heim app icon: a house inside a ring

heim

Your phone rests at home.

heim draws a quiet zone around the places that matter — your home, the cabin — and while you're inside it, every app except the few you allow rests behind a shield. Step outside and everything wakes up again.

No sessions to start. No timers. No willpower required at 9pm.

How it works

Hard mode

For the days when willpower isn't enough: hard mode seals your allowed apps and your zones while the shield is up. No snooze button. No override. Physically leaving the zone is the only key — and heim asks you twice before you arm it.

Support

Questions, problems, ideas? Write to — you'll reach the person who built it.

Before reporting a zone that reacts slowly: iOS delivers geofence crossings with a few minutes of latency by design; heim also self-corrects whenever you unlock your phone.
