Features
The only blocker that gives you something to do instead.
AI-powered doom-scroll detection watches in real time. It knows the difference between checking a DM and falling into a feed — and blocks you the moment it matters. When it catches you, your task list opens automatically.
Schedule exactly when apps go dark with Time Blocks, or set a daily hours limit that cuts you off when you hit it. Block any app — social media, games, browsers, anything. The moment you reach for a blocked app, your task list opens automatically.
No way in. Period.
Convince the AI you actually need it.
8 distinct voices. Each with a different style, energy, and approach. Choose who pushes you when a blocked app tries to pull you back.

Reviews
"I went from 7 hours of screen time to under 2 in one week. David's voice when I try to open Instagram is genuinely terrifying. 10/10."
"The streak system is addictive in the best way possible. I've earned 3 free days already and I'm on day 34. I actually look forward to checking my stats."
"Scroll Guard caught me doom-scrolling TikTok at 1am and played the Hope coach. It was gentle but I actually went to bed. Hasn't happened in years."
"My therapist recommended a screen time app. I tried 4 others. BreakAway is the only one that made it stick. The Reality Check feature is genius."
"I run a team. We all use BreakAway now. The amount of focused time we've recovered is measurable. Genuinely transformative."
"37 languages?? I shared this with my family in Brazil and Japan and they actually use it now. It works for everyone."
