Take back your time. Blocks that actually work. Open Instagram "for a second" and lose 40 minutes? Mobile Less cuts the scroll at the root — without the loopholes Apple's Screen Time lets you slip through. — CONTENT FILTER — Block the feed and Reels on Instagram and YouTube. You keep the app (messages, search), but the scrolling black hole is gone. — BLOCKS THAT DON'T BUDGE — Tap a blocked app and it closes. No "Ignore" button, no "15 more minutes". Apple's limit can be skipped; Mobile Less can't. — PROFILES FOR EVERY MOMENT — Group apps and schedule them by time and day: Work, Study, Sleep. You decide what's blocked and when. — 10 SECONDS TO THINK — A conscious pause before you open an app. Usually that's all it takes to close it and get on with your day. — MINIMALIST MODE — A home screen with no icons, no noise. Only what you actually use. Less screen. More life. Monthly, yearly or one-time lifetime purchase. Cancel anytime.
