Description
CatNap helps you control your screen time by giving your cat the keys to your phone. Create a CatKey, select your distracting apps, and switch to CatNap mode. If you want to use those distracting apps, you have to get up and take a picture of your cat. If you want to doomscroll, you're gonna have to pay the Cat Tax first.
Doomscrolling is killing your productivity. You've tried willpower. Nothing sticks because bypassing a limit takes one tap. CatNap is different. When you want to open TikTok, Instagram, or any blocked app, you have to physically find your cat and scan them first. By the time you've gotten off the couch to find your cat, hopefully the urge to scroll has passed. And hey, you spend more time with your cats - everyone wins.
HOW IT WORKS:
You create a CatKey by scanning your cat's face. Then, you tell Evie, our Cat Mascot, which apps you want to block. When you try to open them, Evie will block them until pay the Cat Tax with a photo of your cat. Not just any cat will work to unlock your apps. They have to be one your CatKeys! It's simple, it's fun, and it actually keeps you off your phone.
CATKEYS:
CatNap uses image recognition to verify you've actually scanned your cat. You can collect as many as you want... just make sure you'll be able to find them again. Otherwise, you're going to have to commit Cat Tax Evasion with an Emergency Skip. More on those later...
TRACK YOUR PROGRESS:
Every time you pay the cat tax, we count the time you've spent in CatNap mode. Watch your screen time drop day by day. Build streaks and track hours saved. CatNap shows you exactly how much of your life you're reclaiming.
CATNAP MODES:
Loop - your apps are blocked by default and your cat only allows increments of screen time until your apps re-lock automatically
Focus - session based app blocking
Contract - session based app blocking with your friends as witnesses: remember when we mentioned Cat Tax Evasion? If you use an Emergency Skip, every cat on the block is going to hear about it immediately with a notification
BLOCKING CAPABILITIES:
Block any app: TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, Reddit, games, websites — you choose
You can't fool our cat recognition
Screen time tracking with daily and weekly stats
Streak tracking to build better habits
Multiple cats supported (enroll your whole clowder - tbh, we just learned what that word meant while making this app lol)
WE MADE CATNAP FOR:
Anyone addicted to TikTok, Instagram, or social media
People who've tried everything and nothing works
Students who need to focus during study sessions
Remote workers losing hours to their phone
Parents who want to model better screen habits
Cat owners looking for an excuse to interact with their pet more
Anyone doing a digital detox or dopamine reset
THE CAT TAX PHILOSOPHY:
We believe redirection works better than punishment. Instead of feeling guilty about phone use, CatNap turns the unlock into a fun moment. You get off your phone AND you hang out with your cat. That's a win-win. Pay the cat tax. Break the scroll.
