About Blankr: App Blocker & Focus
blankr — a free, system-level app blocker that actually works. If you’ve ever picked up your phone for “just a second” and lost 30 minutes, this is for you. blankr helps you put boundaries on the apps that pull you in — so you can focus on what actually matters. DEAD SIMPLE No complicated setup. Just tap, choose your apps, and hit Start. Once a session begins, those apps stay blocked — even if you close blankr. ZEN MODE When you need full focus, Zen Mode removes the option to stop. No breaks, no exits. For real emergencies, you get a Weekly Free Pass (resets every Monday) or Override Keys (available up to 3 times per month, yours forever once purchased — optional, low-cost). RECURRING SCHEDULES Set your focus hours once and let them run automatically. Use built-in templates or customize your own — blankr works quietly in the background, even when the app is closed. FLEXIBLE BREAKS Life isn’t all or nothing. Take short breaks (1–20 minutes) without ending your session. Choose between Flexible, Cooldown, or go all-in with Zen Mode. When the break ends, everything locks back instantly. STREAKS Every completed session builds your streak. You’ll see your progress on a simple calendar — and if you try to quit early, blankr shows your streak resetting to zero. Just enough friction to keep you honest. WHY BLANKR • System-level blocking you can't swipe away • Works when the app is closed • Every feature is completely free • No analytics, no tracking, no data sent anywhere • No ads A NOTE FROM THE DEVELOPER I built blankr because time is the one thing we can't get back. I wanted to help people reclaim it — and I wanted it to be free because everyone deserves to be more intentional with their attention. blankr is deliberately simple. Not another reason to stay on your phone, just a practical tool to help you put it down. REQUIREMENTS • iOS 16.0 or later • Screen Time permissions (prompted on first launch) • Works on iPhone, iPad Privacy Policy - https://blankr.app/privacy-policy Terms of Service - https://blankr.app/terms-of-service Support - https://blankr.app/support
