## Description

Beacon helps you put your phone down and get meaningful work done—with optional accountability from people you trust.

FREE FOCUS TOOLS
• Timed focus sessions — pick 25, 45, or 60 minutes (or custom) and block distracting apps with Apple's Screen Time
• Recurring scheduled sessions — set daily or weekly focus windows that start automatically
• Focus streak & stats — track completed sessions, minutes, and how consistently you show up
• Home Screen widget & Siri Shortcuts — start focus from your widget or with a voice command
• Custom shield screen — a calm reminder when you try to open a blocked app

FOCUS WITH FRIENDS (BEACON PRO)
Upgrade to Beacon Pro to unlock social accountability:
• Circles — create or join private groups with friends
• Peer Beacons — send a focus request to a friend; they can join your session
• Monk Mode — open-ended, no-timer deep focus, solo or as a challenge with friends
• Shared schedules — invite circle members to recurring focus windows
• Circle leaderboard — compare streaks, completed sessions, and focus minutes

Beacon Pro is optional. Personal timed focus and your own scheduled sessions work without a subscription.

SUBSCRIPTION
Beacon Pro is $5.99/month (price may vary by region). Eligible new subscribers may start with a 7-day free trial. Payment is charged to your Apple ID. Subscription auto-renews unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions.

REQUIREMENTS
Beacon uses Apple's Screen Time APIs to block apps you choose. You'll be asked to grant Screen Time permission during setup. Beacon does not see your app usage history—only the apps you select to block.
