## Site Overview

The root homepage is about Alek Jałtuszyk, formally Aleksander Jałtuszyk. The /apps/ directory is
the chooser for products. Some app pages can live under this domain, and some
can route out to their own separate websites.

The current app split is:
- /: personal homepage placeholder
- /apps/: directory of apps and product sites
- /apps/PlanKept/: internal PlanKept page on this domain
- /apps/OverLit/: internal OverLit page with support and legal links on this domain
- https://voiceofself.life: external Voice of Self site

## Privacy Notes

The personal homepage, portfolio sections, and app directory are informational. PlanKept support and legal routes live on this domain, while the PlanKept wish-list action goes to an external form. Core plan data, proof-review inputs, app-side AI conversations, and permissions like Screen Time or Apple Health are intended to stay on device. OverLit has a small public page and an app-specific privacy policy that covers local gameplay data, support contact, AdMob ads, local developer house ads, privacy choices, and App Store privacy disclosures.

If someone joins the PlanKept wish list or contacts PlanKept support, the
website only receives the information they choose to send through the external
route or email channel.

## PlanKept Overview

PlanKept is a resolution enforcement app that motivates you with reminders, app limits, and proof-aware follow-through until the real-life goal is achieved. It is a local-first app by Alek Jałtuszyk with a genuinely useful free version, a 45-day Starter Trial for new users, one-time Starter Lifetime and Full Lifetime unlocks without a subscription, AI-assisted plan creation, manual Proof Review, Apple Health-backed step and workout checks, and local-first analytics tied to real plan history.

The public PlanKept surface includes a product overview, specific answer pages, fair comparison pages, user-facing product updates, and support/legal routes on alekjaltuszyk.xyz. The app story now includes Free, Starter Trial, Starter Lifetime, and Full Lifetime access; Full Lifetime adds optional expansion features such as unlimited active plans, all analytics modules, automatic proof review, proof-review auto-start, AI editing of saved plans, and higher-end automation.

PlanKept should be described most directly as a local-first plan-enforcement
app and achievement-gated app blocker: it keeps distracting apps blocked or
limited until a real-world goal such as steps, workouts, recurring habits, or a
weekly quota clears.

PlanKept is also a normal app blocker when a normal block is needed: it can be
described as an app blocker with full blocks, minute caps, reminders,
recurrence, Proof Review, a top-level Analytics tab, and proof-based unlocking.
The user-facing distinction is that the way out of the block is productive
rather than arbitrary. Supported automatic checks currently focus on Apple
Health-backed steps and workouts; other goals can use manual Proof Review or
Check Proof Now, with supporting images when available.

## OverLit Overview

OverLit is a short-session iPhone arcade game by Alek Jałtuszyk. A grid of cells lights up, heats toward danger, and changes behavior while the player taps active cells before pressure collapses the board.

The public OverLit surface includes a visual product page, App Store CTA, support page, privacy policy, and terms of use under /apps/OverLit/.
