What it is

Be Serious: the homepage
Be Serious is an iPhone app blocker that locks your most distracting apps and unlocks them only when you complete daily habits. Choose from fasting, workouts, nutrition tracking, hydration or streak management, and earn screen time minutes for each habit completed.
The app includes AI meal scanning to log calories and macros from photos, progress tracking with charts and insights, and optional group chat for accountability. Locking is optional, and you can use Be Serious as a straight habit tracker without the lock feature.

Quick answers
How does locking apps work?
You choose apps with Apple's Screen Time picker, and Be Serious keeps them locked. Completing a habit earns minutes, and the clock runs only while you are inside a locked app. At midnight the balance resets and the lock returns. Your app choices never leave your phone.
How is Be Serious different from iPhone Screen Time?
Be Serious is built on Apple's Screen Time, but with a different rule. Screen Time gives a daily allowance and asks you to stop when it runs out. Be Serious starts your chosen apps locked and opens them only with minutes earned by completing habits.
What happens if my subscription ends?
Everything unlocks automatically. The lock only runs while your subscription is active, so your phone is never held hostage.
Can it lock food delivery apps while I fast?
Yes. You can pick delivery apps separately and they stay locked for as long as a fast is running. If you track nutrition, they also lock when you go over your calorie budget.
Is Be Serious available on Android?
Not yet. Be Serious is built for iPhone, iOS 18 or later. You can leave your email to be notified if that changes.
