Bloom - Conquer Screen Time

Find Your Bloom LLC

About this app

Most screen time apps fail because they’re easy to bypass. Bloom was created to fix that.

Bloom revolutionizes your productivity by requiring you to scan an NFC keycard to your phone to access distracting apps.

**How It Works**
- Choose Your Distractions: Select the apps or websites you find most distracting.
- Block Your Distractions: Tap your Bloom card to your phone to block those apps.
- Live Distraction-Free: Stay productive with your card out of reach. When ready, just tap your Bloom card to your phone to unblock your apps.

**Features**
- Schedules: Set personalized schedules for your focus periods, allowing them to start and end automatically.
- Breaks: Use your apps mindfully by setting limits on the frequency and duration of your breaks.
- Emergency Exits: Unblock all of your apps without your bloom card up to three times.
- Block Websites: With your permission, Bloom can use the Accessibility Service API to prevent you from accessing different websites of your choosing.

**Why Bloom**
- Take Back Your Time: Spend less time on your phone and more time doing things that actually matter.
- Boost Productivity: Improve your work habits by blocking out distractions.
- Our physical solution is the ultimate solution for digital detox and time management.

With Bloom’s NFC keycard, you can leave the “key” to your distractions behind, ensuring you stay focused and productive.

Ratings and reviews

Pretty good experience so far. The most frustrating thing has been if I type something in the Chrome URL / search bar at the top, if one of the suggestions that Chrome pulls up matches something in my block list, I get the bloom screen overlay blocking Chrome. This happens just when the suggestion pops up. I feel like it should only pop up if I navigate to that site. Developers, is there something that can be done about this? Other than this, Ive enjoyed the app.

So far this is working perfectly. The scheduled focus sessions take away any effort on my end to opt in to blocking apps. Little bit of a learning curve in the set-up (I have blocked all browsers, settings, and Play during deep focus so I can't get around the app settings) and leave the card at home when I'm at work so it doesn't tempt me. One nit is that if you accidentally set two timers that overlap the later never starts. Otherwise exactly what I needed

Pretty disappointing. I like the NFC concept, and thought keeping my Bloom card out of my bedroom at night would encourage me to get up in the morning. I even bought two. But the app only works half the time. It shows it's running right now, but I have full access to all my distractions. Then you can't hard reset it to make it actually work without going and getting the card. As it stands today, this is an overpriced timeblocking app with a physical device needed for troubleshooting.
