Analog Anchor

Analog Anchor helps you build focus, intentional habits, and daily discipline through real-world physical anchors and structured routines. Instead of relying on willpower alone, Analog Anchor pairs your digital boundaries with physical actions—such as scanning an NFC anchor tag, completing a walking or timed routine, and maintaining daily focus streaks. KEY FEATURES • Physical Anchor Routines (SET): Start and complete structured focus sessions using physical NFC anchor tags, movement steps, or timed routines. • Protected App Boundaries (CONTROL): Choose specific distracting apps on your phone to pause during active routines or protect with a conscious reflection timer before opening. • Intentional Access Delays: Replace impulsive app opening with a calm waiting period, reflection prompt, or daily opening limit. • Progress & Points (STATS): Track completed routines, focus streaks, and local app opening counts right on your device. • Bilingual Interface: Full support for English and Arabic. ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE API DISCLOSURE (Zenith System Monitor) Analog Anchor optionally uses the Android AccessibilityService API (listed in Android Accessibility settings as "Zenith System Monitor") solely to support its user-configured Protected Apps and focus boundary features in the CONTROL tab: 1. Why AccessibilityService Is Used: • To detect when a user-selected protected app is opened in the foreground so Analog Anchor can display your chosen waiting timer, reflection prompt, or active routine screen. • To protect your active focus boundaries by applying a user-chosen cooldown timer when accessing system settings during an active protection period. 2. User Control & Consent: • The Accessibility service ("Zenith System Monitor") is disabled by default and is completely optional. • Before navigating to Android Accessibility settings, Analog Anchor displays an in-app Prominent Disclosure explaining how the service works, requiring your explicit agreement ("Agree and open settings" or "Not now"). • You can disable "Zenith System Monitor" at any time in Android Settings > Accessibility > Installed apps (or Downloaded apps) > Zenith System Monitor. 3. Privacy & Local-Only Data Handling: • All foreground app detection happens strictly locally on your device in real time. • Analog Anchor does NOT use the AccessibilityService API to read personal messages, capture passwords, record audio, or modify user settings without permission. • App launch counts and routine records are stored locally on your phone only. No personal or sensitive Accessibility data is collected, transmitted off your device, or shared with third parties.
