Claruss helps you keep the commitments you've already made to yourself. Set rules to block distracting apps during any time window you choose. The blocks are enforced at the system level. To unlock early, you enter a one-time passcode sent to your email or phone. You can also require a second code sent to an accountability partner — someone who has to approve the unlock before it happens. That's the point. Not just friction, but friction you share with someone else. CORE FEATURES Scheduled blocking by day and time (free) System-level enforcement — works even when the app is closed (free) One-time passcode to unlock early by email (free) One-time passcode by SMS (Pro) Accountability partner who must also approve early unlocks (Pro) Hardcore mode: cooldown before editing or deleting your own rules (Pro) Lockdown mode: block everything except whitelisted apps (Pro) Website blocking in Safari, Chrome and other browsers (Pro) HOW IT WORKS Every block you set is enforced at the system level. When a rule is active, the apps you chose are locked — not hidden, not filtered, actually blocked. Closing Claruss doesn't change that. When you want to unlock early, you have to earn it. Claruss sends a one-time passcode to your email or phone. You enter it, and the block lifts. That gap — the 30 seconds between impulse and action — is where most people stop. If you want more accountability, add a partner. When you try to unlock early, they get a code too. Both codes have to be entered before anything opens. Your partner doesn't manage you. They just make it impossible to quietly give up without someone knowing. Hardcore mode adds a cooldown before you can edit or delete a rule you've already set. So the version of you that made the commitment has a small advantage over the version of you that wants to abandon it. 14-DAY PRO TRIAL Every new account gets 14 days of Claruss Pro, no credit card required. When the trial ends, you decide whether to subscribe. We don't auto-convert. FREE Schedule app blocks by day and time. Allowed 1 rules with 3 apps blocked. One-time passcode by email to unlock early. PRO $4.99/month or $29.99/year Unlimited rules and apps. SMS passcodes. Accountability partner approval for early unlocks. Hardcore mode: a cooldown before you can edit or delete your own rules. You set the rules. You choose the apps, the schedule, and whether someone else has to sign off. Claruss just makes it harder to quietly give up.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Talview Candidate at none against Claruss's 2. Talview Candidate also leads on ratings volume (17K vs 1) and device support (3 vs 1). Claruss's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs monthly) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
