Most apps are designed to open before you've decided to open them.
Meridian puts one moment between you and that reflex.
When you open an app you've chosen to guard, Meridian appears
and asks a simple question:
"Why are you here?"
That pause is the product. Not shame. Not a hard block.
Just enough space to make a real choice before you continue.

Sometimes you really do want to open the app.
Sometimes you don't.
Meridian helps you notice the difference.
Give yourself one moment before you go.
