GreenLight blocks your distracting apps on a schedule. Need access? Ask your buddy. They decide if you get the green light.
Choose which apps distract you most — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, whatever. Set a schedule for when they should be blocked. GreenLight locks them down.
Need to check something? Send a request to your accountability buddy. Tell them why you need access and for how long. They see your request in real time.
Your buddy approves or denies. If approved, you get exactly the time you asked for. When it's up, the app locks again. Social accountability that actually works.
Schedule-based blocking with custom days and times. Your apps are locked during the hours you set — no willpower required.
Pair with a friend who approves or denies your requests. Real human accountability beats every app timer.
Track your daily focus with a score that reflects how well you resisted distractions. Watch it improve over time.
Join groups with friends, compete on focus rate, and take on weekly challenges together.
Build your streak, earn badges, and celebrate milestones. Every day focused is a day you level up.
The traffic light tracks your journey — where you started, where you are, and how much time you've reclaimed.

Blocked time you didn't override
In college, my roommates and I wrote social contracts to keep each other accountable — eating well, getting up early, working out. We even set up each other's screen time passwords so we couldn't scroll mindlessly.
It worked. But after college, we moved to different states. I built GreenLight to recreate that same accountability — without needing to be in the same house. If you've ever wished someone could just take your phone away when you're doom-scrolling, this app is for you.
