About this app

When willpower isn't enough to break free from smartphone distractions and dopamine addiction, 'AnLock' steps in to create the ultimate environment for perfect focus and peace of mind!

Forget the hassle of picking and locking individual apps one by one. AnLock takes a completely reverse, revolutionary approach: it shuts down your entire phone, leaving only a few essential apps of your choice accessible. It is a powerful, intuitive digital detox application designed to give you absolute control over your daily life.

Regain your focus and transform your routine with our three customized locking modes tailored to your specific situation.

■ AnLock’s 3 Powerful Customized Lock Modes ■

1. ⏱️ Timer Lock: "Your Well-Deserved Quality Time"
When you need a temporary digital detox or a peaceful, uninterrupted night's sleep, simply set your desired time. While the timer is running, you can fully immerse yourself in your personal time, completely shielded from the constant temptations of your smartphone.

2. 🚀 Instant Lock: "Hand Over Your Phone with Peace of Mind"
When you need to pass your phone to your children or lend your device to someone else, activate Instant Lock immediately. Access to all functions except your pre-selected essential apps is strictly blocked, preventing privacy leaks or uncontrolled smartphone usage.

3. 📅 Schedule Lock: "The Power of a Consistent Routine"
No need to lock your phone manually every single day—build a smart routine. For students who need regular smartphone restriction or professionals wanting to fully focus during work hours, the blocking system automatically activates according to your pre-set days and times.

■ Why AnLock is Special ■
- [Whitelist-Based Blocking]: It features unbeatable blocking power by allowing only a bare minimum of required apps (like Phone or Messages) and completely locking down the rest.
- [Strict Restrictions & Penalties]: To break your commitment and force-unlock the device midway, you must accept a clear financial penalty via in-app purchase. This powerful psychological barrier firmly holds your crumbling willpower.
- [Secure Data Management]: We prioritize your data privacy by applying industry-standard encryption for all data transfers. Fully complying with Google Play policies, we support a transparent account and data deletion request process through our website, even after you uninstall the app.

■ Highly Recommended For ■
- Students preparing for crucial exams who need to completely eliminate distractions.
- Professionals and freelancers struggling with low productivity due to constant smartphone notifications.
- Anyone suffering from dopamine addiction (Shorts, Reels, Instagram) who wants a genuine digital detox.
- Parents who worry about accidental in-app purchases or exposure to harmful apps when giving phones to children.


■ Notice on the Use of Accessibility Service API
AnLock utilizes the AccessibilityService API precisely to achieve the core purpose of the app: assisting users with digital detox and preventing smartphone overdependency through app locking and timing features.

1. Purpose of Using the Accessibility Permission:
- It is used to detect in real-time when a specific app or screen selected by the user is launched, and to physically block that screen during the designated lock period.
- It monitors screen transition events to accurately calculate the total locked duration and allowed app usage time upon unlocking.

2. Collected and Shared Data:
- While AnLock accesses current app package names and screen transition event data through the Accessibility Service, it NEVER collects, uploads to a server, or shares this data with third parties. All data is processed safely and strictly within the device solely for the app-blocking logic.

If you do not grant the Accessibility permission, the use of the core 'App Lock & Screen Blocking' features will be restricted.
