About this app

Untap — Take Control of Your Screen Time.

Tired of losing hours to TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, and other distracting apps? Untap is a powerful digital wellbeing app and app blocker designed to break your phone addiction, stop mindless scrolling, and boost your daily productivity.

How Untap Works
When you try to open a blocked or controlled app, Untap deploys a calm, customizable pause shield with a countdown timer. This brief delay introduces mindful friction, shattering your autopilot habit loop and giving your brain a conscious choice: Do you really want to open this right now?

Key Focus & Productivity Features
• Pause Shield: Set a configurable delay (5–60 seconds) before distracting apps open. Just enough friction to stop doomscrolling without inducing frustration.
• Session Timer: Control your daily limits. Set exact time limits for each social or gaming session. When time runs out, the focus shield locks it back down.
• Strict Focus Mode: Schedule completely distraction-free hours for studying or work. Block toxic notifications and keep your brain in a deep focus flow state.
• Dopamine Detox Challenges: Need an extra shield? Require solving a quick math challenge or puzzle to unlock apps when you need strict discipline.
• Hard Lock & Strict Mode: Lock yourself completely out of specific addictive apps with zero bypass options for ultimate productivity.
• Visual Screen Time Tracker: Monitor your real digital habits at a glance. View beautifully designed donut charts showing your overall screen time activity and controlled app stats.
• Detailed Analytics: Review weekly focus reports to trace which platforms hijack your attention and map out your self-improvement progress.

Why Choose Untap over other App Blockers?
Modern social media algorithms are engineered to keep you hooked with infinite scroll and variable dopamine rewards. Untap gives you your attention span back. It works silently in the background as your personal study timer, habit tracker, and focus companion.

ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE API DISCLOSURE
Untap uses the AccessibilityService API to function effectively as an app blocker and focus tool.
• Purpose: We use this service solely to detect when you attempt to open or use a distracting app that you have selected for control. This allows the app to deploy the pause shield, block access, and enforce your session timers.
• Data Privacy: Untap does not collect, monitor, store, or share any personal data, text inputs, or browsing history via the Accessibility Service. All operations happen strictly on your local device.

Take back your time, cure your screen addiction, and stay disciplined today. Download Untap and reclaim your focus!

Ratings and reviews

The app is really good, At first I had doubts about whether or not it's gonna be like OneSec but it's better. It strict, harder to get through and almost everything is unlocked in the free tier. love it! One thing that I would recommend you to add will be to add some barrier so that the user cannot enable after disabling it. Alot of times when I'm bored I just turn it off and nothing happens!

I am writing to report a significant security flaw involving your app's hardlock feature. Even when an app like Instagram is hardlocked, the restriction can be bypassed by opening the recent apps menu, selecting the Instagram icon, dragging it upward and holding it without releasing or dismissing it. Then, returning to the app, this gesture allows unrestricted access to the application. Please investigate and patch this vulnerability.

I've tried about 5 different apps now, and this is by far the best one for me. Offers delays on open rather than full blocks, and it actually blocks websites in firefox, which I've found few apps that do. Really happy about it.
