Sixteen helps you block distractions—until you ship. It syncs with your Linear workspace and unlocks your screen only after you finish your tasks. Guilt-free scrolling starts after the deep work.

Hey everyone 👋
I’m thrilled to launch Sixteen — a screen-time app for people who want to protect their focus, not just block apps.
Our favorite feature? Linear Unlock.
Try opening Instagram during the day, and Sixteen will say:
> “Let’s finish your Linear ticket first.”
When you ship, it unlocks.
Simple. Clean. Deeply satisfying.
This helped me go from scattered doomscrolling to structured deep work.
And yeah—Instagram hits different *after* you've earned it.
Would love for you to try it out. Your focus is worth fighting for.

@skeshav628 So smart: focus-first, distraction-after. It’s not about blocking apps, it’s about motivating you to finish meaningful work. Having used it for a day, doom‑scrolling feels earned now 😄. Congrats on getting to #8 Product of the Day—well deserved

Sixteen cleverly turns getting stuff done into a game do your Linear ticket, earn access to your dopamine apps, and stay focused with just the push of a few push‑ups.
Brilliant idea @skeshav628 - love what you'd done with the Linear Unlock.
This is really cool, congrats on the launch! Is there any plan to expand beyond Linear?
I fear this will make me too productive… and too good at doomscrolling.
Sounds awesome - love the idea of earning your screen time instead of just blocking it.
@Sixteen Congrats on the launch, Keshav! 🚀 Love the concept of 'earning' your distractions instead of just blocking them. As a heavy Linear user, this is super relevant. It’s a much healthier approach to focus. My question is: are there any plans to integrate with other project management tools like Jira or Asana in the future? That would be a game-changer! 🧠
