## What is AppBlock?

Block the apps that waste your time, by schedule, by daily limit or by location. AppBlock uses Apple's Screen Time system, so a blocked app shows a shield screen when you open it.

Pick the apps that distract you, then choose how to block them.

CHOOSE HOW TO BLOCK
• Quick Block: choose your apps and start a focus session in one tap. A countdown shows how long is left.
• Schedules: block apps during work, study, dinner or bedtime. Set the days and the time ranges.
• Usage limits: set how long you can use an app each day. When your time is up, the app is blocked.
• Open limits: allow only a few opens per day. The blocked screen shows how many opens you have left.
• Location blocking: block apps when you are at a place you choose, like school, the library or the office. You can also block them when you are away from it.

SEE WHERE YOUR TIME GOES
Start by guessing your daily screen time, then see the real number. Insights show your screen time and your most used apps by day for free. Weekly and monthly views come with Premium.

BUILT FOR REAL LIFE
Stop doomscrolling at night. Study without your phone pulling you away. Keep dinner phone free. Switch off work apps when you get home.

PRIVACY
The apps you choose stay private. Apple's Screen Time system keeps your list hidden from us, and your schedules and limits are stored on your device.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Allow Screen Time access once
2. Pick the apps that distract you
3. Start Quick Block, or set a schedule, a limit or a place
4. Get your time back
