About
You didn't mean to spend two hours on that app. DetoxBrain puts a moment of friction between the reflex and the scroll — and makes blocking that actually holds.
1. Block distracting apps
- Pick the apps that pull you in. DetoxBrain shields them — enforced by your phone's own system, so it works even when DetoxBrain isn't open, even offline, even after a restart.
- Multiple independent block groups: your bedtime rules don't have to fight your work rules.
- A "Fix blocking" button and self-healing shields, because a blocker that silently stops blocking is worse than no blocker.
2. Screen-time limits that fit a real life
- Daily time budgets per app, plus open-count limits — for the apps you don't spend long in, you just open forty times.
- Recurring schedules: bedtime, mornings, work hours.
- A pause and an intention prompt before you go in, with a delay that grows as the day's opens add up: 10 seconds, then 30, then a minute.
- Need in anyway? Take a timed session — 5, 10, 15 or 30 minutes — and it re-locks itself. A decision, not a slip.
3. Focus sessions
- Start a 25, 50, or custom-length session. Your blocked apps stay blocked; the timer keeps running in the background.
- Finish, and your streak grows.
4. Insights & streaks — free, all of it
- Today's total, per-app breakdown, pickups, yesterday's comparison, a 7-day chart, a calendar heatmap.
- Distraction-only mode: only the apps you chose count. Maps, music and messages don't get held against you.
- A brain-health score with real long-term progression — yesterday's discipline doesn't get erased overnight.
5. Private by default — not as a promise, as an architecture
Your usage data never leaves your device. Not "we don't look at it" — we can't. Apple's Screen Time framework confines your screen-time data to a sandbox on your phone, and we built no server that could receive it. Your app list, your blocklist, how long you spend where: all of it stays on the device. Nothing to sell, nothing to leak. No account required to use any of it.
6. Premium
The free tier is meant to be genuinely useful — full stats, three blocked apps, the friction layer, streaks, and your emergency pass are free forever. Upgrade for:
- Block as many apps as you want, organized into separate groups — and block a whole category, like Social, in one tap
- Strict mode: once a focus session starts, you can't switch it off from inside the app. Your weekly emergency pass still works, and "Remove all shields" is always there — it just takes two hours to land.
- Custom shield screens
- Detailed weekly insights
Monthly, annual (with a 7-day free trial) and lifetime plans. No full-screen ads, ever — an app about protecting your attention has no business interrupting it.
7. There's always a way out
An emergency pass, once a week. A "Reset all shields" button that's never behind a paywall. If your subscription lapses, everything you set up keeps running exactly as it was — nothing is switched off, nothing is deleted. To change it you'd come back to Premium or trim down to the free tier, but the way out is never for sale. Getting locked out of your own phone is a bug, not a feature.
