What is Focus Lock?
Focus Lock by Flipd is an app that helps users limit their screen time and lock away distractions from their phone.

The app is designed to help users be more productive, focused, and reduce temptation to go on their phone.
1. Whether you’re working from home, studying, focusing, reading, sleeping, or taking a social media detox, Focus will make sure that you can’t open your apps and get distracted.
2. With Focus, hide ALL of your downloaded apps for a time that you select, and your apps will return to your phone screen (like magic!) when the time is done.
3. FOCUS LOCK by Flipd is the original #1 app to limit screen time and the easiest way to lock away distractions from your phone.
4. Your initial trial will give you up to five free sessions, after which you’ll need to upgrade to continue using Focus.
5. From a happy user who works from home: “No matter what, you can’t open your apps and be distracted.
6. Focus takes a team to build and maintain, which is why it’s not free to use forever.
7. I work solo and sometimes social media really affects my focus.
8. Your subscription will automatically renew at the subscription price unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
