About this app

Making commitments to new habits is easy, but keeping to them is not. Use Discipline to hold yourself accountable, by backing your commitment with a cash deposit. Remove the need for constant self-discipline, and let your phone keep you accountable instead.

Discipline can help you:

- Reduce addictive app usage: Dating apps, social media, & other distractions.
- Increase usage of self-improvement apps: Meditation, journaling, exercise & more.
- Show up where you want to be: The gym, social events, etc..
- Keep in touch: Call your mom, a friend, or make the hard call you have been putting off.

How it Works

1) Make a commitment
2) Put down a cash deposit
3) Keep your commitment, or risk loosing your deposit

Unlike other self-improvement apps, commitments made with Discipline are final. There's no way to avoid completing it, without losing your deposit. Even uninstalling the app, or disabling it, does not bypass the system.

Ratings and reviews

You can't set your own goals inside of this app. Instead, the phone's permissions are the only way the app can measure completion. I appreciate Discipline's philosophy against profiting off the user's failure, but I'm not able to track any goals that aren't contained in my phone (>80%). The phone permission categories may be great for people who won't self-report. For me, I'd need to use Discipline.io alongside Beeminder or another app greedy for my dollars. I hope the devs reconsider someday.

This app had great idea and I like it,but dear developer please rather than deposit money before the task start,, deposit money after task start,if fail, deposit if not fail, not deposit please make this additional system
