LOCKD - Block Distractions

We built Lockd because we were spending way too much time on our phones. Scrolling when we didn’t mean to. Checking apps out of habit. Missing the moments right in front of us. We didn’t want to delete everything or go off the grid. We just wanted something that made it easier to disconnect.

How Lockd works:
- Select the apps that pull you in.

- Tap the Lockd Pod to block them.

- Enjoy your time without distractions chasing you.

Your apps stay locked until you choose to unlock them.

Why Lockd?
- Reduce your screen time effortlessly

- Block what distracts you, not what you need

- Physically separate you from attention traps

- Reclaim hours of lost time without deleting apps

- No tracking. No subscriptions. Full privacy.

Use Lockd to:
- Focus deeply at work or while studying

- Enjoy phone-free evenings or mornings

- Sleep better without endless scrolling

- Feel present at dinner, with family, or in nature
