BookLockYour apps stay shut until the book is open.
BookLock locks the apps you name until you read a chapter of a classic and prove you were there. Minutes read go in the bank. Minutes of feed come out of it.
Who is stealing your hours?
Three steps. No way around them.
Name your thieves
Pick the apps that eat the day. BookLock holds them shut — including the one you're thinking of right now.
Read a chapter, prove it
Three questions at the end of every chapter. Skimming is obvious. So is opening a summary in another tab.
Spend what you earned
Minutes land in the bank. Withdraw them to unlock an app — and watch the balance drain in real time.
A currency you can only mint by reading.
A chapter buys about half an hour of screen time, more as your streak grows. The bank only fills when you read.
Your worst hours, locked down
BookLock closes the bank during the hours you scroll most. Depending on your mode you get a bypass or two a day, or none at all. Your minutes are still in the bank when it ends.
Read daily, earn more per page
Every consecutive day raises your rate, up to 1.8×. Miss a day and it resets to 1.0× — and we will mention it.
Trade the feed for a library card.
A large collection of public-domain classics, always growing, with new books added all the time. Each one is split chapter by chapter so a session is a real unit of progress, not an endless scroll with a different font. No purchases, no upsells, no recommendations engine trying to keep you here.
“I would rather finish a chapter than a feed.”
