Please Mr Pig

in dev

iOS app blocker with a judgmental one-eyed pig who guilts, shames, and coaches you out of opening distracting apps.

The question

What if your app blocker had feelings — and judged you?

My thoughts

Same mission as Ration but for iOS, with a radically different approach: a character-driven gatekeeper. When you try to open a blocked app, Mr. Pig appears with escalating reactions — gentle disappointment, then guilt, then full-on rage. 70+ voice lines, multiple expressions, a penalty tier system. The humor/shame angle is the differentiator. Not another boring settings screen — it's a relationship with a pig who cares about your screen time. Evolved from a more serious app called "Intentionally Intentional" — turns out a judgmental pig is way more effective than a mindfulness prompt.
