Rethought: Screen Time

Rethought helps you take back control of your attention. Choose the apps, categories, and websites that pull you in, and Rethought shields them — turning an automatic tap into a moment to pause and reflect.

When you open something you've decided to limit, Rethought steps in with a short intervention: a reframing question, a reminder of what matters to you, and a brief cool-down — so you decide on purpose instead of on autopilot.

FEATURES
• Block distracting apps, categories, and websites using Apple Screen Time
• A reflective intervention instead of a hard wall
• Customizable reframe questions, reminders, and calls to action
• Gentle reminders and a cool-down timer
• Private by design — your choices stay on your device; no tracking, no accounts

Rethought uses Apple's Screen Time (Family Controls) to apply the restrictions you choose. It never sees which specific apps or sites you pick — that information stays on your device.
