Focus Shield blocking a distracting app

How it works

Two modes. One goal: less distraction.

Focus Timer

Instant presets, clean countdown, no fluff. Start a session in one tap.

Focus Shield

Block distracting apps the moment you open them. Emergency access included.

Schedules & Limits

Daily caps, time windows, and always-block rules that run automatically.

Reality Check

Gentle reminders that snap you out of autopilot before you lose another hour.

Blocking runs locally on your device. No screen content is read, stored, or transmitted. Emergency access is always available with a friction gate.

What it looks like

Clean UI. No noise. Designed to stay out of your way.

FAQ

Does it block everything?

Focus Shield blocks the apps you choose, based on your rules. You decide what gets blocked and when.

What about emergencies?

Emergency Access is always available. It requires a cooldown and a hold-to-confirm action — enough friction to stop impulse, not enough to trap you.

Is my data private?

Yes. Blocking runs entirely on your device. No screen content, app usage data, or personal information is sent to external servers.

Does it work without internet?

Core blocking and the focus timer work fully offline. An internet connection is only needed for subscription management.

Can I adjust the rules later?

Yes. You can change blocked apps, schedules, and limits at any time from the Focus Shield settings screen.
