Lion Gatekeeper

A lion guards your screen until you take a break. Works on any site you choose. Real footage, no AI.

Lion Gatekeeper helps you stop doomscrolling and step away from the screen. When you hit the time limit you set, a lion climbs onto your screen and holds the gate until your break is over. It is a gentle, hard-to-ignore nudge, built for anyone who loses hours to social feeds, news, or "just one more tab." You decide where and when the lion shows up. Watch every site in the browser, use the built-in social presets, or add your own custom list of sites. Set your work limit and break length, and the lion handles the rest. With Lion Gatekeeper, you can: - Set a work-time limit and a break length that fit how you actually work - Apply it to every site, to social media presets, or to your own custom site list - Get a reliable nudge: time is counted only while you are actively on a watched site in the focused window, never in idle or background tabs - Keep your progress through refreshes, tab switches, and browser restarts - Choose your guardian: a lion or a tiger - Pet the big cat while you wait for a little moment of calm - Stay focused without dark, guilt-trip screens; the page stays visible behind the lion The lion is real footage of an actual animal, not AI-generated content. Privacy matters. Lion Gatekeeper runs entirely on your device. It does not collect, transmit, or sell any data. It has no accounts, no analytics, no advertising, and no tracking. Your browsing stays yours. Lion Gatekeeper is focused on one job: helping you take real breaks from the screen.
