App Blocker OffKit
Read full descriptionHide full description
OffKit helps you stop impulsive scrolling and use your phone intentionally. Block distracting apps and categories, then choose what it takes to regain access. Unlock with a QR code placed in another room, reach a daily step goal, or complete your Apple Watch Move or Exercise ring. That small real-world action interrupts the doomscrolling habit loop. Create focused scenarios for studying, work, evenings, or sleep. Choose flexible durations, protect changes with Face ID or Touch ID, and add a disable countdown when you want extra friction. OffKit uses Apple's Screen Time and HealthKit APIs. Your scenarios and activity data stay on your device and are never sold. Terms of Use: https://offkit.eu/terms

Save where you stopped, the next action and any setup needed. Return Cards turn an unfinished task into a concrete place to resume. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open Return Cards and write where you stopped, what comes next and the setup you need. 2. Add checkpoints as work progresses. Search or archive cards when your priorities change. 3. Send the next action into Begin when you are ready, or export cards for backup. The existing Begin workflow and guided starting tools remain available. WHAT TO KNOW Cards are manual planning records. Opening a next action does not automatically start a timer or mark work complete. Local storage has explicit record limits. iPhone and iPad.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: App Blocker OffKit at Free against Beginbeat's $1.99. Beginbeat's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 2) and update cadence (every 4 days vs monthly). On ads and device support there is nothing between them.
