Open a distracting app, get redirected to a productive one — automatically.ForceOpen is a digital wellbeing app that helps you break the habit of mindlessly scrolling through social media and video apps.
How It WorksWhen you open a blocked app, ForceOpen automatically launches a redirect app of your choice. Open Twitter and your reading app launches. Open YouTube and your study app opens. Simple as that.
3 Block Modes
- Force Mode — Always redirects. No exceptions. For when willpower isn't enough.
- Probability Mode — Set a pass-through rate so you can occasionally use the app.
- Permission Mode — Shows a confirmation dialog: "Do you really want to open this?" A 10-second countdown helps you think twice.
Flexible Set ManagementGroup blocked apps and redirect targets into sets. Create different configurations for work, study, or bedtime.
TimerBlock apps temporarily — "Block for 2 hours starting now." Select which sets to activate with the timer.
