Detox turns your phone back into a tool

Detox in 1 minute
01

Choose Apps to Block

Select which apps you want to limit. You choose the apps. Detox blocks them only after you've been using them continuously for too long. Keep access to messages, maps, and work tools.

02

Start Focus Sessions

When you need deep work, start a Focus Session. Detox blocks distracting apps for a set period while essential tools stay available. Perfect for studying, working, or family time.

03

Configure Schedules

Create time periods on selected days where distracting apps are automatically blocked. Protect your mornings, evenings, sleep time, or daily focus hours. Set it once and forget it.

04

Smart Blocking Has Your Back

Quick checks are fine. Long doomscrolling sessions are interrupted. Detox uses consecutive usage limits instead of blocking everything, so you stay in control without frustration.
