Take your
attention back.
A little more effort between you and the apps you keep opening.
Choose what to block. Set the steps it takes to get back in. Give yourself a chance to think twice.
How it works
Make the next scroll
a choice.
Pick what to block
A single app or a whole category. Start with whatever keeps pulling you back.
Build your unblock steps
Wait, tap, type, solve a puzzle, shake, or scan a tag. Combine them in the order you want.
Save it as a profile
Keep different setups for focus hours and time off. Start a saved profile with one tap.
Included from the start
Your attention. Your terms.
Zero data, by design
No analytics, no accounts, no cloud sync, no network code at all.
An extra hurdle, if you want it
Turn on escalation and each pause takes more effort. Off by default.
Accessible
VoiceOver, Dynamic Type, and reduced motion work throughout.
