Never miss twice. Your streak follows that rule, so one missed day doesn’t break it.

Unlocked. Go on.

A quest earns you 15, 30 or 60 minutes, and you can bank extra time for later, up to 120 minutes. With a minute left, Pixie peeks in to warn you. Then the lock comes back and Pixie is on the door again.

Need an app right now? Quick Pass: 10 minutes, no quest, 3 times a day. You’re never stuck.

See what pulls you.

Your apps shows which locked app pulls at you most, how many times Pixie stopped you, and your minutes a day before Pixie and now.
