED HOME
A time-aware greeting welcomes you with your name. See today's session count, total focused minutes, current streak, and how many apps are currently blocked.

- SMART NOTIFICATIONS
The timer notification shows live progress with motivational subtitles that shift as your session moves forward — halfway encouragement, final-stretch alerts, and personalized messages.

- SOUNDS & HAPTICS
Subtle audio cues and vibration patterns mark session start and complete. Toggle them off if you prefer silence.

- THEME SUPPORT
Dark mode, light mode, or follow your system setting. Every screen reacts instantly.

- CUSTOMIZABLE SESSIONS
Choose from preset durations or enter a custom time in minutes or hours. Your preference is saved.

WHO IT'S FOR

- Students preparing for exams or long study sessions
- Professionals doing deep work, coding, writing, or design
- Anyone trying to reduce screen time and phone addiction
- People building a daily focus or study habit
- Remote workers fighting constant notification overload

BUILD A DEEP WORK HABIT

Focus is a skill, and like any skill it grows with practice. FlowLock turns every session into a small win. Watch your streak climb. Watch your weekly hours grow. Watch your average session length stretch as your concentration gets stronger.

PERMISSIONS, EXPLAINED

FlowLock asks for a few permissions to work properly:

- Accessibility Service — to detect when you open a blocked app and show the block overlay. FlowLock only uses this to enforce focus sessions. We do not collect or transmit your screen content.
- Notifications — for the timer, progress, and reminders.
- Usage Stats — to power your weekly statistics and heatmap.

Your data stays on your device.
