About Breakaway
Your phone wasn't meant to control you.
BreakAway helps you build a healthier relationship with your phone through intelligent blocking and motivational voice coaches.
🛡️ SMART BLOCKING
Not all screen time is equal. Reply to DMs? No problem. Doom-scrolling the feed? We've got you.
• Scroll Guard detects mindless scrolling
• Context-aware: messages stay accessible, feeds get blocked
• Schedule focus periods that fit your life
• Block distracting and addictive websites
âś… TASKS & AI ASSISTANT
When an app is blocked, see tasks you could do instead. Create them manually or just tell our AI—"Remind me to call mom tomorrow." No more "I'm bored" excuses.
🎙️ 9 VOICE COACHES
When you hit a blocked app, hear from coaches who actually motivate—from David' raw intensity to Hope's gentle encouragement. Choose the voice that speaks to you.
🏆 YOUR DISCIPLINE PAYS YOU BACK
Stay focused, earn free subscription days. Up to 3 months free—just by using your phone less. The app that literally pays you to ignore it.
đź§ MINDFUL UNLOCKING
Need a break? Chat with our reflection bot first. Make a conscious choice, not an impulsive one.
The average person spends 4+ hours daily on their phone.
What would you do with that time back?
Download now. Your future self will thank you.
⚙️ ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE DISCLOSURE
BreakAway uses the Android Accessibility Service to provide its core blocking features:
• App Detection: Identifies which app is currently open to determine if it should be blocked based on your schedule
• Scroll Guard: Monitors scrolling patterns to detect doom-scrolling behavior and distinguish between intentional use (like reading DMs) and mindless browsing (like endless feed scrolling)
• Website Blocking: Reads the current URL from your browser's address bar to block distracting websites you've specified
• Context Awareness: Detects whether you're in a messaging screen vs. a social feed, allowing important conversations while blocking addictive content
This accessibility data is processed entirely on your device and is never collected, stored, or transmitted to any server. The service only activates during your scheduled focus periods.
