Uninstall vs Takeback

A focus app that doesn't ask nicely. Lock the apps that own you, then walk away. Pick a one-time block, or a routine that runs itself. Want out before the routine ends? Earn it: a 10-second hold, then a 5-minute lockout. Friction beats willpower. PICK YOUR POISON • Block any app, category, or website on iOS • One-time blocks from 15 minutes to 24 hours • Recurring routines configured by weekday and time window • Multi-day schedules. Mornings before work, evenings before bed, study hours, sleep time A WEEK ON AUTOPILOT Routines run themselves. No daily decisions, no negotiating. The doomscroll dies on a schedule you set when you meant it. NO TAKEBACKS Hold to break for 10 seconds. Then a 5-minute lockout before the routine actually deactivates. Built for the version of you that committed when you set the block. Not the version of you scrolling at 2am. QUIETLY TAKE IT BACK Track the hours you reclaimed. No streaks to protect. No nudges. No badges. No b******t. Just the time back on the clock. PRIVACY FIRST Blocking is enforced on-device through Apple's Screen Time framework.

Takeback is Sarge, an AI coach who lets you into your social apps when you have a real reason and cuts off the doomscrolling. Not another app blocker. Other blockers lock everything, so you delete them by Friday. Or they're easy to skip. Sarge is tougher, but fair. A REAL REASON GETS YOU IN DMing a friend? Work? You get in. Doomscrolling? He cuts you off. He knows how long you've already scrolled today. 5 MODES. FIND YOURS. Some days your apps stay open, and the second you start doomscrolling, they lock. Some days every open costs a short wait while he tries to talk you out of it. On Blackout days, only a strong reason or a real emergency gets you in. Sarge picks your first modes, then you choose the one that works. HARDCORE WHEN YOU NEED IT On Hardcore days you say it out loud. Hold to talk, tell him why you need your apps, and he talks back. HE LEARNS YOU How you scroll. When you slip up. Then he adjusts your plan, and your daily limit steps down to your goal. YOUR ANTI-ALGORITHM Thousands of engineers. Billions of dollars. One job: keep you scrolling. Willpower can't beat that. It was never your fault. Sarge is an AI on your side against a billion-dollar feed. WANT MORE TIME? EARN IT. Go for a walk, work out, touch real grass, or hold a focus block. He checks the proof: your steps, a fresh photo, or 45 minutes with no unlocks. Pictures of pictures don't work on him. WHAT CHANGES Evenings that end in sleep, not a 2am feed. An attention span you can feel coming back. Hours that used to vanish with nothing to show for them. A phone you finally trust yourself with. WHO'S BEHIND IT Takeback is run by Stan Tatarnykov. He built games played by 80M+ people, so he knows how apps keep you hooked. Now he's on your side.
