About Nudge - ADHD App Blocker

App blockers ask for Accessibility Service permissions — the most powerful permission on Android. It can see everything on your screen. Most app blockers are closed-source with vague privacy policies. Nudge is different.

Nudge is open source, requests zero internet permissions, and keeps all your data on your device. No analytics. No telemetry. No data leaving your phone. Ever.

Features:
* Delay-to-open — wait through a breathing exercise or countdown before opening distracting apps
* Hard blocking — completely block apps you don't want to access
* Daily time budgets — allow 30 minutes of Instagram per day, then block
* App groups — create a "Social Media" group, configure once, apply to all
* Schedule-based rules — block social media 9-5 on weekdays
* In-app blocking — block Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts without blocking the whole app
* Grayscale mode — make blocked apps less appealing by forcing grayscale display
* Usage stats — see where your screen time actually goes

The delay/breathing modes are the core idea. They don't lock you out — they insert a moment of intentional friction that breaks the automatic habit loop driving most mindless phone usage.

Zero internet permission is declared in the manifest — verifiable, not a promise.

What’s new

Version 1.21.0 · Updated October 5, 2026

• New: "Bro. wtf." check-ins. Hit a wall, bounce through a few other apps, hit a wall again, and Nudge sends one friendly notification asking if you want a break. • Off by default. Turn it on in Settings under Check-ins. • At most one check-in every 30 minutes. It only listens to the app switches Nudge already sees, so there is no extra battery cost.

Really really liking the app, honestly great work, we need friction into using apps to be mindful... The app is great, but with some inconsistencies, such as how the blocked app gets blocked after a while, maybe a battery optimization issue even tho mines turned off for this app... Also... Things I look for... Contr...
