Phones down.
Squad up.
Whoever breaks, pays.

Pact is the screen-time app you use with your mates. Set a pact together — no TikTok after 11, an hour a day, whatever you agree. Break it, and everyone gets the notification.

How it works

Willpower is weak. Group chats are forever.

Every screen-time app trusts you to police yourself. That's why you deleted the last one. Pact makes your mates the police.

1

Start a squad

Invite 3–8 mates. Agree the pact together: daily scroll budget, phone-free hours, app blackouts — your rules.

2

Pact locks your apps

Real blocking, same tech as the strict focus apps. The difference: switching it off isn't private anymore.

3

Break it, everyone knows

Bail at 1am and the squad gets the alert — with a screenshot-worthy amount of shame. Hold the line and the squad streak grows. Optional stakes: loser buys the coffees.

Every Sunday

The Rot Report.

Your week, exposed. Who locked in, who rotted, whose 2am scroll session dragged the squad down. Made to be posted.

Questions

Fair asks.

Does it actually block apps, or just guilt-trip me?

Both. Pact uses Apple's Screen Time technology — the same real blocking as the strict focus apps. The social layer exists because blocking alone has a fatal flaw: you can always switch it off in private. With Pact, switching it off isn't private.

What if my mates don't want to pay?

They don't have to. Squads, blocking, streaks and the Rot Report are free, full stop. Premium adds strict mode, custom rules and stakes for the committed — and one person can cover their whole squad with a Squad Pass.

Can I lie about my screen time?

No. The numbers come from your phone, not from you. That's the point — your group chat already suspects your screen time is horrific; Pact just confirms it.

What does Pact see?

Only what it needs: which tracked apps were used and for how long, on your device. No message content, no browsing, no selling data — the business model is subscriptions, not surveillance.

Android?
