Screen Time Limit: Focus Mode

Block apps, set limits, and build focus sessions — with parental controls.

My roleMobile developer · Apple Screen Time API integration

Focus Mode is an iOS productivity app that helps users manage screen time, eliminate distractions, and improve focus. Block selected apps and websites, set time limits, and build structured focus sessions. Includes parental control features to monitor and limit children's device usage. Combines screen time tracking, app blocking, and usage analytics to promote healthier digital habits.

How I built it

Project notes
Problem

Users wanted to enforce real screen-time limits with native iOS reliability, not workarounds — blocking apps and websites, configuring focus sessions, and giving parents oversight of family device usage. This required deep Apple Screen Time API integration that most cross-platform stacks can't reach.

Approach

Built around the native Apple Screen Time API on iOS for app/website blocking, time limits, and family controls. Designed a session model that supports user-defined focus blocks alongside parental restrictions. Adapty drives the paywall, Mixpanel and AppsFlyer cover analytics and acquisition attribution.

Outcome

Shipped to the App Store with full Screen Time API support and parental controls. Subscriptions and feature usage tracked end-to-end so paywall and onboarding can be optimized without redeploying.
