For ADHD

Take the decision out of the moment.

Blockers you can switch off yourself ask you to win the same argument every night. Second Key moves the exit to a person you trust, so stopping doesn’t depend on willpower at 11:47 pm.

External structure, on your terms.

You pick the apps and the hours. Your keyholder only decides early exits.

A pause, not a punishment.

Asking takes a reason and a moment — enough to notice what you were about to do.

Someone in the loop.

Knowing a person will read the request is often enough to put the phone down before asking.

Not a medical product.

Second Key is a focus tool. It doesn’t diagnose or treat anything.

How it works.

  1. 01

    Pick the apps.

    Instagram, TikTok, BGMI, YouTube — whichever ones take your nights. On iPhone, through Apple’s own Screen Time picker.

  2. 02

    Set the hours.

    Tonight by default: 9:30 pm to 7:00 am. Decide who can end it early — you after a delay, your keyholder, or nobody.

  3. 03

    Hand someone the key.

    A partner, a sibling, a study partner. Six characters and sixty seconds, on whatever phone they own.

  4. 04

    Hold.

    The shield goes up. Leaving early takes a reason and their answer — and every attempt to slip out lands on their phone.

Questions.

Why not just use Screen Time?
Screen Time ends with a button on your own screen. Second Key moves that decision to someone else, so there’s nothing to tap through in the moment.
What if I genuinely need an app during a block?
Ask for 5, 15 or 30 minutes with a reason. Your keyholder approves or declines, and approved apps re-lock on their own.
Is Second Key a treatment for ADHD?
No. It’s a focus tool, not a medical device, and it doesn’t diagnose or treat anything.

Close the gap.

When willpower is the hard part, give the exit to someone else.
