Offgrid locks the apps you choose, for the time you choose — so you can be where you actually are.
Pick a mode, set a timer, and the apps that pull you away are paused until the session ends. Ending early takes effort — a challenge you choose, from quick sums to repeating a pattern, plus an optional cooldown. Just enough friction that you won't bother. That's the point.
MODES FOR REAL MOMENTS
• Night Out — no 2am texts you'll regret. Messaging, social and shopping paused; maps, calls and your taxi apps stay open.
• Date Night — be where your feet are. Camera stays open.
• Family Time — dinner without the scroll.
• Show Mode — watch the gig, not your feed. No filming.
• Full Lockdown — everything off except calls and the few apps you choose to keep.
• Custom modes — build your own for revision, the gym, work boundaries, or whatever needs your presence.
YOUR RULES, YOUR FRICTION
• Choose how hard ending early should be: end any time, a challenge, a challenge plus cooldown — or Time Lock.
• Time Lock means it: no early exit at all, and Offgrid can't be deleted mid-session. The timer is the only way out.
DESIGNED FOR SAFETY
• Phone calls — incoming, outgoing and emergency — always work. iOS guarantees it; no app can block them, including this one.
• Full Lockdown reminds you to keep your ride-home apps available before it locks.
• Every session — even Time Lock — has a fixed end and always unlocks on schedule, even if the app is closed.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No account. No server. No analytics. No data collected — nothing leaves your phone.
• Offgrid never even learns which apps you block: Apple's Screen Time technology keeps your choices opaque to us.
Powered by Apple's Screen Time API. Everything Offgrid does is under your control.
Put your phone on the table. Be present. It'll all be there in the morning — and you'll be glad you were somewhere else.
