## The Commons Description
The Commons™ – Airplane Mode For Schools

Let’s be real phones are amazing. But at School? They can be a total distraction.

The Commons helps students stay focused during the school day without giving up their phones. No pouches. No locks. Just fewer distractions.

Built with privacy first, The Commons automatically pauses access to distracting apps like social media, games, and other non-academic content during school hours while keeping school-approved, medical, and essential communication apps available.

The result? More focus. Better learning. Stronger habits.

Features
• Automatically activates when you arrive at school
• Restricts distracting apps during school hours
• Keeps approved educational and essential apps available per your school&#039;s phone policy
• Automatically turns off when the school day ends

Privacy First
Your privacy matters.

The Commons never accesses your messages, browsing history, photos, social media content, or location history.

## The Commons Reviews in United States

### *---- "Malware"
This is essentially malware it gives students a VPN that tracks you 24/7 which is a gross overreach of privacy. it’s a weird startup that no one knows about and their privacy policy contradicts itself. Me and my fellow peers are very suspicious of it. Apple needs to review it before sending it out to the public.
-- tetsuo262001, 2025-08-12

### ***** "Don’t want it but probably need it…"
I don’t like the idea of being blocked from social media during school hours…. But i know it’s something I need so that I can focus on school and pass all my classes so my parents don’t send me to summer school.
-- Noobie151, 2025-07-31

### *---- "This app does not let me use my phone correctly"
This app does not let me use my phone correctly. When I leave the country, the VPN doesn’t allow me to use my Apple Pay or access half of my things on my device. It’s very unnecessary indefinitely has privacy concerns.
-- funitamsnjd, 2025-07-30

### ***** "Ok fine, I need it"
… 👻
-- awesgt, 2025-07-25

### *---- "Unnecessary"
This program has a lot of unnecessary functions such as eliminating the user and eating the phone. Additionally, it intrudes on the privacy of young children and sells your information. Do not recommend!
-- Leader of Los Angeles, 2025-07-25

### *---- "Terrible app I hate the idea of this"
I get that people want scrolling to stop whatever stay of are phones live a good life yay. But the way that this has been forced upon me as a thing is completely outrageous and my school has no right to have permissions over my phone. I pray everyday that this monstrosity of an app I sent taking my data.
-- Burly hass, 2025-07-25

### *---- "Nah"
This app is not it gang
