About this app

IMPORTANT NOTE: This app is outdated and will not be supported anymore. If you are interested in Unpluq, please have a look at our other app, "Unpluq - Block Apps & Reduce Screen Time": https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.unpluq.beta


Less distraction, more life.

With the Unpluq Launcher, you will be able to focus on the things you find meaningful in life, free of unnecessary smartphone distraction.

Together with the Unpluq key, you will have the power to decide when to transform your current smartphone into a distraction-free device.
When the key is plugged in, you will have access to all of your apps.
When the key is plugged out, you have access to non-distracting apps only. You decide which apps are distracting.

This makes accessing distracting apps a conscious choice. Also, you can decide the barrier to distraction yourself. You could for example leave the key at home, and only have access to distracting apps once you get back home.

This product has helped me make a change that I was unable to make on my own for years. After a few months of using this, my daily phone usage has decreased from more than 6 hours a day down to 30 minutes. I also pair this device with a Kitchen Safe as an additional commitment device so that I only have access to the physical key itself at certain times to further reduce my access to using distracting apps in a compulsive way. I was able to find a love for reading, being outside and engaging with the world again. I recommend this product to anyone who is dealing with compulsive smartphone use and wants to try something different.

Great device, that really made me reconsider the way that I use my phone. Sort of a breakthrough, that I'm not sure I could have had without getting this device. So I still had some minor issues with the app, but nothing that cannot be worked around. The launcher bugs out occasionally in a way that I cannot access the app drawer, but that also fixes itself eventually. To summarize, if you are trying to reduce your phone usage, then the pros of using this launcher far outweigh the cons.

Just updating. I've been using it for a couple of months now and it really works. My phone is dramatically less distracting, so far the key stays firmly in the cap on my keyring. What I love is not taking it with me at all on the weekend, or locking it up in the evenings. No internet. So far this is the only thing that has worked apart from just having a dumb phone.
