Lockup - Phone Free Sessions app analytics for September 19

One code puts every phone in the room away. Start a session, share a six-character code, and every phone that joins has its distracting apps blocked until the session ends. Use it for a class, a study group, a team meeting, a rehearsal, or dinner at home. STARTING A SESSION - Create a free account in the app or on the web - Start a session and choose how long it runs, from 20 to 60 minutes - Share the code, or let people scan it - Up to 30 people can join - Phones unlock when you end the session, or when the time runs out - The person who started the session's phone is never blocked, so they always keep control of the room JOINING A SESSION - Tap Join, enter the code, and you are in - No account needed to join a session - Distracting apps stay blocked until the session ends FOR SCHOOLS Schools can run Lockup across the whole timetable instead of session by session: - Students scan their school's code to check in for the day - Distracting apps are blocked automatically during school hours - Breaks and lunch unlock on their own schedule - Teachers can grant a temporary unlock when a lesson needs phones - Everything unlocks automatically when the school day ends - Teachers and admins manage classes, breaks and unlocks from the Lockup dashboard - Student accounts are created by the school, and Lockup runs on each student's own device HOW BLOCKING WORKS Lockup uses Screen Time to block the selected apps, and a local network connection to stop blocked apps and websites reaching the internet around the block. Both are active only while a session or a school day is running. - Blocking turns off automatically when a session ends, at the end of the school day, during scheduled breaks, and when a teacher grants a temporary unlock. - The network connection exists solely to enforce on-device app and website blocking. Lockup does not use it to monitor, collect, or sell browsing activity, and does not route traffic to third parties for advertising or analytics. - Lockup is not a general-purpose or anonymizing VPN. PERMISSIONS LOCKUP ASKS FOR - Screen Time: to block the selected apps while blocking is active - Camera: to scan session join codes and school check-in codes. Nothing is recorded. - Notifications: to say when a phone locks, unlocks, or a break begins PRIVACY Lockup is used in schools, so it is built to collect as little as possible. Lockup shows no ads, uses no advertising identifiers, and does not sell personal data. Lockup does not track browsing history and does not record what anyone types or says. Lockup records the device model and a device identifier so that an account can only be signed in on one phone at a time. This prevents a second device being used to get around blocking.
