# Rocus

> Rocus is a screen time app for iPhone that blocks the apps you choose and asks for your intention before you scroll.

Rocus blocks the apps, app categories and websites you pick, grouped into profiles. Each profile blocks always, on a schedule, or after a daily time limit. When you open a blocked app, a shield shows a sentence built from the intention you gave Rocus and two choices: choose your intention (the app closes) or choose to scroll (the app opens for 15 minutes). Choices are counted as New self and Old self. An open limit caps how many times a day you can choose to scroll; a hard block and focus sessions remove that option entirely. Rocus is built on Apple's Screen Time APIs.
