## Description

Your phone should not be the first thing that takes your attention each morning.

Daybreak automatically blocks the distracting apps you choose overnight and keeps them blocked after you wake. Dedicate time in the morning to complete a focus session before those apps become available for the day.

HOW DAYBREAK WORKS

1. Choose your distractions

Select the social media, video, news, games, or other apps that tend to cloud your mornings.

2. Set your schedule

Choose when your apps lock for the night and when your morning focus period becomes available. Daybreak applies the schedule automatically, without requiring you to remember to turn it on.

3. Focus before distractions

When you wake up, your selected apps remain blocked until you complete your chosen focus session. After completing it, your apps become available for the rest of the day.

BUILT FOR PROTECTED MORNINGS

• Automatic overnight and morning app blocking
• A clear morning streak
• Emergency access for unexpected situations
• Live Activities and Dynamic Island support
• A simple schedule that runs automatically
• Screen Time controls powered by Apple’s Family Controls framework

FRICTION WITH A PURPOSE

Daybreak does not try to compete with distracting apps for your attention. It creates a clear boundary before the morning begins: focus first, then regain access.

Emergency access remains available, but it includes deliberate limits so that it stays an exception rather than becoming the default.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Your schedule, selected apps, and focus history are stored on your device. Daybreak does not upload your selected-app information to a remote database.

An account is optional. Daybreak can be used without signing in.

EARLY ACCESS

Every part of Daybreak is available free during its launch while the app is refined with early users.

Optional one-time early-support purchases grant lifetime access to Daybreak’s current and future features. There is no recurring subscription during this early-access release.

Daybreak requires Screen Time permission to block the apps you select. Permission can be removed from your device settings.
