Youth Lost
On Max: stolen time as one blunt weekly line, named to the app that took it.

03 · Horos
It comes to you.
Most blockers wait for you to set a limit. Horos learns yours, then steps in on its own. You are told, not asked.

Step 01 / 05
Focus Blocks.
Standing windows over the apps you pick: work, study, wind-down, sleep. Once one is running it cannot be switched off. Need in mid-window? Put it to the Judge. Aegin writes some of them for you, from your purpose.
CAPACITYFree 2 · Pro and Max 8
Step 02 / 05
Rituals.
Put a time on a habit or a to-do and it stops being a reminder you can swipe away. Aegin warns you shortly before, then holds the phone aside for a few minutes so you do the thing.

Step 03 / 05
Aegin suggests.
Cards built from your own numbers: a Charge window worth moving, a Focus Block worth adding, a wind-down worth having. Each one shows the facts behind it. Take it in a tap. Nothing applies itself.
EVIDENCEOn every card
Step 04 / 05
Aegin AI.
One mind that reads your real numbers before it says anything. Ask where your week went. Tell it to lock an app for the next hour or move today's Charge, and it does. On Pro and Max it runs your to-dos, habits and goals too.

Q_01Do I have to set a screen-time limit?
No. Aegin never asks you for a daily screen-time goal or a hard line. You name a purpose, and Aegin writes each day's Charge from it. The one number you can set yourself is an App Allowance, and only if you want one.
Q_02What counts as stolen time?
Minutes the feeds take from your purpose: short video, social, streaming, games. Maps, messages and the work you opened on purpose never count against you. Total screen time is still one tap deeper, for honesty. Stolen time is the number on Home.
Q_03Can I get out in a real emergency?
Yes, deliberately. Any app Aegin has shut can be pleaded for: say why, sit through a 60-second wait and one quick problem, and the Judge rules. A focus session keeps the phone dialer open and carries two emergency exits a week. Skip today stands a Charge's walls down until tomorrow.
Q_04What data do you actually see?
Which apps you use and for how long, never what's on the screen. On Android, for a few named browsers, it also reads the address bar, so an app's website is caught too. Your purpose, your pleas and what you tell Aegin AI. Sleep and heart rate only if you link Apple Health or Health Connect, and only Max uses them in your read.
Q_05Can my friends see everything?
No. Friends who follow each other see each other's willpower move. A group you join shares one willpower chart, and if the group allows it and you opt in, your recent verdicts: the app and the outcome. Nobody sees the text of your pleas or the Judge's reasoning. You pick who you follow and which groups you join.
Q_06Does it get harder when I slip?
Where it should. The Judge reads your recent record on every plea, so a rough week makes the next case harder and a steady one buys you the benefit of the doubt. The limits Horos learns step down on the days you hold and stay put on the days you don't.
Q_07Is there a free trial?
Free is the trial. It needs no card and doesn't expire. If it doesn't sell you on the rest, a 14-day paid trial wouldn't either.
Q_08Can I export or delete my data?
Delete anytime from Settings, then Account. Your account closes at once and is erased for good after 90 days, unless you sign back in first to keep it. Backups clear within 90 days too. For a copy of your data, email support@aegin.live on any tier. If your local law gives you a portability right, you get the raw data you gave us.
Q_09Can I cancel? Refund?
Cancel anytime from your account or Apple/Google settings. No retention call, no email gauntlet. Refunds: no. Free is your evaluation period, paying is the bet. If we double-charged or the service genuinely broke, that's different and we'll fix it. Full policy on /legal/refund.
