Perfect

Found this on Reddit and it does everything I wanted!

Amazing, easy to use, and FREE

I found out about this app on Reddit. I have been trying to stop using IG and FB outside of work and didn’t want to buy a Brick. This has been amazing for me. My mindless phone time has gone down drastically! I will be recommending this app to everyone. THANK YOU for making this app and helping me finally successfully tackle my New Year’s resolution!

Very cool app

It does everything the $70 Brick does for free. Make sure to tip the dev! Hope more people find this.

Awesome app

Acts just like the “brick” app, but doesn’t require purchasing a $60 NFC tag that harvests your data. Thanks for making this. I would donate if I knew how

Free!

I only needed to block a couple of apps and didn't want to pay $50/year for the privilege. This is a super simple app to use and helps immensely. To use it, you "scan" a preselected object in your surroundings (preferably one you have to make an effort to scan). Only downside is you won't be able to unblock on the go.
