For anyone whose app blocker stopped working after a week

Earn your screen time back.

Kept locks your distracting apps until you actually get something done. Then it adapts, so it keeps working long after every other blocker has quietly given up.

Still working in month three.

You're on the list. I'll email you when the beta opens.

Free to start when it launches. Founding memberships open soon, and the waitlist gets first access.

Every blocker fails the same way.

You've tried them all. Freedom, Opal, a Brick, maybe even a flip phone. They work brilliantly for a week. Then your brain learns the loophole and you're back to square one.

The problem was never your willpower. A fixed block is easy to out-smart, and a strict one is easy to just delete. Nothing is built to stay effective, so nothing does.

Three things no other blocker gets right.

1

Earn it back

Start the day with your distracting apps locked. Finish a task or a focus session and you unlock a few minutes. Doing your work literally buys back your phone.

2

It adapts, so it lasts

The more you try to cave, the firmer Kept gets. When you're on a roll, it eases off. No honeymoon phase that quietly stops working after a week.

3

Bring a referee

Pair with a friend or partner who approves any early unlock. It's the "someone takes your phone away" feeling, even when you live alone.

Get Kept first. Never pay again.

When Kept opens for founding members you'll get the very first TestFlight beta and lock in lifetime access for a one-time price. Join the waitlist now to be first in line when spots open.

No payment yet. Join the list and you'll be first to know the moment founding spots open.

Good to know

When does it launch?

It's being built now, in the open. Founding members get the TestFlight beta first, which we're targeting for late 2026. You'll get progress updates along the way.

iPhone or Android?

iPhone first, because it has the deepest controls for genuinely blocking apps. Android is on the roadmap for later.

How is this different from Freedom or Opal?

Those block. Kept makes you earn access, adapts so it doesn't go stale, and adds real human accountability. It's built specifically to still be working in month three.

Is my data private?

Yes. Kept collects the minimum it needs to work and never sells your data. [Adjust this line to match your final privacy policy.]

Who's building it?

Hi, I'm [YOUR NAME]. I'm building Kept in the open because I needed it myself and nothing out there actually kept working. [Add a sentence of your own story.]
