Meet Pauseway · Our first app

A little space between impulse and action.

It’s easy to open an app without deciding to. Pauseway helps you notice the moment, take a breath, and choose what happens next.

Coming soon for iPhone and iPad.

Small moments. Deliberate choices.

Make room for intention.

Choose your apps.

Pick the apps you want to be more intentional about and choose a daily time for each. Your orientation week gives you room to try those times and adjust them.

Pause and decide.

As you approach your daily time, brief breathing pauses and reflection prompts make space for a deliberate choice. Then choose how long you want to use the app.

Find your pace.

Look back on your week and decide what comes next. Keep daily times steady, increase them, or reduce them—with individual adjustments when you need them.

Built around everyday life

Support that leaves room
for you.

See your usage over time.

Today and Insights bring your coached apps and usage trends together. Weekly check-ins help you reflect on the week and choose your next daily times.

Give work its own boundaries.

Choose a work schedule and coach selected work apps outside those hours. Work time and personal app time can have different needs.

Notice how you’re feeling.

Feeling check-ins make room to notice your mood. Some pauses ask for a check-in before you continue. Saving feelings to Apple Health is a separate, optional choice.

Make it fit your day.

Adjust daily times, choose optional reminders, and explore weekend allowances or stronger pauses. Brief coaching is the default, with limits on substantial interruptions.

Considered from the start

Personal reflection
deserves care.

Coaching decisions are made on your device. With Pauseway Pro, you can choose to sync limits and usage through your private iCloud. Written reflections and feeling check-ins stay on the device where you record them; saving feelings to Apple Health is a separate choice. No Pauseway account is required.

The current app has no advertising or third-party analytics SDKs.

How Pauseway handles data

A few things to know

Before you try it.

  • Pauseway requires iOS or iPadOS 26.4 or later.
  • Screen Time access is required. You choose the apps to coach in Apple’s picker, and Apple’s Screen Time reporting remains available.
  • Selected apps can be covered by a Screen Time shield—a pause screen before you continue. While an app is coached, iOS hides its notifications and may also restrict its website in Safari. Leave out apps you need for messages or calls.
  • Usage figures are estimates. Usage information and optional private iCloud sync can take time to update.
