About this app

IronLock — The Nuclear Discipline Engine

IronLock is a tamper-proof productivity lock for Android. When you commit to a session, the lock holds. No emergency exit. No "just five more minutes." No reinstalling the app to escape. The vault stays sealed until the timer expires — exactly the way you set it.

Built for people serious about reclaiming their attention from doomscrolling, adult sites, and gambling traps.

WHY IRONLOCK IS DIFFERENT
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

Most "screen time" and "focus" apps fail for one reason: they let you turn them off when you're weak. IronLock is engineered so you cannot.

• Server-synced timer — Changing your phone's clock does nothing. The countdown runs on a secure server.
• Anti-uninstall — While a lock is active, the app cannot be removed.
• Browser lockdown — Block social media or adult content and ALL browsers are blocked too. No backdoor through Chrome, Brave, or Samsung Internet.
• App-store lockdown — Play Store and Galaxy Store are sealed during the lock, so you can't install a fresh browser to bypass.
• Settings shield — The Android Settings paths used to weaken the app (Accessibility, Device Admin, Uninstall) are intercepted and blocked.

CORE FEATURES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🔒 NUCLEAR LOCK
Choose what to block (social media, adult, gambling, or custom apps) and how long (1 hour to 365 days). Once you type "I AGREE," the vault seals.

🛡 INTEGRATED SAFE BROWSER
A built-in browser that ALWAYS blocks adult, gambling, and social-media sites — and forces HTTPS + SafeSearch on Google, Bing, and DuckDuckGo. Available before, during, and after a lock so you can still reach legitimate sites (banking, work, docs) without breaking your commitment.

⚡ QUICK LOCKS
One tap for 1 hour, 4 hours, 1 day, or 7 days of focus.

🧘 SAFETY-NET WHITELIST
Choose up to 3 essential apps (Phone, Maps, WhatsApp) that bypass every lock — so emergencies always work.

💭 AI-GENERATED LOCK SCREEN QUOTES
Calming, never-the-same reminders generated for your moments of weakness.

📊 FOCUS STATS
Track time saved, longest session, and total sessions completed.

🌙 BUILT FOR DARK MODE
Minimalist, electric-blue accent. Designed to feel native and disappear when it's not needed.

HOW IT WORKS (4 steps)
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

1. Grant the four permissions IronLock needs (Accessibility, Device Admin, Local VPN, Battery exemption).
2. Pick your blocklist — categories, apps, or both.
3. Set a duration and type I AGREE.
4. The vault seals. The countdown is server-synced and cannot be cheated.

When the timer expires, IronLock releases everything automatically

ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE DISCLOSURE
To provide the "Nuclear Lock" and "No Loophole" functionality, IronLock uses the AccessibilityService API. This allows the app to:

Detect Distractions: Monitor when a blocked app (such as Instagram or TikTok) is opened in the foreground to instantly trigger the "Locked" overlay.
Prevent Bypassing: Monitor access to system settings to prevent users from force-stopping the app, clearing data, or disabling focus timers while a lock is active.
Your Privacy is Our Priority:

The AccessibilityService API is used strictly for focus management and security purposes.
We DO NOT read, collect, or transmit any personal data, private messages, or screen content to our servers.
All processing happens locally on your device to ensure your digital sovereignty.
