About this app
Otama is a minimal launcher and app blocker that helps you reduce screen time, block distracting apps, and build focus through real friction. Replace your home screen with a clean, distraction-free environment and add cognitive challenges between you and the apps that pull you into mindless scrolling.
Most blocking tools rely on willpower — Otama doesn't. Every time you open a restricted app, you face a short brain challenge: math problems, pattern memory, number sequences, breathing exercises, and more. Fourteen challenge types in total, each scalable in difficulty per app. The friction is brief, useful, and impossible to autopilot through.
Built for digital wellbeing, productivity, and habit change, Otama works for students, remote workers, and anyone struggling with phone addiction, doomscrolling, or compulsive checking. Block social media, mobile games, video platforms, or any app that pulls your attention.
What You Can Do
• Replace your home screen with a clean, intentional launcher
• Set custom challenges for any installed application on your device
• Choose difficulty levels per app — gentle nudges or hard locks
• Switch between Casual mode (toggle freely) and Committed mode (a brain game required to disable blocking)
• Track your focus sessions and progress over time
• Personalize themes, layouts, and home page widgets
• Quick Opens dock for the apps you actually want fast access to
Challenge Types Fourteen cognitive interrupts, built to make you think before you open your favorite apps.
Choose the right tool for the right app. Quick math for casual scrolling apps. Hard memory tests for serious time sinks. Breathing exercises for moments when you just need to pause before continuing.
Who It's For
Students preparing for exams who lose hours to social platforms. Remote workers fighting deadline distractions. Parents wanting more present family time. People with problematic phone habits who find normal app limits too easy to dismiss. Anyone tired of opening the same handful of distracting apps on autopilot.
Otama works because it doesn't ask you to fight your impulses with willpower alone — it puts a small cognitive task between you and the apps you check without thinking.
Privacy
Otama needs Usage Access and Display Over Other Apps permissions to block applications. All data stays on your device. Nothing is sold, shared, or sent anywhere. Your usage patterns, app choices, and challenge stats remain private.
Otama is free to use with optional Premium for advanced features.
