An agreement with yourself

Every blocker hands you the key.This one hands it to your list.

Consigo is a to-do list and an app blocker in one. Commit to today's list, and the apps that eat your day go behind a shield until you close the day out.

Coming to the App Store

iPhone. iOS 17 and later.

The Consigo Today screen while planning, dated Fri 14 Aug. CURRENT STREAK reads 30 days. Two draft items — “Ship the pricing page” and “Run 5k” — and a third row still open, “Add something”. A large HOLD TO COMMIT button sits above the tab bar. — Hold two seconds. That's the commitment.

You've beaten every blocker you've installed.

“I will get around the built in limits and any individual app blocker without even thinking.”

“I just go in and change the time from 1 hour to 2 hours.”

“It was always just as easy to delete the blocker as it was to install it.”

Real lines from real reviews of the big blocker apps.

The problem was never willpower. It's that every blocker gives you the key.

The terms, in four screens.

One day, start to finish. Every frame below is the app, not a mockup.

What it can't do.

A blocked app goes quiet — notifications and all.

That's how blocking works on iOS. It isn't a choice we made and it isn't one we can undo. Better you hear it here than find out mid-session.

When you close the day, it releases. Every time.

A blocker that fails to hand back what you've earned is worse than no blocker at all. Reliability isn't a feature here. It's the product.

Why writing it down first is the part that works.

Consigo is a commitment device: you set the terms while you're clear-headed, and going back on them costs something. That shape has been studied for decades.

Ariely and Wertenbroch (Psychological Science, 2002): people will voluntarily set costly deadlines on themselves to beat their own procrastination, and those self-imposed deadlines improved how well they performed.
Giné, Karlan and Zinman (American Economic Journal: Applied Economics, 2010): smokers offered a savings account they'd forfeit on failing a nicotine test six months later were measurably more likely to pass — and still passing six months after that.

No study has been run on Consigo. We'll say so until one is. What's studied is the shape: decide first, make the exit cost something, and you do the thing more often than you would have.

Consigo's record screen. CURRENT STREAK reads 31 DAYS (YOUR BEST). An ALL TIME block since 30 Jun lists 42 sessions completed, 86 tasks completed, 0 emergency unlocks this month. Below, a month calendar for August 2026 — 14 of 14 won, 0 off — and the start of HOURS YOU KEEP. — Every session, with its outcome

The record, and the streak it keeps.

Consecutive days you made a commitment and kept it. One kept day is one day, whether it held 1 item or 14 — it counts days you kept your word, never work done.

Nothing protects it.

No freeze, no repair, no second chance for sale. A number you can buy your way out of isn't evidence of anything.

Days off, free on both plans.

Declare the weekdays that carry no obligation, and specific dates too. A day off removes the obligation to promise. It never removes the consequence of breaking one.

Every reset is written down, with its reason.

If the app ever takes a run it shouldn't have, the log is the receipt you send us.

Consigo's shelf screen. The title reads The shelf, 2 parked. Two lines: “Fix the bike light” and “Renew the passport”, both aged today. A field reads “Park something for later”, with no remaining count. Copy under it: “Park anything you like. Nothing joins today's list — today is closed.” — Two parked · sweeps at 10 days

The shelf, for everything you haven't promised.

Things you thought of but haven't committed to land here, so they stop living in some other app without becoming the guilt pile this whole thing exists to avoid.

It sweeps itself.

You choose how long a line may sit there — 3 to 14 days, 10 to start. When its time is up it goes, and your record says NEVER DONE. Identical on both plans.

No deadlines. Deliberately.

A deadline is a promise, and the shelf is where the things you haven't promised go. Anything with a real clock on it belongs on today's list, committed.

No account. No login. Nothing we can read.

There's no signup and no login screen. Your record backs up to your own iCloud — free, on both plans — where it stays yours and we can't read it. There's no export, and no copy of it on a server of ours, because there is no server of ours. One company other than Apple does get data from the app: RevenueCat, which runs our subscriptions. Its software checks in when the app opens and every time you come back to it — for everyone, not just subscribers — and sends device and app details, including a device identifier. Never a name, never an email, never your list, your record, or which apps you block. The privacy policy sets out exactly what it sends.

Do what you said you would.

The free plan blocks at full strength: one committed session a day, two items in it, seven shelf lines, your streak, every session you've ever logged, and the same three emergency unlocks a month Pro gets. Nothing to sign up for.
