Reach deep focus
Distractions are simply closed, so an hour of work stays an hour of work.
rotshield · for iphone
Rotshield closes the apps you choose — on a schedule, all day, or once a daily limit runs out. To get back in early, you breathe for a minute.
how it works
In Apple's own picker. iOS hands Rotshield opaque tokens, not names — the app never learns what you chose.
A schedule, all day, or a daily limit. For a single stretch of work, a focus timer does the same thing once.
A short breathing challenge opens a 15-minute window. When it closes, iOS puts the shield back on its own.
what it is for
Distractions are simply closed, so an hour of work stays an hour of work.
Take back the hours and spend them on the thing you keep postponing.
A day that ends with something left in you, not scrolled away.
brain score
Your daily goal against the minutes you actually spent. The mascot wears the result all day — and every time you turn back at a shield, it earns a little credit.
privacy
No account, no server, no analytics. That is not a statement of intent — it is a description of the build. Screen time is computed by iOS inside a sandboxed extension and never sent anywhere. Delete the app, and everything goes with it.
Read the privacy policyThe shield belongs to iOS. Rotshield asks the system to close an app, and the system does it — so withdrawing Screen Time access or deleting the app undoes the block. It is a tool for limiting yourself, not other people.
