CHOREBLOCK

Tidy up. Unlock your apps.

The moment a chore comes due, ChoreBlock locks your distracting apps — and they stay locked until it's done, proven by a live photo an AI verifies in seconds. Less time scrolling, a home that stays tidy, and no willpower required.

How it works

Three steps between you and your apps — less screen time and a tidier home, every single day.

1
A clean, empty kitchen sink — the baseline photo Your baseline

Set your chores

Pick your chores and snap a photo of each spot looking tidy. That photo becomes your ‘clean’ baseline.

2
A kitchen sink full of dirty dishes

When a chore is due, apps are locked

Each chore has its own rhythm — dishes daily, the dog walk twice a day. The moment one is due, your chosen apps lock automatically.

Prove it with a photo

Do the chore, snap a live photo, and AI compares it to your baseline. Pass the check and your apps unlock until the next chore comes due.

Chores that actually count

Every chore is something a single photo can honestly verify — visible tidiness, not vague promises.

A neatly made bed Made bed Covers up, pillows set
A clear bathroom counter with a clean basin Bathroom counter Clutter cleared
An open, emptied dishwasher Empty dishwasher Racks cleared out

Your photos are never stored

Every photo is checked and immediately discarded — never saved, never logged, never used to train anything. Capture is camera-only, so old photos from your library can't be used to cheat.
