What it does

Cloak allows you to hide selected from your iPhone & iPad, including the home screen, app library, notifications, and more. With Safe Zones, apps can automatically be hidden when you leave your home or work place.

If you find yourself spending too much time on social media, short-form videos, or games, Cape can help you stay focused by pausing excess app usage and restoring access at the right time.
