Pauseway

Pauseway makes opening distracting apps a conscious choice. Choose the individual apps you want to pause through Apple’s private Screen Time picker. Pauseway applies an Apple system shield and keeps it in place until you deliberately start a Social Pass. FREE • Watch one rewarded ad to start a Social Pass. • A pass is granted only after the ad provider confirms that the reward was earned. • Leaving or failing an ad keeps your selected apps shielded. PRO • Remove rewarded ads. • Keep the intentional five-second pause before every Social Pass. ONE PASS, MEASURED HONESTLY • Choose a 10-, 20-, or 30-minute Social Pass on Home or in Settings. • Apple Screen Time measures actual selected-app use; time spent elsewhere does not count. • When the aggregate threshold is reached, Pauseway automatically reapplies the shield and lets you know the pass has ended. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • App selections are opaque tokens supplied by Apple. Pauseway does not identify them by bundle ID. • Local behavior counters stay on the device. • Selected-app usage is rendered only inside Apple’s privacy-preserving report extension and is not exported into Pauseway business logic. Pauseway is not a timer that simply counts down while the app is open. It uses Apple’s public Family Controls, Managed Settings, and Device Activity frameworks for the system-level pause. A subscription renews automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of its current period. Manage or cancel subscriptions in your App Store account settings.
