The mindful pause
A gentle gate stands between you and the scroll. Long enough to think, short enough to never feel like a wall.
Screen Time Guard for iPhone & iPad
A breath before the scroll.
Moment slips a short, intentional pause between the impulse and the app. Pick what pulls you in, set your rhythm, and watch your usage with kindness — without sending your Screen Time data to our servers.
Screen Time data stays on this iPhone.

How it works
Four small steps to a calmer phone.
Set it up once in a couple of minutes. Moment then stays gently in the background until a protected app needs a pause.
Pick your apps
Choose the apps and categories that pull you in. Moment shields them with Apple's Screen Time, right on device.
A pause appears
Open a shielded app and Moment greets you with a short countdown instead — a quiet beat to decide on purpose.
Unlock with intent
Wait it out and you get an unlock window of a few minutes. When it ends, the shield returns on its own.
See your patterns
A calendar and daily breakdown show where your time goes, paced against the goal you set for yourself.
What's inside
Designed to slow the moment, not your day.
Adaptive timing
Keep one fixed pause, or let it scale with the day — a longer breath once you've already spent hours on screen.
App shields
Protect social, video, games, or any apps you choose. Turn shields on, off, or relock early whenever you like.
Screen Time calendar
A monthly view colors each day by usage. Tap in for an hourly and by-category breakdown of where the time went.
Daily goal & pace
Set a daily target and the unlock screen shifts color as the day fills — right on pace, ahead, or over your goal.
Private by design
No account and no Moment server for Screen Time data. Your selections and usage summaries live in protected storage on your device.
Insight, not judgment
Understand your habits at a glance.
Moment turns Apple's Device Activity data into a calm, readable picture of your day — so awareness comes naturally, without shame or streak-chasing.
- Daily totals tracked across a month
- Breakdown by Social, Games, Entertainment, Productivity & Web
- Hourly detail when you tap into any day
- Pacing against the daily goal you choose
Privacy first
Your Screen Time never leaves your phone.
Moment uses Apple's Screen Time and Family Controls entirely on device. There's no account to create and no Moment server for your Screen Time data — your app selections, settings, and usage summaries stay in protected local storage, shared only with Moment's own extensions.
No Moment account required
No Screen Time uploads

One quieter moment at a time
Put a breath between you and the scroll.
Moment is a focused little utility for iPhone and iPad. Have a question before it lands on the App Store? We're glad to help.
