Focus
It helps you to keep control of mindless scrolling.
U app buns
U app sucks
Highly recommend!
This app has been the only one I have found that actually works to curb the access to apps.
I have a brick for home and one for travel.

Family
It’s embarrassing to admit how much time I spend on my phone at home. YouTube is my vice, but using the Brick has significantly improved quality time with the family. It’s annoying how many times I have attempted to get on YouTube or Amazon while Bricked. 5/5 would recommend to anyone.
So far so good
Feel like it’s too early to give 5 stars, but even after a few days use I feel less likely to habitually pick up my phone and scroll. The investment seems good so far
Question / Idea?
I apologize I’ve added on to this thread a number of times over the course….You responded about the autishortcuts which I really appreciate- but this idea was already implemented after I sent an email a year or so.
The newest question/ idea I had was the one about a Dedicated Drive Mode or sleep Mode or basic daily temporary activities that would require full attention. Or having presets already programmed in that can be easily selected for specified time limits before doing an activity like driving or…that would goes into effect once the “Focus” Drive Mode goes IPhone occurs. on
**Update / Idea / Question ** Is there a dedicated Drive Mode? Or a if not, preset modes that include that?
Love Brick; service and product. Just had a question
If it would be possible to use Shortcuts to auto-brick at specific times? And then you’d have to manually unbrick. - Like at a certain time at night or in the AM. I think Sometimes when in a scroll hole it can take some willpower to snap out and Brick. I guess as long as it wouldn’t open doors for bypassing without the Brick.
**Update *** I recommend this to a friend who absolutely loves it…she told her therapist…and now her therapist is recommending to other clients who are struggling with screen addiction. A great product that catches on.
*Update* June 25 - A company that cares about the customer AND its mission! I just want to say thank you to the Brick developers for listening to our input and finding a way to make it work. The ability to schedule is amazing! Written right into the app vs using Shortcuts…Excellent and helps a ton. Thank you, thank you.
For those on the fence about the product…do it. I promise, you will not go wrong.

Works great, helps with discipline
I’m a day trader by profession. I used to be addicted to consuming news over the weekend. Anything stock or futures related as well. Now I block about 19 apps for Saturday and unblock them Sunday night so I can catch up. It’s helped my mental health, and relationship with my wife.
Won’t brik!!!
Won’t connect to screen time, useless!!!!
Changed my sleeping so much!
Can’t believe the impact of this on my sleeping and stress levels. Do it!!!!!
i’m free
see title
Life changing
Has made my sleep so much better. Highly recommended
Buy this and then use it
Worth every penny seriously
Great
Brick has been absolutely great. Social media addiction was not just about having better self discipline, my thumbs were automatically opening the apps out of pure subconscious habit then scrolling for hours on end. It’s helping me create new neural pathways to establish better discipline. I create blocked off time that allows me to focus on what i need to and its exactly what i needed to helped me accomplish what i want to through out the day.

Awesome and love it
Amazing for me and my family
Love the freedom!
I have utilized the focus time and limitation features already on my phone to reduce my time on social media and email, but all you have to do is push a button to allow 15 more minutes, and you can continue doing that as often as you’d like. Having to physically be near the brick, makes it so that the ability to access the apps that ruin my focus makes me much more likely to stay off of them and stick with my commitment. It is incredibly easy to use and should be in every home and probably every office/school!

Bring back the timer
It was your best feature
Easy to use and works!
I love how easy the app is to navigate and it really helps if you need to take breaks from certain apps on your phone but not your phone entirely. Worth the money for sure.
Too easy to un-brick
Easy to get out of even when away from the brick
I love Brick!
Brick, has been so amazing! I just bricked for 10 days from social media! I felt more clear, more aligned, and my mind wasn’t racing as much with how much I was scrolling! Thank you Brick for this great tool!
