For Keyholders
Somebody trusted you with this. Here’s the whole job.
Someone you know has blocked some apps on their own phone, on purpose, and then made it so they can’t undo it. They sent you a link because you’re the undo.
What you actually do
Your phone buzzes while you’re doing something else. They’re asking to get in. They’re tired, and twenty minutes feels to them like it would fix everything. You’re reading it with a clear head, which is the whole reason they picked you. You say yes, or you say ten, or you say not tonight. Then you go back to your evening. About four seconds.
Saying no is the job
Holding isn’t a punishment, and Warden never dresses it up as one. On their side a hold reads “still locked, streak intact”, never “denied”.
The one thing worth avoiding is saying yes every time. They picked you over the friend who says yes to everything, and they knew what they were doing. Warden gives you a quiet nudge if you start drifting that way.
What it costs you
- Setup
- About a minute
- Price
- Nothing, ever
- Time per request
- About four seconds
- Requests you can miss
- All of them, safely
You’ll never see a price, a trial, or an upgrade prompt. You’re doing someone a favour, and we’re not going to charge you for it.
What you can see about them
How many days they’ve kept, and the requests they send you. Nothing else.
- Not which apps they blocked. Warden can’t read those either.
- Not what time they use their phone, or how much.
- Not their location, their messages, or anything else on the device.
If you miss one
Nothing bad happens. You were asleep, or driving, or eating dinner. After thirty minutes the request closes itself and they stay locked, which is exactly what they asked you to help with.
You aren’t on call. If it’s a real emergency they have an override that works instantly, without you.
If it stops suiting you
Hand the key back whenever you like. The app makes it easy, and it’s a fair thing to do. They’re told, their blocking carries on, and they can ask someone else.
