01
The phone key
A wooden token with an NFC chip inside. Tap it to your iPhone and your distracting apps go quiet behind Focus. Tap again and they come back. A ritual, not a lock.
$39 · First batch of 50
Hearth · A Lantern Club object
One tap puts the phone to bed.
The Hearth Key is a beautiful wooden token with an NFC chip inside. Tap it to your iPhone and your distracting apps go quiet. Tap again when you're ready to come back.
First batch of 50. $39. Coming 2027, the email list hears first.
The phone by the bed.

The ritual
No apps to install. No accounts. Your phone already knows how to do this, the key just gives you a reason to.
01
Set it up once
Scan your key with the Shortcuts app and link it to a Focus mode. Takes 30 seconds. We send a video that walks you through it.
02
Tap to rest
Dinner, deep work, bedtime, a Lantern night. Tap the key and your problem apps disappear behind Focus. The phone is still there for calls and maps.
03
Tap to return
Tap again and everything comes back. You're in control the whole time. The key is a ritual, not a lock.
Honest by design
The Hearth Key won't stop you from overriding it. Nothing short of a lockbox can. What it does is give the moment a physical anchor: a small, beautiful object that marks the choice to be present. That's what makes it stick.
Questions
Does it work with Android?
The key is an NFC tag, so Android phones can read it, but the one-tap Focus automation is an iPhone Shortcuts feature. Batch one is built for iPhone. Android support is on the roadmap.
What if I lose the key?
Your Focus mode still works manually from Control Center. The key is a shortcut, not the thing itself. And replacements will be available.
Can I really not override it?
You can, and that's the point. The key is a ritual object, not a punishment device. It works because you chose it, not because it forced you.
When do keys ship?
Batch one ships after the prototype run wraps. The email list gets the ship date first and first dibs on all 50.
What's coming next?
The Hearth phone bed (a little wooden bed for your phone, with a charging slot), and Lent phone-fast kits for churches in 2027.
First batch: 50 keys
