Do you often get interrupted by phone notifications while working? Do you find yourself unconsciously opening social media and wasting precious time? Research shows that the average person checks their phone over 150 times a day, and it takes 23 minutes to regain focus after each interruption. Invis can help you break this vicious cycle and regain control of your time and attention.

Three Major Productivity Challenges for Modern Professionals

Phone Addiction

Social media, short videos, and games make it hard to resist checking your phone during work hours, seriously affecting productivity.

Time Management Out of Control

What was planned as 1 hour of work turns into 3 hours due to phone distractions, causing work progress to fall seriously behind.

Scattered Attention

Even without actively opening apps, phone notifications constantly interrupt your train of thought, preventing deep thinking and reducing work quality.

Create Work Configuration

Create a 'Work Mode' configuration in Invis and add all distracting apps to the hide list. You can create multiple configurations for different work scenarios, such as 'Deep Work', 'Meeting Mode', or 'Study Mode'.

Set Automation Rules

Use Invis's scheduling feature to automatically enable work mode during weekdays from 9:00-12:00 and 14:00-18:00. You can also use iOS Shortcuts for location-based automation: auto-hide entertainment apps when arriving at the office.

Build New Habits

Stick with it for 2-3 weeks to let your brain adapt to the new work mode. Check usage statistics weekly to observe your progress. You'll find that as distractions decrease, work efficiency significantly improves, and the time needed to complete tasks dramatically shortens.
