I have tried half a dozen app blocking apps and this is the only one that works for me. if I’m being honest it’s not the cutest/best ux (like the other trendier ones) BUT it actually keeps me off instagram and other garbage so I guess that’s the point right? I let myself into instagram 3x a day for 5 minutes each time and honestly? I sometimes get to like 9pm and realize I’ve opened that stupid app 0 times.
I have little blockers on everything. even email and safari! I don’t need to google things the minute it pops into my dang head!

something unique about me is that I need to be on my phone less. this app has been the most helpful deterrent for some reason...don't want to spoil how but every time I want to open instagram, for example, I have to do something humiliating like "exercise patience."

This app blocks chosen apps for you for certain periods of time. I have IG, Grindr, and Tik Tok blocked during my working hours so that I don’t impulsively check them. 1000% worth it and now I see my tech addiction.

It’s an app that you can use to block certain apps on your phone that has helped me greatly decrease my social media time without quitting cold turkey (though I’m trying to do that too, recently). I have it set so that I can only open instagram 7 times a day in 5 minute increments. I spend much less time doomscrolling but can still look at things my friends have sent me, etc.

i had NO idea people were still on this????? just relinked my spotify and I guess I'll see where this goes???
only sharing this bc this app is still small enough but I have no idea what this is going to tell you about me 🥴. I'm a lil sad we've missed out on 14 years of data but onwards and upwards!
