Lock In

The study timer for iPhone

Lock in.
Everything else can wait.

Start the timer and your distracting apps lock until you're done. Lock In tracks every hour, by subject, so you can see the work adding up.

Lock mode

The apps that pull you away stay shut

Choose the apps that eat your study time. When a session starts they lock, and they open again when you finish.

  • Block a list of apps, or allow only the few you need
  • Built on Apple's Screen Time, so it works across your whole phone
  • Your choices stay on your iPhone. We never see them

And the rest of what you'd want

Four ways to time it

Pomodoro, your own intervals, a stopwatch, or one deep block with no breaks.

Sound to study to

Brown noise, pink noise, ocean, rain or a fireplace, playing while the timer runs.

Squads

Join your friends, see who's studying right now, and compare hours for the week.

Streaks that survive holidays

Set your semester dates or switch on break mode and your streak waits for you.

Semester Wrapped

Your hours, top subject and best streak, ready to share when the semester ends.

On your Home Screen

A widget shows today's hours against your goal without opening the app.
