Spending too much time on your phone? You check one thing. Then another. Your work is still waiting, your break disappears into the feed, and suddenly it's later than you meant to stay up. Offimo is an app blocker for iPhone that helps you reduce screen time and protect the time you meant to spend elsewhere. WANT TO STOP, BUT KEEP SCROLLING? Choose the apps that pull you in. While protection is active, Offimo interrupts attempts to open them with a pause or a block, depending on your settings. ONE QUICK CHECK. WORK STILL WAITING? Schedule blocks for work, study, downtime, or winding down before bed. Set days and times, trigger protection with a usage limit, or start a block when you arrive somewhere. Location-based blocks require your location permission. OPENED A MESSAGE. ENDED UP SCROLLING? Choose which apps stay available and which get blocked. Keep the apps you need, and put protection on the distractions. NEED TO FOCUS RIGHT NOW? Start a protection session without waiting for your next scheduled block. Jeff keeps you company while you get back to what you wanted to do. CUTTING BACK. HARD TO STICK WITH IT? See your screen time, protected time, and protected-day streak. Jeff follows along and celebrates your progress. CHOOSE HOW FIRM YOUR PROTECTION IS A lighter pause lets you choose whether to continue. Firmer settings add a confirmation and a wait before leaving early, or keep the block in place until the period ends. Emergency Unlock is available in every mode. It releases the blocks for 30 minutes after the steps shown in the app, with no extra charge. Start with one moment you keep putting off because of your phone. Offimo uses Apple's Screen Time and requires iPhone with iOS 18 or later. Your Screen Time reports stay on your iPhone. No ads. No selling your data. PREMIUM AND FREE TRIAL Downloading is free. The features described require Offimo Premium, a monthly or annual subscription. Eligible new subscribers can try it free for 7 days, then the subscription is charged to their Apple Account. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the trial or current period ends. Pricing and terms are shown before confirmation. Manage cancellation in iPhone Settings → your name → Subscriptions → Offimo. Deleting the app or your account does not cancel the subscription. The financial commitment option is voluntary. If you choose it, ending the session early requires a one-time purchase, with the price shown before confirmation. Completing the session and using Emergency Unlock have no extra charge.
