From doomscroll to gratitude, in thirty seconds.

Gratitude Lock sits quietly in front of the apps that take your attention. Before they open, you write one specific moment you're grateful for — and why. Then they unlock.

HOW IT WORKS

Three steps. The middle one is the point.

01
You pick the apps
Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, X — whatever pulls you in. We gate them with your phone's own Screen Time (iOS) and Usage Access (Android). Nothing bolted on, nothing sneaky.
02
You write one moment
Tap to open, and a paper card slides up instead. Two fields: what you're grateful for, and why. The "why" takes the thank-you from reflex to real recall.
03
The app unlocks
You get the rest of the session, or until 11 PM — your choice. The moment is saved to a journal only you can read. No badges, no guilt, nothing to break.
WHY IT WORKS
Across four decades of research, one pattern holds: specificgratitude — one moment, one reason — moves the needle on mood and sleep. Generic lists don’t.
