What exactly does it do?

>Space loads a Moments of Zen before apps you need space from. This short-circuits instant gratification and puts you in charge again.

So if I hit an app icon, it launches your app instead? I don't understand the details entirely, but I can see why they wouldn't want that.



Let's say you want to use facebook less.

Space creates a space-launcher icon that you put where you used to keep facebook on your home screen. Now you click the space-launcher instead of clicking facebook. The space-launcher loads a 2-12 second meditation exercise, then loads facebook.


Ok, I get it now. If that's the case then you should look at or suggest to Apple apps like Workflow and Launch Center Pro which can also be used to provide shortcuts and integrations in other apps from the home screen. Is that the kind of thing you're going for? I realize it's probably not exactly the same but maybe it's along the same lines.


Ya! That is one of our lines of reasoning almost verbatim; specifically those two apps.
