Boilerplate & positioning

Copy any of these verbatim. Pick the length that fits your caption, description or bio.

Positioning line

Mandarin from your lock screen.

Short - one sentence

Lock In Chinese turns your iPhone lock screen into a daily Chinese lesson and seals your social apps behind a quick quiz until you have earned your scroll.

Medium - 2-3 sentences

Lock In Chinese is a quiet Chinese-learning app built around your lock screen. A single word waits there every time you reach for your phone. Open a social app and it sits behind a seal: answer a short quiz on the words you have been learning, and the seal lifts for a while. You trade a little study for a little scroll.

Long - full paragraph

Lock In Chinese is an iOS app that teaches Chinese in the seconds you already spend on your phone. Instead of another flashcard grind, it puts one word on your lock screen so you meet it dozens of times a day, before the scroll ever begins. When you open Instagram, TikTok or X, the app seals them behind a short quiz drawn from the words you are learning. Answer correctly and you earn a window of scrolling; when it closes, the seal returns. The result is a habit that turns idle taps into steady, low-effort progress. Lock In Chinese is part of the Lock In family of lock-screen language apps. Learn more at lockinchinese.com.

Lock In Chinese

Logo status: the seal mark above is the working brand mark (the hero glyph carved into a seal-red stamp). A finalized app icon and logo are still being selected - a separate design pass owns the candidates. Treat these as placeholders and check back before print use.

Talking points

The key features worth mentioning. Lead with the lock-screen habit; it is the hook.

  • Learn Chinese from your lock screen, with no separate study session
  • A single word widget you meet every time you pick up your phone
  • Social apps (Instagram, TikTok, X) sit behind a seal until you pass a quick quiz
  • A correct answer buys a timed window of scrolling, then the seal returns
  • Spaced, bite-sized review that fits idle moments instead of adding to your day
  • Calm, literati-inspired design: paper, sumi ink, a single seal-red mark
