What these companies do

🔍 Problem

The average US adult checks a phone 186 times a day. Deleting the app fixes it, right up until the app is one you need. You can't delete banking, maps, work chat or the group thread.

💡 Solution

Blocking apps move the fight from willpower to environment, so you decide once at setup and the software enforces it hundreds of times a day.

💎 Why It Matters

Apple and Google shipped free screen-time controls years ago and this market grew anyway.
