What is TaskGate?
TaskGate helps you slow down before opening distracting apps. When you try to launch a gated app, it intercepts the action and asks you to finish a quick mini-task first, like a breathing exercise, reflection, or flashcard. You can choose which apps to gate, mix in partner apps through deep links, and see usage analytics to track your progress. It’s built to turn impulsive phone use into more intentional habits without fully blocking the apps you need.
