Blockd 2.0 – our biggest update yet. Blockd gives you a calm moment before you open an app. With version 2.0 we rethought the app from the ground up: clearer, calmer and closer to how your day actually feels. THE REASON MOMENT Before a blocked app opens, Blockd asks one question: why do you want to open it? • Just bored? The app stays closed – and you're already one step ahead. • Research or inspiration? It opens for x minutes. • An intentional break? Two minutes, no guilt attached. Afterwards, protection turns back on automatically. BLOCKS YOU'LL WANT TO START • A completely new Blocks page with cover images for every block. • Create your own block in a few steps: pick apps, set a time, done. • Block instantly with one tap whenever you need some quiet. YOUR SCREEN TIME, CLEARER • New detail view: see which apps shape your day and how often you pick up your phone. • A weekly view that shows your days getting calmer. WIDGETS • New Home Screen widgets: focus time, running blocks and progress always in view. ALSO NEW • A new interactive tutorial that shows you Blockd in a minute. • Redesigned onboarding. • A dark app icon to match Dark Mode. • Lots of small improvements to design, speed and stability. Thanks for using Blockd. If you enjoy the update, a rating means a lot to us.

About
Blockd helps you create a pause before distractions take over. Built with Apple Screen Time, BLOCKD lets you block distracting apps and websites, set intentional limits, and build calmer phone habits without making your device feel hostile. Instead of relying on willpower in the exact moment you are about to open a distracting app, BLOCKD adds structure around that decision. When you try to open a blocked app, BLOCKD interrupts the habit loop and creates a short moment to check in with yourself. If you still need access, you can choose a reason and, depending on that reason, unlock the app for a short period of time. This makes it easier to separate mindless scrolling from intentional use. What you can do with BLOCKD: • Block distracting apps with Apple Screen Time • Start focus sessions for work, study, rest, or personal time • Create app limits that support your daily goals • Set up scheduled blocking sessions for recurring routines • Use a reason-based unlock flow for more intentional decisions • Temporarily unlock an app for things like research or a short break • Review daily Screen Time and usage patterns • Track how your time is distributed across apps • Build simple routines that are easier to stick to over time BLOCKD is designed to feel calm, clear, and practical. The goal is not to shame you for using your phone. The goal is to help you notice the moment before an automatic tap turns into lost time. Privacy matters. Your Screen Time data is protected by Apple, and sensitive usage data stays on your device. BLOCKD requires Screen Time / Family Controls permission so it can apply the blocking, limit, and insight features you choose.
