TigerGenie

TigerGenie: Focus Mode with One Tap TigerGenie is a simple and powerful tool that helps families disconnect from phones and reconnect with each other. With one tap of a tiny NFC-enabled keychain, TigerGenie starts Focus Mode and pauses distracting apps. That physical tap creates a deliberate pause that helps break compulsive phone checking. Whether it is family dinner, study time, or bedtime, TigerGenie helps everyone stay present by reducing screen distractions. Key Features - One-tap Focus Mode: Tap the TigerGenie NFC tag to start a focus session in seconds. - Custom app blocking: Choose which apps to pause, such as social media, games, or streaming apps. - Family-friendly routine: Keep the tag at the table or desk and make focus a shared daily habit. - Progress tracking: See focus activity and build healthier screen-time patterns over time. - Simple setup: Install the app, select apps to block, and tap the tag. - No subscription required: Core experience is available without recurring fees. Benefits for Families - Homework without distractions: Block tempting apps during study sessions. - More quality time: Keep phones out of family moments and conversations. - Healthy modeling: Parents and kids can practice focus habits together. Why TigerGenie Works TigerGenie uses the science of friction. A physical action (tapping the NFC tag) adds a small barrier that interrupts automatic scrolling and encourages intentional choices. Because Focus Mode starts from a deliberate real-world action, it is easier to build lasting habits. Accessibility on Android (AccessibilityService) On Android, TigerGenie uses the AccessibilityService API only for Focus Mode/app blocking behavior after the user enables it in system settings. - TigerGenie listens for app/window state changes to know which app is currently in the foreground. - During an active focus session, if a user opens an app they selected to block, TigerGenie can return the user to the Home screen. - This service is user-controlled and can be turned off at any time in Settings -> Accessibility -> Installed apps -> TigerGenie. - TigerGenie does not use AccessibilityService to change system settings without consent, bypass Android privacy controls, or record call audio. - For this blocking feature, TigerGenie does not read or collect on-screen text, typed content, or passwords.
