You've deleted the app before. You had it back by that night. Unracked is the blocker you can't talk your way out of. You choose the apps and the hours. After that it isn't up to you anymore. Force quit it. Restart your phone. The block holds. THREE WAYS TO BLOCK Focus sessions. One tap buys you 15 minutes, two hours, or the rest of the afternoon. Schedules. Pick the hours you always lose. Weekday mornings, dinner, after 11pm. The block arms itself whether or not you open the app. Locations. Blocking starts when you walk into the library and lifts when you leave. Your desk, a classroom, a gym, home. WHY THIS ONE WORKS WHEN THE OTHERS DIDN'T Most blockers give you an out. Two taps, a just-this-once, and forty minutes are gone. Unracked closes the out. That's the entire product. Survives force quits and restarts Runs in the background, so there's nothing to remember and nothing to start Live countdown in the Dynamic Island and on your Lock Screen A streak that only counts sessions you finished NOBODY SEES YOUR DATA, INCLUDING US No account. No email. Nothing to sign into. Built on Apple's Screen Time API, which hands us anonymous tokens instead of app names. We couldn't tell you which apps you blocked if we wanted to.
