Donera: Screen Time Control
Today's one thing, done first. Then your apps open.
Donera locks the apps that pull you away until today's most important thing is done. Pick one Highlight each morning, hold the ring to finish, and your apps open. Stack up your days done, earn your rank. No streaks, no guilt. Nothing leaves your phone.
Hi Product Hunt, maker here. This is a relaunch: Donera has been rebuilt from the ground up since we were last here.
The short version of what I learned from the first launch: people didn't drop off because they couldn't lock their apps. They dropped off because they never finished anything. Locking was easy. Finishing was the hard part, and the old app treated it as a checkbox.
So 3.1 is built around the moment of finishing.
You pick one Highlight in the morning. Your chosen apps stay locked. When it's done, you hold the ring for a second, the haptics build, the lock opens and your apps light back up. That's the whole reward. Not confetti, not points. Your phone.
The other big change is Ranks. I killed streaks. A streak is a thing you lose, and I watched people miss one day and never come back, because the app greeted them with a zero. Now every finished day counts, the count only goes up, and your days done get a name: Cultivation, Wuxia, Myth or Arcane ladders, from Mortal to Eternal, or write your own. Miss a day and nothing is taken away.
Also new: a Home that only answers three questions (is it locked, what am I doing, what's next), multi-day plans that actually start today, AI-drafted plans, Quick Break with a limit you set, and Ideas for things that don't have a date yet.
Honest notes: it's iOS only, built on Apple's Screen Time API. Free gets you the full loop with up to 3 locked apps and the starter plan. Pro adds unlimited apps, AI plans and custom rank ladders. Everything stays on your device, no account, no cloud.
Two things I'd love your take on:
1. Does "ranks instead of streaks" make sense to you, or does it read as a gimmick?
2. What's the one thing you keep not doing? I'm building the plan library from real answers.
I'll be here all day. Thanks for looking.
