About this app
Grounded is an Android app blocker and screen time control app that helps you block distracting apps, set daily app limits, and build healthier phone habits.
Create groups for social media, video apps, games, news, shopping, or any other apps that pull you in. Then choose the rule that fits the habit you want to change.
Three blocking modes:
• Blocking
Start a focus block for a set amount of time. The selected apps stay blocked until the timer ends.
• Timing
Give distracting apps a daily screen time allowance. Once the limit is used, Grounded blocks them until the next day.
• Frequency
Block apps after you open them too many times. Useful for stopping repeated checking, doomscrolling, and short “just one minute” habits.
More ways to stay in control:
• Automatic schedules
Set daily blocking windows for work, study, bedtime, school hours, or family time.
• PIN-protected controls
Require a PIN before changing rules or bypassing restrictions.
• Parent-approved tasks
Create tasks such as homework, reading, chores, or practice. When tasks are approved, children can earn extra screen time or reduce block time.
• App groups
Group apps however you like: Social, Games, News, Shopping, Video, or custom groups for your own routine.
• Reliable background blocking
Grounded keeps blocking active in the background so your rules continue working even when your phone is idle.
• Privacy-minded design
Your app usage rules, open counts, and durations stay on your phone. Grounded is built to help you change habits, not to sell your behavior.
Use Grounded to reduce screen time, block distracting apps, stay focused while studying or working, protect bedtime, and create healthier phone habits for yourself or your family.
