Anchor
Take back control of your attention.
Anchor helps you put intentional friction between yourself and the apps that consume your time.
Features
How Anchor helps
Anchor is built around a simple idea: distraction is easier to avoid when there's a small, intentional step in the way.
Protect distracting apps
Choose the apps you want Anchor to help you stay accountable with.
Set daily limits
Set how much time you want to allow yourself on protected apps.
Block when limits are reached
Once the daily limit is reached, Anchor can block access to the protected app.
Focus sessions
Create dedicated periods of focused time.
Intentional unlocks
Instead of instantly bypassing a restriction, Anchor introduces intentional friction around extra access.
Accountability
Use an accountability partner through Anchor Manager.
Anchor is designed to create friction around distracting apps — it doesn't claim to make bypassing it impossible. It can't prevent things like uninstalling the app, a factory reset, or powering off the device.
