Password Locker

Tried Opal, Freedom, Or A Dumb Phone… Only To Cave Again?

We built Password Locker—for people who’ve already tried everything else to break free from screen addiction!

other blockers aren't enough

You can shut them off in 3 taps.

screen time's 4-digit lock

You know it by heart at setup.

Problems at every turn…

Here’s Why Other Blockers Don’t Work

All of them claim to “save you 6+ hours per day”, BUT…

Every one of them breaks the same way: settings > off.

opal is obsolete

Disable Screen Time in Settings, and it’s game over — In 5 seconds or less the $20/month you paid is wasted.

Plus, the Apple ID override? Still wide open.

Brick is broken

Tap the brick on the screen, and your phone is back to being a total distraction…

And what’s worse, it has all the same Screen Time and Apple ID workarounds…

freedom isn't foolproof

Freedom’s flaw? It’s built for the willing.
But when you’re desperate to scroll, all it takes is a quick “End Session” — no password, no delay.

And scheduled blocks? Easily skipped or altered.
Feels more like a suggestion than a safeguard.

Plus, all the Screen Time and Apple ID issues still exist!

(Real people, real success!)

Relief Is Just A Signup Away!

I have Freedom, which I like in theory. But I just have no self control, and I can change the settings during the day when it’s not locked… It’s pretty pathetic.

I use Password Locker to hide the password to my Freedom app and Apple Screen Time settings. IT WORKS SO WELL!

You genuinely saved my life with this. I fell into a dark hole of watching youtube for like 10h a day.

I needed a way to block stuff on my phone and not know the password while simultaneously being the one to type it in. I found your website and it was exactly what I had envisioned. Everything is working perfectly and I am out of the hole.

You have no idea how valuable of a service this is for people like me with very bad impulse control and addictive tendencies. Now I can finally get my life together. Never stop providing this service.

This was exactly what I was looking for. Your solution is perfect, especially for people that want to maximize their productivity but think that it is inconvenient or not that reliable to hand the password over to another person as you always have to make sure that the other person won’t reveal you the password when coming up with a proper excuse.

Best solution I’ve tried to make yourself accountable to the goals you set for yourself in screentime. Creates just enough friction day to day to stick with it.

If I need a an app for work, etc – easy enough to retrieve pin and add what I need. Very in tune with the book “Atomic Habits”, for a bad habit: “make it difficult”. Great job!

Thank you for this. Genius way to bypass apples stupid 4 digit passcode limit for screen time. Works like a charm. Life changing stuff. I can tell you’ve likely had all the same issues I’ve had giving friends passcodes. Hats off to you mate.

The ingenious method that you guys use to let users enter the 4 digit passcode without them consciously remembering it is awesome.

Why This Is Different

1. We Set Up Screen Time So You Can’t Cheat

We walk you through a foolproof setup using a passcode you won’t remember — and a process that locks down your Settings menu.

2. We Securely Store Your Passwords Behind a Boring Task

If you want your passcode back, you’ll have to earn it — solving a tedious challenge that takes 10 to 60 minutes (you can set the duration). By the time you’re halfway through your impulse is over!

All passcodes are stored with the highest levels of encryption.

3. No Apple ID Override, No Friends, No Dumb Phone

We pair your setup with a dummy Apple ID, making it impossible to override your restrictions through iCloud.

And yes — Password Locker works with your favorite blockers too.

And It Gets Better With

Unlocked periods for leisure

Sometimes discipline means planned flexibility.
Password Locker allows short, intentional breaks — fully scheduled and monitored — so users can enjoy downtime without losing control.

You stay in charge, not your impulses.

Unlock after a certain date

Set it and forget it.

With time-based unlocks, you can schedule access to apps or features after a specific date — perfect for detox periods, deadlines, or temporary focus sprints.
No early access. No cheating.

Blocking Additional Distractions

iOS Screen Time doesn’t let you block new apps or distractions unless you manually enter the passcode — a process that’s intentionally slow and tedious (for good reason). But what if you just want to add a new blocker without jumping through hoops?

Here’s the smart workaround:
Set a brief window once a week — say, Tuesdays from 11:04–11:06am — when the Screen Time passcode becomes temporarily accessible.

That way, if you discover a new distraction midweek, you know exactly when your next opportunity is to update your block list — without compromising your entire setup or fully disabling Screen Time.

It’s the safe way to adapt without slipping back into bad habits.

Even if Password Locker’s servers go down, you’re not locked out. Offline Retrieval gives you a secure, local fallback to regain access — without needing to connect to our systems.

No outages. No excuses. You stay in control.

Need urgent access—for work or legit emergencies? Turn this on. Set a deterrent fee (e.g. $20), and unlock passwords instantly—no tedious workaround or delay.

It’s not a backdoor—it’s a controlled override for moments that actually matter.

Your Questions, Answered

what is password-locker

It’s a tool for people who are serious about staying off their phones. It holds your Screen Time passcode (or anything else) and makes it intentionally hard to get back — so you don’t sabotage yourself when you’re bored, stressed, or looking for dopamine.

How does retrieval work?

You choose one of these retrieval methods:

Slow Reveal – Shows the passcode one digit at a time, with a timed delay between each. You’ll need to be patient and deliberate.
Scheduled Unlock – Pick a random window (e.g., Tuesdays at 11:04 AM) where retrieval is allowed. Outside that, no access.
Emergency Access – Set a dollar amount. Pay to get it instantly. It’s for actual emergencies — not impulsive scrolling.
Offline Retrieval – If our servers are ever down, you still have a local way to recover. You’re never locked out permanently.

Why not just use Screen Time alone?

Because Screen Time is easy to bypass. You can guess the code, reset it, or just disable it. Password Locker removes that option — it adds friction and consequences so your willpower isn’t the only thing keeping you on track.

What if I need to change my blocks?

You can schedule a short window once a week where the passcode is accessible. That’s your chance to make legit updates. No full unlocks. No temptation 24/7.

Can I use it on more than one device?

Yes — just make sure the retrieval method you set up works from both. Most people use it for their iPhone or iPad only.

How do you store my passcodes?

Securely—with industry-standard encryption:

All your passcodes are encrypted using AES‑128, the same reliable standard used in countless secure systems password-locker.compassword-locker.com.
You choose whether the encrypted data is kept in the cloud (on Password Locker’s servers) or stored locally via Offline Retrieval.
If you opt out of cloud storage, the data never leaves your device—only you hold it, and even then only in encrypted form password-locker.compassword-locker.com.

Bottom line:
We don’t sell your data. We don’t leak it. It stays encrypted in a way you control—cloud or offline—using top-tier crypto.
