Frequently Asked Questions
How does BrainGuard work?
Select apps you want to guard. When you try to open them, BrainGuard prompts you to complete a guided breathing meditation. After finishing, you get 15 minutes of access before the apps are guarded again.
How long are the meditation sessions?
Sessions start at 60 seconds by default and can be customized from 60 seconds to 10 minutes. Hard Core Mode progressively increases the duration by 30 seconds with each unlock, capping at 15 minutes.
Can I skip the meditation?
Yes, you can tap the back button to exit the meditation screen. However, your apps will remain guarded until you complete a full meditation session. The choice is yours—meditate to unlock or take a break from the app entirely.
Does BrainGuard require a subscription?
