Most app blockers slam the door shut, so you fight them, snooze them, or uninstall them. Jeda takes a calmer path. When you open an app you tend to reach for on autopilot, it shows a brief, gentle pause first. You still get in. You just get in on purpose.

HOW IT WORKS

• Choose your impulse apps. Pick the few you open without thinking — social, video, news, whatever pulls you in.
• Set an active schedule. Tell Jeda which days and hours to walk with you. The rest of the time, it stays completely quiet.
• Get a calm daily budget. Jeda turns your real usage into a relaxed daily time pool, split into short sessions with a little recovery space between them.
• Ease down, gently. Each week Jeda recalculates your budget from how you actually used your phone, moving only at the pace you choose — and never below a 30-minute maintenance level.

BUILT FOR YOUR CALM SELF, NOT YOUR CRAVING SELF

The decision to cut back belongs to you when you're calm, not to you when you're craving. So the friction is asymmetric. Making your plan stricter takes effect right away. Loosening it — disabling a schedule, shrinking a window, removing an app — waits until tomorrow. Future-you stays protected from a moment of impulse, without ever feeling trapped.

And when you genuinely need a break, you can take the day off — a small, bounded number of times each month. No guilt, no fighting the app.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Your usage history is yours. Jeda reads only the full-day totals of the apps you select, and only to suggest a baseline. It never stores your history, never builds a behavior dashboard, and never sends your usage anywhere. Reflection check-ins stay on your device.

(Optional, anonymous crash reports and a simple daily ping help us keep Jeda stable. You can turn them off anytime, and your usage is never part of them.)

WHAT JEDA IS NOT

• Not a hard blocker. It adds a pause; it doesn't lock you out.
• Not a surveillance tool. No history, no charts of your every tap.
• Not a guilt machine. The tone stays calm, on purpose.

EARLY ACCESS

Jeda is in early access — everything is unlocked and free. Jeda Plus will arrive later to fund development, and Jeda Basic will always stay free and fully usable.

PERMISSIONS

Jeda asks for a capability only when a feature needs it, and explains each one in the app:
• Usage Access (optional) — reads only daily totals of your selected apps to suggest a baseline.
• Display over other apps — shows the calm pause screen over a selected app.
• Notifications & alarms — keep protection running and on time during your schedule.

Jeda does not use Accessibility services.
