Ygra

Your phone is a weapon against you. Ygra is the armor.

Not a planner. Gear.

Ygra Lock in screen: a 7-day regime report — 9 days holding the line, 21 pulls, 18 blocked — and the Lock in button.
01The opponent

An endless feed. A red dot on the icon. “One more video.” All of it is designed by people paid for your attention. Willpower alone does not win that fight.

You need armor.

02Lock in

Tap Lock in. Everything else is closed.

Pick the apps that steal your time. Ygra closes them behind its shield through Screen Time until the timer ends.

Strictness

Stop any time.

Opening a closed app takes a pause: a wait and a “Why?”.

Stop after a 10-second wait.

Just long enough to change your mind.

No way out until the timer ends.

Up to 2 hours. The Sleep profile, up to 9.

Profiles: Work, Study, Sleep and your own. Each with its own app list.

03Schedules

Lock in starts on its own.

By weekday and time, even when Ygra is closed. Each schedule has its own profile and strictness.

A sample day
  • Sleep · Strict23:00–07:00
  • Morning lock07:00–07:45
  • Work · Medium13:00–15:00

Morning lock

For the first minutes after you wake up, the feed stays closed until you check off 1–3 of today’s tasks.

Schedules screen: 23:00–07:00 every day, Sleep, Strict; 13:00–15:00 on weekdays, Work, Medium.
04Your score

A report, not a game.

No points, no ranks, no confetti. Just facts: days holding the line, how many times your phone tried to pull you out, how many pulls were blocked.

08FAQ

The short version

How is Ygra different from Screen Time?

A Screen Time limit goes away with one tap. Ygra runs on the same system mechanism and adds strictness, schedules, a morning lock and a pull count. A Strict lock in has no exit until the timer ends.

What is strictness?

The rule for getting out of a lock in. Light: stop any time. Medium: after a 10-second wait. Strict: only when time is up — at most 2 hours, the Sleep profile at most 9.

Why does Ygra need Screen Time access?

Without it iOS lets no app close other apps. Ygra uses it only for blocking you turn on yourself. Only iOS sees app names; Ygra gets encrypted tokens.

How do schedules and the morning lock work?

A schedule starts lock in on its own by weekday and time, even when Ygra is closed. The morning lock keeps apps closed after you wake up until 1–3 tasks are checked off in Today. A window must be at least 15 minutes; iOS requires it.

Can I open an app during lock in?

Only on Light and only through the pause: Open anyway → wait → “Why?” → 5 minutes, then closed again. The pull counts either way.

What if I need my phone urgently?

Ygra does not block emergency calls or iOS system features. Keep calls, maps and banking out of the profile — only what you pick gets blocked.

Do I need an account?

No. Everything works signed out and stays on the phone. An account is only for sync and the assistant.

What leaves my phone?

Screen Time data and pulls — never. With an account, tasks, habits, profiles and settings sync. Details are in the Privacy Policy.

Where do I see the timer?

In the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen. On iPhones without the Dynamic Island, on the Lock Screen. Start a lock in from a widget.

What does Ygra run on?

iPhone with iOS 17 or later. In English, Russian, Spanish, Japanese and Korean.

Pixel-art can: “0 focus lost · Ygra lock in”

Lock in.

Your phone will not stop pulling. It will just stop working.
