Great idea, I bought the LYT Tag as soon as it came out and I wasn’t disappointed…
App Store review · Read in full (French) ↗Thanks to the LYT Tag, I’ve changed my relationship with my phone: I use it less, and only for what really matters.
Customer reviewI train at the gym five times a week and I used to lose focus during my sessions. I use LYT to stay focused from start to finish and stop scrolling between sets.
Customer reviewAs a medical student, I was looking for a way to focus on my revision. I tried lots of apps like Opal and they didn’t work. LYT was a nice surprise: putting the tag in another room, or leaving it at home when I went to the library, forced me to focus on my studies.
Customer reviewMore than a hundred customers in France already trust LYT. Thank you!

FAQ
Frequently asked
questions
Does it work with my iPhone or Android?
Yes. The LYT Tag works with every iPhone running iOS 16.2 or later, and with Android phones running Android 8.0 or later.
Which apps can I block?
Any app installed on your phone: Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, Snapchat and more. You choose them in the LYT app in a few seconds.
How does the blocking work?
On iPhone, the tag triggers Apple’s Screen Time restrictions. The LYT Tag sends a signal to the app, which turns on the blocking profile you chose.
Do I need an internet connection?
No. Reading the tag and turning blocking on work completely offline. You only need a connection for the first setup and app updates.
What if I lose my tag?
The app keeps working normally on your phone, and you can order a new tag at any time. Your blocking profile is saved in the app.
When can I order in the UK or the US?
Very soon. Join the waitlist and you’ll be among the first to know when orders open, with the launch price of £44 / $49.
