Screen Time · real orders · your own brokerage
Each open of Instagram buys a pass for $1 into AAPL — up to 3 a day, 15 min each.
↑ a real Doomo rule. You write it one tag at a time, then sign it.
Doomo shields the apps that eat your evenings behind Apple's Screen Time. Getting past the shield buys a timed pass — and the money buys stock you keep, in a brokerage account you already own. Doomo never touches it.
Shield, then a choice, then a real order.
01
The picker is nameless
Apple hands Doomo an opaque token — the app you shielded is unreadable by design. So Doomo asks, once, and remembers.
02
The open is priced first
Every number is on screen before you commit: the minutes you get, the dollars it costs, the ticker it buys. Then slide — or leave it closed.
03
A real order leaves
A fixed-dollar fractional order goes to a brokerage account you already own and already funded. The shares are yours; Doomo holds nothing.
Unretouched screenshots from the verification runs that shipped these changes. Every UI change in Doomo lands with a device screenshot in its pull request.
The friction has to buy something.
01
Shield the apps
Pick the apps that eat your evenings. Doomo shields them with Apple's Screen Time (Family Controls) framework, in self-monitoring mode — your own device, not anyone else's. The shield token stays on your phone and is never uploaded.
02
The open is a choice
Open a shielded app and you get a shield, not the feed: Unlock & Commit, or Leave it closed. Committing buys a timed pass for the minutes you allowed yourself. It does not remove the block — when the pass runs out, the shield comes back.
03
The pass buys stock
The money is a fixed-dollar fractional order into the ticker you chose, placed through SnapTrade into a brokerage account you already own. No in-app purchase, no subscription, no funding rail. Doomo never holds, receives or transmits your money.
Doomo never animates a purchase that didn't happen.
Cash short? It opens anyway, and says so.
Doomo never runs the count-up, the PLACING line or the paid stamp for an order it did not place. The break still opens. The screen says nothing was bought.
Market closed? The order waits for the bell.
A 9pm open rides the same pipeline as a noon one; the broker queues it until the opening bell. Nothing is gated or delayed — only the sentence Doomo says changes.
Pre-launch, and specific about it.
- First real order
- 25 Aug 2026
- $1.00 of AAPL at $309.71, placed from the phone through shield → unlock → the founder's own brokerage account, confirmed by the brokerage's own push notification.
- Held today
- $7.00
- Cost basis in AAPL, bought one open at a time, sitting in an account Doomo has no access to and earns nothing from.
- Apple entitlement
- 5 App IDs
- com.apple.developer.family-controls is granted per-App-ID by request, and it is the only reason app blocking is possible at all. Approved for LUMIC, INC. on the app and every Screen Time extension.
- Native, not a wrapper
- 7 targets
- Swift extensions on FamilyControls, ManagedSettings and DeviceActivity — shield configuration, shield action, activity monitor, usage report — plus a Live Activity and five widgets.
- Tests
- 3,512
- Passing across 226 files, measured 2026-08-28. 733 of them are guard tests: one named test per standing founder decision, so "where did that go?" is answered by a test name.
- On the App Store
- Not yet
- Three rejections so far. Two are resolved — an entity conversion, and a missing entitlement. The third named a single broker in the UI; the fix was architectural, and the review thread is still open.
- Users
- One
- The founder, on his own iPhone. No waitlist, no testers, no revenue — and Doomo is designed to earn nothing in v1.
One non-technical founder and an AI engineering stack.
41 pull requests merged on 28 August 2026, in eleven hours. 167 in four days. That pace is only survivable because the governance is stricter than the throughput.
The ledger is the law
A 402KB append-only decision ledger holds every founder ruling. Before any agent calls a difference "drift", it reads that file — a deletion recorded there is a decision, not a bug. It has a "Not yet decided" section, and resolving one of those alone is a violation, not initiative.
Guards are a requirements registry
733 guard tests, one per standing requirement, indexed by a meta-guard that fails the build if you add a guard without registering it. The doctrine, learned the hard way: a guard must check what RENDERS, not what is defined — a guard that greps a copy module passes green while two screens show nothing, which is worse than no guard, because it reads as covered.
Every guard is mutated by hand before it counts
Before a PR merges, an agent deliberately breaks the new code and confirms the guard fails, then records the tally in the PR — 17/17, 20/20. A mutation that survives means the guard is fake. This caught one: a swapped branch restored a false spending ceiling with the whole suite green. The condition was still there; the words were wrong.
Doomo isn't on the App Store yet.
There's no waitlist form here, because there's no waitlist behind it. Email the founder and you'll get the TestFlight build the day it opens, from a person, not a list.
vitaliy@fylyk.comDoomo is a screen-time app. LUMIC, INC. is not a broker, a broker-dealer or an investment adviser, gives no investment advice, and never holds, receives or transmits your money or securities. Orders are placed into a brokerage account you already own and already funded; account connectivity is provided by SnapTrade. Investing through Doomo is optional and off until you connect a brokerage — with none connected, every break is free. Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal.
