Take back your evenings.
Protect your mornings.
Digital Sunset gently shields the apps that pull you into the scroll — fifteen minutes before bed, until a reliable alarm wakes you.
Everything you need for
a gentler night.
Six small tools that work together — a schedule, a shield, an alarm, a way out when you need one, and a calm look at how the night went.
Wind-down schedule
Pick a nightly curfew and a wake-up time. Separate weekend times if you want them. Digital Sunset handles the rest.
Smart app blocking
Allow-list mode (block everything except your essentials) or block-list mode (just these apps). You decide.
Wake-up alarm
System-level alarm via AlarmKit. Rings through Silent and Focus modes. Lock Screen UI, Dynamic Island, snooze.
Thoughtful overrides
If something is genuinely urgent, a short reflection plus a brief delay gives you a way through — without making it effortless.
Morning recap
A calm, non-judgmental summary of last night. Overrides, sleep time, blocked attempts — context, not grades.
Optional streak
Celebrate consistency if that helps you. Turn it off if it doesn't. Streaks reset quietly — no shame, no push.
A routine that builds itself.
Set your schedule
Choose a wind-down time and a wake-up time. Pick which apps stay available.
Wind down at dusk
Fifteen minutes before, a gentle reminder. At bedtime, distracting apps fade to calm.
Wake, refreshed
A reliable alarm rings. Restrictions lift. A quiet morning recap, then your day begins.
No cloud. No accounts.
No tracking.
Digital Sunset is one of the rare apps that genuinely does not want your data. Your schedule, your chosen apps, your reflections — all of it stays on your device. There is no server for us to lose.
Three platforms,
one quiet email.
We're shipping iPhone first (TestFlight this spring), then Android and Desktop. Leave your email under the platform you care about — we'll only write once, when it's ready.

Things worth asking.
Does Digital Sunset work on iOS 25 or earlier?
Not yet. Digital Sunset requires iOS 26 because of AlarmKit — the system-level alarm that rings through Silent mode. Older iOS versions don't expose that API.
Can I break the restrictions if I need to?
Yes, intentionally. Digital Sunset uses friction-based restrictions, not unbreakable locks. A short reflection prompt plus a brief delay give you an override when something is genuinely urgent. You can also disable everything from iOS Settings at any time. This is a feature — the app is a tool for self-regulation, not a jail.
Does Digital Sunset see my app usage?
No. Apple's Family Controls framework hands us opaque tokens for the apps you choose to shield. We never see names, bundle IDs, or any behavioral data. Your choices are stored locally on your device and never transmitted anywhere.
When is Android / Desktop coming?
After iOS is stable and we've learned from the first wave of users. Android will likely use its Digital Wellbeing APIs; Desktop is further out and may start as a Mac companion to the iPhone app.
Is it free?
MVP: free. Future versions may include optional paid features (multi-device sync, deeper analytics you opt into, custom shield UIs). The core wind-down will always be free.
