How Extreme Mode works
A missed day resets the challenge on the next day. Selected apps can stay blocked until the habit is completed, using iOS Screen Time and Family Controls.
Put the phone after the habit
Instead of deciding every day whether to stop scrolling and start, make the order automatic: finish a small, clear habit first, then use distracting apps.
Habits suited to Extreme Mode
It works well for small daily tasks and focused preparation periods. Habits that need rest days or happen irregularly may fit Normal or Hard Mode better.
