Doombreak helps you stop doomscrolling — block distracting apps for as long as you choose, and use Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok without the feeds that pull you in. On Android, you agree before Accessibility turns on: Doombreak only sees which app opened, not your screen, and that name stays on your device. Completely free.
Pick any apps you want gone for a while — social, video, news, whatever hooks you. Name why this focus in one short line before you start — it stays under the countdown while you block, and if you skip it the session looks the same. Stay in a timed focus session until it ends, or run Until schedule ends so the block lasts the rest of your focus window. Turn on Auto-start so when your focus window begins, Doombreak starts blocking for you. Glance at Shield on your Lock Screen for a live countdown, and tap once to request a mindful unlock when you truly need an app. Go further with filtered mode: Instagram keeps DMs and profiles, YouTube keeps Search and Subscriptions (no Shorts or Home), and TikTok keeps Search and Following (no For You) — all inside Doombreak while the native apps stay blocked. Save app groups for different moments of the day. Set a focus schedule so starting is automatic. Need one app for a real reason? Take a mindful unlock — pause with intent, get a short window, then lock again.
