I built CTRL after realizing I was spending 5+ hours a day on my phone despite setting Screen Time limits I'd immediately override. The existing tools felt like suggestions, not solutions.

CTRL is an iOS app for people tired of doom-scrolling and losing hours to their phone. Unlike Screen Time, which is easy to bypass, CTRL uses Apple's Family Controls framework to enforce real limits you actually can't wiggle out of.
Set focus sessions, block distracting apps, and track your usage over time. Your attention is your most valuable asset, and you deserve tools that actually protect it.
Built by a college student who kept failing his own screen time goals.
