Dinner mode is on.

No scorekeeping. No partner dashboard.
Choose the moment you both want to share: dinner, the sofa, a walk, or a real conversation.
The pause starts only after both phones confirm. It feels like a tiny shared promise.
Each person keeps their own app picks private. Your partner sees the moment, not your phone habits.
The timer, mood, and paused-app status are all you need. No feed, no score, no checking up.
End whenever you need to.

You choose your apps. Your partner gets the moment, not a report.
Only your selected apps pause on your phone.
No list of your apps. No activity feed. No checking up.
No usage reports, streak pressure, or shame stats.
End whenever you need to.
No. App, category, and website choices stay on your iPhone.
No. Both people say yes first, and your phone only pauses the apps you selected.
Yes. Unlock Early ends the pause on your phone right away.
No. DuoLock does not show app reports, opened-app events, ads, or scorekeeping.
So your phone can pause the apps you selected during an active shared session.
