A LITTLE LESS PHONE. A LITTLE MORE BOOK.
You meant to read. Then you picked up your phone.
InkHour blocks distracting apps during your reading time, so reaching for your phone becomes reaching for your book.

A SMALL CHANGE IN WHAT YOU REACH FOR
Before the morning scroll. After the day is done. Somewhere in between. You choose the time. InkHour helps you keep it.
THE RITUAL
Three small steps between you and a good book.
A real boundary, with a way out. Hold for five seconds if you need to end a sitting early.

Your day. Your pace.

Check in. Then return to your book.

One sitting or a few. It all adds up.

THE RECORD
One filled blot for every day you reach your goal. A quiet record of showing up, and a reason to come back tomorrow.
Your record stays on your device.
Your name, books and notes stay out of analytics.
THE SHELF
Paperbacks, hardbacks, your favourite e-reader. Read what you love. InkHour keeps the time and remembers the book.
Choose a current book once. Switch whenever you like. Find a cover with Open Library or keep a simple InkHour cover.

You can set daily reading times or choose When I’m ready and start a sitting yourself. Completed sittings add up toward the same daily goal.
You can keep essential apps available. To end a sitting early, hold the bypass button for five seconds. An early ending does not credit that sitting.
The minutes from completed reading sittings. Hit or pass your daily goal to earn one filled blot for that day. Extra reading still counts. InkHour tracks the time you commit, not which pages you read.
