If your phone is open for notes, it should not also get to recruit you into a 26-message group-chat recap.

Swing helps you protect the apps that distract you during class. It adds a funny interruption before the tap becomes a full detour from the thing you showed up for.

1. Pick the apps that pull you in

Choose the apps that pull you out of class fastest. Keep notes, maps, and the useful stuff available; protect the usual offenders.

2. Finish the iPhone setup

Follow Swing’s on-screen permission setup. This lets Swing show its interruption before your protected app opens, instead of asking your half-awake thumb to be the whole plan.

3. Let Swing catch the first tap

When you tap a protected app, Swing makes you pause before the feed or chat gets a free seat in the lecture.

4. Make the call

Close it, or unblock it if there is a real reason. The point is not punishment; it is keeping your attention where you put it.

Quick answers

Do I have to delete the app?

No. Swing adds an interruption before a protected app opens. Your app, account, and data stay on your iPhone.

Can I still use it when I need to?

Yep. You choose whether to leave the app or unblock it for a while. Swing is there to interrupt the reflex, not run your life.

What should I protect first?

Start with the app that most often turns a quick check into a missing hour. One honest choice beats a huge list you will never use.
