About

First time founder. Just shipped my first ever mobile app after months of building without talking to a single user. Made pretty much every mistake in the book, changed the positioning three times, and almost abandoned it twice. Still not sure if anyone needs it, but it's out there now and I'm finding out. I build because I genuinely enjoy it, not because I have it all figured out. Sharing the journey publicly because I learn faster when I have to articulate what I'm doing and why.

BedLock - Make your bed to unlock your apps

Most habit apps ask for willpower. BedLock doesn't. BedLock is built around one idea: adding friction. Instead of relying on motivation to stop scrolling in the morning, you make scrolling harder than making your bed. Choose which apps to lock. Wake up. Photograph your made bed. AI verifies it in seconds. Your apps unlock for the day. No photo, no access. No cheating. No excuses.
