Foccus vs Strict App Blocker

Can't put your phone down? It's not your fault. Those apps were designed to keep you inside. Foccus was designed to keep them out. Foccus turns focusing into a game: shake your phone — and 3 randomly picked apps from your list get locked. Who's going? Instagram, TikTok, or that game you can't quit? Luck decides. That's why every session starts with the thrill of a lottery draw. THE REST IS UP TO YOU While the timer runs, your locked apps are off limits — try to open one and you'll hit a shield. Hold out, and every screen-free minute turns into points. Finish the session and the points, streak and badges are yours. Give up early... and your streak resets. Simple, fair, ruthless. HOW IT WORKS • Pick the apps that can be locked — just once • Shake your phone (or tap the dice) • 3 random apps get locked for 30 min to 3 hours • Resist, earn points, level up EVERYTHING THAT KEEPS YOU PLAYING • Points: every screen-free minute = 1 point, multiplied by completion bonuses and streaks • Daily streaks: complete a session every day and watch your multiplier grow • 6 levels: start as a Rookie, rise to Zen Legend • 8 badges to collect: from First Step to the 1,000 Minute Club • Screen-Free Time stats: the exact opposite of screen time — charts of the minutes you spent away from your phone THE SERIOUS PART Foccus is built on Apple's official Screen Time technology. The lock is real: you can't swipe it away or bargain for "5 more minutes." Watch the countdown live in the Dynamic Island — even when the app is closed. PRIVACY? ZERO DATA. Apple never tells us which apps you picked — so we couldn't share it even if we wanted to. No account, no sign-up, no ads, no tracking. Everything stays on your device. WHO IS IT FOR? • Students who reach for their phone mid-study session • Professionals who "just check something" and lose 40 minutes • Night scrollers glued to the screen before sleep • Everyone who started a digital detox and quit on day three — this time, the game is on your side Stop fighting your screen time. Turn it into a game and win. Shake. Lock. Focus. SUBSCRIPTION & PURCHASE Foccus Pro unlocks unlimited focus sessions.

Set a daily time limit on the apps that eat your day, or shut them off completely between the hours you choose. When the time is gone, it's gone. Free. No account, no subscription, no trial that runs out. DAILY BUDGET Pick your worst apps and give them a limit. The timer counts down while you use them and resets each morning. Open a blocked app and you see how long is left, not a wall with no explanation. HARD MODE Schedule a window and the apps simply don't open. 9 to 5. 11pm to 7am. Whatever you need. No countdown, no bargaining. GREYSCALE Turn the screen black and white the moment you open something you're trying to cut down on. It sounds like a gimmick. It works better than it should. STRICT TRAINING Ten days to get used to it, then you can lock the settings so the version of you at 1am can't undo what you decided at 10am. WHY IT'S FREE Every other blocker wants forty dollars a year to help you use your phone less. This one doesn't. There's a tip jar in Settings if you want to, and that's the whole business model. No account means there's nothing to leak, and your data never leaves your phone. Dark mode, a sixty day history of the days you left your rules alone, and Otto, who tells you where you're at without nagging.
