unhookd vs Arc

Your phone is designed to hook you. Notifications. Autoplay. Infinite scroll. unhookd is the antidote: the first app that blocks your distracting apps by default, 24/7. No willpower. No time limits you'll override. Just apps that stay blocked until you decide otherwise. —————————————————————— DEFAULT-LOCKED APPS The moment you install unhookd, your chosen apps are blocked. Around the clock. SLOTS Schedule recurring windows for when apps become accessible e.g. YouTube on Weekdays from 6-7pm PEEKS Need quick access outside a Slot? Set a duration (max 20m), pick a reason, get in, and get locked out when the time's up. INSIGHTS & SCORE See when, why, and how often you peek. Build real awareness of your digital habits. —————————————————————— All other screen-time apps: Apps available all day → you decide when to block unhookd: Apps blocked by default, 24/7 → you decide when to access That shift changes everything. Use unhookd to: → Stop opening Instagram or TikTok "just to check" → Protect deep work, study time, or creative flow → Be more present with the people who matter → Actually follow the rules you set for yourself "I've been using unhookd for a couple weeks now, and it has been amazing! I only use it for social media, and it has taken my daily average from 3.5 hours down to only 20 minutes a day! Works wonders for me, thank you." - JP Boyd Stop scrolling on autopilot. Block distractions by default. Use your phone with intention. —————————————————————— Terms of Use: https://www.unhookd.app/tos Privacy Policy: https://www.unhookd.app/privacy-policy

THE ARC DIFFERENCE Arc doesn't just block apps - it redirects your attention with a powerful three-part system: - Session Limits: Automatic breaks when a session has reached the set limit. No more unintentional doomscroll sessions. Daily limits are not helpful when the problem is getting sucked into the scroll hole and not realizing it. That's why we built session limits! - Smart Nudges: Gentle reminders about your to-dos while you scroll - Integrated To-Do Lists: Track what really matters, all in one place - Advanced Analytics: Track every session with precision. See exactly when you close apps yourself (exits) vs. when the timer saves you (lockouts). Discover your most addicting apps through unblock tracking, identify your best and worst self-control patterns, and get AI-powered recommendations tailored to YOUR behavior. No more guessing where to improve, the data shows you exactly which apps need stricter limits, where you're building great habits, and actionable steps to reduce your screen time based on real patterns, not generic advice or behavior patterns.
