Break your bad browsing habits and stay productive! The about:blank app helps you stay away from distracting websites.

For example, you can block the landing page of YouTube and still watch individual videos. • Nosy people have no chance Require authentication with FaceID/TouchID to access about:blank. • Makes it hard to cheat To help you stick to your rules, about:blank has an option that requires you to enter a random string to delete existing rules. • Sync your rules across devices Use about:blank on your iOS, iPad, and macOS without the need to maintain multiple rule lists. MADE FOR IPHONE about:blank is tailored to the iPhone with deep system integrations. A great example is  • An action extensions that allow you to block websites inside of Safari. • Focus mode filters to configure in which focus mode to block websites. • A beautiful dark mode, so the app doesn't distract you at night GET ABOUT:BLANK TODAY If you have any questions or feedback, please get in touch.

  • This app is great, but

    This app does everything I could ask for it to do, however there is a bug that makes you unable to delete a site from being blocked or change the block after it has already been added. It just causes the whole app to crash to Home Screen. I guess this does keep you from unblocking things for your self that you are trying to stop using. But it would be preferable if the app still functioned properly. I will change this review if this gets updated.

  • Perfect

    Exactly what I was looking for. Simple with clean execution. Thank you Mr. dev
  • Pretty great, maybe almost perfect

    Pros: Minimalist interface with lots of room for configuration.

    Cons (minor IMO, some easy fixes for dev tho):
    - Works via Xcode, which means you need to type a \ before special characters (e.g. facebook\.com). For some reason, this app’s keyboard doesn’t have a “\” key. To manually type an address, I have to write it in “Notes” and copy it over.
    - The first several times I launched it, it immediately came up with a full screen page asking me to enable it in Safari extensions when I already had. I almost thought I couldn’t use the app - turns out you can swipe down on that full screen page and get into the app. After quitting safari and a:b twice, it seemed to go away
    - After putting in a website in correct format, there was a delay before that website was actually blocked. Not sure what triggered it finally. I thought app was broken and even downloaded a different app (Ochi), set it up, then realized this was working. I prefer this to Ochi, for now, due to its minimalist approach and minimal bloat.
    - Also, I guess for sake of completion maybe this app is hard for non-technical people to use because software things like “\” before special characters may not be common knowledge ?? Idk, doubt anyone is reading this but figured I’d say it.
