Need help with Unhook? We're here to assist you with any questions about blocking apps and building better screen time habits.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I block an app?
Go to the Blocks tab and tap 'Blocked apps' to pick the apps you want to lock. Once selected, they stay locked whenever any of your rules apply.
What are Coins and how do I earn them?
Coins are how you get into your blocked apps. You earn them by completing focus sessions and building good habits. Tap 'Earn Coins' on the home screen to start a session, then spend your Coins to unlock apps when you really need them.
What blocking rules can I set?
You can keep apps always locked, set schedules for specific times and days, set a daily time limit, set a daily open limit, and turn on the Doom Scroll Stopper, which steps in after a long stretch of scrolling.
What is the Doom Scroll Stopper?
It watches for long uninterrupted scrolling sessions and locks the app once you pass your chosen limit, so you get a nudge to stop before you lose another hour.
How do XP, levels, and streaks work?
Every focus session and good habit earns XP, which raises your level. Staying under your limits each day builds a streak, and the Progress tab shows your time reclaimed, current streak, level, and weekly focus time.
Is my data private?
Yes! Unhook uses Apple's Screen Time API and all your usage data stays on your device. We don't collect or store any of your app usage information on external servers.
