Take back control of your screen time. Focus App Blocker helps you stay productive by blocking distracting apps at the system level. But here's the twist, instead of harsh restrictions, unlocking requires completing a brief mindful challenge. This small friction transforms impulsive app-checking into intentional access. HOW IT WORKS 1. Create focus profiles and select apps to block 2. Enable a profile when you need to concentrate 3. Blocked apps become inaccessible system-wide 4. Want to check an app? Complete a quick challenge first 5. Track your progress with detailed statistics 7 UNIQUE UNLOCK CHALLENGES Breathing Exercise - Follow a calming guided breathing pattern Memory Match - Find matching pairs in a tile grid Flow Connect - Connect colors without crossing paths Pattern Tap - Watch and repeat color sequences Hold & Center - Keep a dot steady inside a wobbling circle Trace Shape - Carefully draw shapes with precision Reaction Taps - Tap targets while avoiding distractors Each challenge takes just 15-45 seconds but creates enough friction to break the autopilot habit of checking apps mindlessly.
