BreakOff is the App Blocker that finally sticks. Powered by Apple's Screen Time API for real, enforced blocking (not just gentle reminders). Block distracting apps, schedule breaks, and build streaks that actually change your habits.
Free to use, no account required. Upgrade to Pro if you want repeating schedules and unlimited breaks.
WHY BREAKOFF
Most screen time apps either block everything (and you uninstall them by Tuesday) or they nudge so softly you ignore them. BreakOff is the middle path: flexible when you need it, locked when you mean it.
WHAT YOU CAN DO
- App Blocking that works
Block Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube, or any app during focus sessions. Real blocking via Apple's Screen Time, not a workaround.
- Scheduled Breaks
Set daily or weekly schedules: every weekday 9-5, every evening after 9pm, study mode on Sundays. Your phone, on your terms.
- Locked Breaks
Started a break you're tempted to bail on? Locked mode stops you from ending it early. Great for deep work or bedtime wind-downs.
- Emergency Breaks
Life happens. Free users get 3 emergency breaks per month, Pro users get 3 per week, so you can break out if you truly need to.
- Streaks and Progress
Daily consistency, visual progress, streak notifications that cheer you on.
- App Groups
Build "Flip Phone" mode (everything locked), "Work" mode (social locked, utilities open), or any custom preset.
- Custom Shield Screen
The block screen you see when you try to open a restricted app: pick the words, the icon, the button text. Make it yours.
