Reporting for duty

Sarge doesn't take excuses.

Pick the apps that eat your day. He puts them on lockdown — with curfews, daily caps and unlocks you have to earn.

Three-step basic training

Set it up once. Argue with him later.

01

Name the offenders

Pick apps and sites, or drop a whole squad into one group and block them together.

02

Give him the hours

Curfews, work blocks, daily caps. Sarge holds the line whether you like it or not.

03

Earn every unlock

Ten pushups or a math problem stands between you and the feed. Counted on-device.

Strict mode

Sealed in. No takebacks.

Turn it on and the escape hatches close. Deleting the app, loosening a rule, begging — none of it works until the cooldown runs out.

Reps before scrolls

Friction gates make the unlock cost something. Ten pushups counted by the camera, or a problem your half-asleep brain has to actually solve.

Nothing leaves your phone

No account, no sync, no analytics. Your usage data stays on the device — Sarge is the only one watching, and he doesn't file reports.

Squads, not one-offs

Group your worst offenders once, then block, cap or schedule the whole set with a single switch.

Questions

Before you enlist.

Can I get out of a block early?

Normally yes — Sarge just makes you work for it. In Strict Mode, no: you wait out the cooldown.

Does it drain my battery?

Barely. On iPhone, blocking rides Apple's own Screen Time engine; on Android a lightweight watcher only checks which app is in front.

What does it cost?

Your first week is free — everything unlocked. After that, buy it once (€7.99) or run it monthly (€1.99), billed through the App Store or Google Play. Cancel there any time.

Do you see my usage?

Never. There's no account and no server — everything stays on your device. Details in the privacy policy.

Your attention, under orders.

First week free — the whole kit. Two minutes to set up. Considerably harder to get out of.
