BrainGate: Focus Math Blocker

**Stop mindless scrolling. Reclaim your focus. Master your time.**

We’ve all been there: you open your phone for a quick check, and thirty minutes later, you’re still scrolling. **BrainGate** is designed to break that cycle by introducing "forced friction"—a deliberate pause between you and your most distracting apps.

Unlike traditional blockers that you can simply tap to bypass, BrainGate requires you to engage your brain. To unlock a blocked app, you must solve three math problems. This small mental shift is often all it takes to snap out of "autopilot" and get back to what you intended to do.

### How It Works
1. **Gate Your Apps**: Select the apps and categories that distract you most.
2. **Face the Challenge**: When you try to open a blocked app, BrainGate presents a math puzzle.
3. **Earn Your Time**: Solve the challenges to unlock the app for a set duration (5 to 60 minutes).
4. **Build the Habit**: Over time, your brain learns to associate scrolling with effort, naturally reducing your screen time.

### Key Features
