HOW IT
WORKS

rule no.1: my rules

SET THE RULES

Pick your time-sink apps and a daily limit. Twenty minutes of feeds? An hour of everything? Your call — you set the rules, nobody else.

today’s quest: spoon

LIMIT HIT → QUEST DROPS

Time’s up, apps lock — but instead of a guilt-trip screen, you get a quest: “find a wooden spoon.” Suddenly you’re up and rummaging.

SNAP. UNLOCKED.

Photograph the thing in the real world and your apps pop back open. Your pic unlocks your phone. That’s it. That’s the app.

the fine print (it’s nice)

PHONE TIME IS THE SIDE QUEST.
REAL LIFE IS THE MAIN QUEST.

👑 You set the rules

Unpic is for adults who’d like their evening back — not parental control. You choose the apps, the limits, and how hard the quests are. Nobody is grounding you.

🛋️ Quests beat block screens

A block screen just makes you stare at a sadder screen. A quest gets you off the couch — into the kitchen, the garden, the real world. Friction, but make it fun.

🔒 Privacy by design

All screen-time data stays on your device. Unpic uses Apple’s FamilyControls, so we never even see which apps you use. Truly. We couldn’t peek if we wanted to.

🙅 No ads. No data selling.

You’re the customer, not the product. No trackers, no “partners,” no creepy attention economics. Just you, your phone, and a wooden spoon.

GET UNPIC
FIRST.

We’re putting the finishing touches on the toy box. Join the waitlist and you’ll be first through the door when Unpic hits the App Store.

No spam. One email when we launch, maybe two if it’s exciting.
