Tyme Boxed : Block & Focus

Tyme Boxed

About this app

Take back your hours.


We built Tyme Boxed on a simple belief: your phone should help you do more of what matters, not pull you away from it. So we made something you can't argue with: a small physical device that puts a real wall between you and the apps you can't put down.


Every blocker you've tried lives on the same phone you're fighting. One tap and it's gone. Tyme Boxed moves the off-switch off your phone entirely. Open the app, tap your device, and the distracting apps disappear until you walk back and tap again.

HOW IT WORKS
1. Pick. Choose the apps and websites that steal your day, and save them as a focus profile.
2. Start. Tap your Tyme Boxed device. The apps you picked vanish and blocked sites stop opening.
3. Tap to unlock. Walk to the device and tap. That walk is the whole point: the pause that breaks the reflex.


WHY IT WORKS WHEN NOTHING ELSE DID
* A physical barrier, not another setting you can dismiss
* Strict Mode stops apps from being uninstalled mid-session, so there's no sneaky bypass
* Blocks distracting websites too, not just apps
* NFC tap to unlock: no charging, no Wi-Fi, fully offline
* Emergency calls, messages and maps always stay on


THE APP LETS YOU
* Choose exactly which apps and sites stay open while you're focused
* Track your usage history and watch your undistracted hours grow
* Send feedback and feature requests straight to the creators


BUILT FOR EVERY PART OF YOUR DAY
* Deep work: block the loop, find the thread
* Better sleep: end the 1 a.m. scroll
* Family time: be there, all the way there
* More life: finish the book, hear the room

ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE USAGE Tyme Boxed uses the Android Accessibility Service to detect when you open restricted apps during focus sessions and redirect you to the home screen. It also reads browser URL bars to enforce website blocking rules you configure. No personal data is collected, stored, or shared through this service. All processing happens on-device in real time. You can disable this at any time in Settings > Accessibility.
