HalalScreen is an iOS app that locks addictive apps behind dhikr. When you open a blocked app, a Shield View appears where you count 33 SubhanAllah with haptic feedback. Complete your dhikr, then scroll.

What is HalalScreen trying to help with?

HalalScreen helps people build more halal screen time by putting a short dhikr gate before the apps that usually lead to distraction. The goal is to pause, remember Allah, and unlock with intention.

How does the dhikr gate work?

When you tap a locked app, the Shield View appears before the app opens. Complete 33 SubhanAllah, then the app unlocks.

Yes. HalalScreen is free with no ads and no tracking. Your dhikr data stays on your device. No account required.

How is HalalScreen different from other Islamic apps?

HalalScreen is an active gate, not a passive reminder. The dhikr happens before the feed appears, not after distraction has already started.

What is the 33 SubhanAllah count based on?

The 33-33-34 tasbih after salah is prescribed by the Prophet (PBUH) and recorded in Sahih Muslim and Sahih Bukhari. HalalScreen uses this same Sunnah count as the default dhikr gate.

Why Gate Safari

Safari is the default browser on every iPhone, and its distraction profile is different from any single app. You do not open Safari to browse one site. You open it and end up on five. A search for a recipe becomes a news article becomes a shopping comparison becomes 30 minutes of scattered attention. Unlike social media apps, Safari does not have an algorithm steering your behavior. But the open web has something equally powerful: unlimited options. Every link is a doorway to another link. The browser is where focused intent most easily becomes unfocused wandering. Gating Safari behind dhikr is not about blocking the internet. It is about placing a moment of remembrance before the most open-ended app on your phone. Whatever you are about to search for, read, or buy, it begins with SubhanAllah.
