Block is an easy-to-use Android application that improves your self-control by blocking or limiting your app usage and giving you insight into how your time is spent on your phone.
🎓 School & Study • 💼 Work • 🛌 Sleep • 👥 Social • 🡠Home & Family
🕓 BLOCK APPS AT SET TIMES
Select a group of apps and create a custom time schedule during which these apps will automatically be blocked. The schedule is fully customisable allowing you to set different times on different days in the week and create productive habits. An active block cannot be turned off so that it prevents you from using distracting apps. When your screen is turned off app blocking will idle and consumes little to none of your battery.
⌛ You can temporarily activate your blocks at any time for a specific duration. Great for when you start a study session or want to go to sleep. Often combined with a Pomodoro timer for increased productivity.
📊 VIEW APP USAGE
You can analyse your phone usage over different time periods going back up to 2 years. See where your time is spent and take steps to improve your digital wellbeing.
â±ï¸ SET DAILY USAGE LIMITS
Wasting time on social media or watching too many YouTube videos? You can set a daily usage limit per app. When you reach the time limit the app will be blocked for the remainder of the day. The limits are customisable per day of the week. For example detox from Facebook by only allowing 30 minutes per weekday limit Reddit to 20 minutes in the weekend or block Whatsapp after 1 hour of messaging.
📈 RECEIVE WEEKLY USAGE REPORTS
At the start of each week you will receive an overview of your app usage of the week before. This contains a detailed breakdown of where your time was spent during the week allowing you to easily decide which apps to restrict. You will be able to have more quality time and reduce your phone addiction resulting in a better digital diet.
🔒 STRICT APP BLOCKING
By default the only option to access a blocked app is to reboot your phone. If that is too easy you can disable this in the app's settings such that even after a reboot your apps will still be blocked. This app uses the Device Administrator permission. The permission can (optionally) be enabled inside the app's settings to prevent the app from being force closed or uninstalled such that there is no way to circumvent a block. Procrastinators this app is made for you.
OTHER
Additionally you can place widgets on your home screen that allow you to start a block in a single tap (Premium only). There is Tasker support to automate the starting of a block at any time.
Premium
