Protect the hour you set aside.

EvoCat’s hard block disables regular breaks and locks editing of a running scheduled block. A separate weekly emergency pass allows a 1–15 minute pause during an active scheduled hard block. Set a recurring study block, protect bedtime or start a manual session when it is time to get something done.

Read the hard-block and emergency-pass rules.

Earn the break at the moment you want it.

Choose a challenge method and meet your cat before returning to the feed. Solve a puzzle, finish a push-up race, answer a quiz or take a slow breath. After a successful challenge, choose a short break. The block returns automatically when the break ends.

Give your focus a visible reward.

Build toward 100 focus hours to unlock Level 2. Your chosen cat stays independent of your blocking method, so you can keep the companion you like with the rules you need. Screen-time insights and focus history help you follow the habit changes behind that milestone. Explore your progress in EvoCat.

Start with your own routine.

Try EvoCat with the apps and schedule you actually want to protect. No EvoCat account is required, and camera video used to count push-ups stays on your device. A free trial is available for eligible subscribers; check its duration and renewal terms in the app. Free-trial details.
