Stop mindless scrolling and earn app access through effort
ScreenBreak helps you cut off app addiction by adding effort at the exact moment you try to open a distracting app. Instead of simple blocking, it asks you to complete a quick challenge—tap fast, shake your phone, or draw a circle. Win, and you get a short access window; fail, and the urge breaks. ScreenBreak also provides detailed hourly and weekly screen-time insights to help you understand and improve your habits.
ScreenBreak transforms app blocking into engaging unlock challenges (mini-games, neck exercises) that make pausing and thinking intentional, turning distraction prevention into a positive, interactive experience that reinforces better habits.
ScreenBreak blocks addictive apps and requires users to complete mini-games or neck exercises to unlock them, creating friction that breaks unconscious scrolling patterns and builds awareness of app usage habits.
ScreenBreak Pro subscription syncs blocking rules and usage data across iPhone, iPad, and Mac via RevenueCat, allowing users to maintain consistent screen time management and view unified progress across their Apple ecosystem.
ScreenBreak's Smart App Blocking automatically detects time-consuming apps and lets users set personalized blocking schedules for specific days and hours, with flexible launch counters to enforce daily usage limits during focus periods.
ScreenBreak provides detailed screen time analytics visualized by hour, app, and trend, plus weekly progress reports and focus scores, enabling users to see exactly where time is spent and measure improvement over time.
