## Description

Blocking websites is easy. Unblocking them can be just as easy, which is why most blockers do not work with you in a moment of need.<br><br>B-Simple is built around that moment.<br><br>When you block a site, you write down why. When you later try to lift that block, B-Simple shows you your own words, then asks you to wait, then asks you to type a phrase. Even then the site unblocks for only fifteen minutes before locking itself again.<br>The wait is a gentle space between you and content you are seeking to avoid.<br><br>Uninstalling is not obstructed. If you need this, keep it.<br><br>Free features:<br>- Block any site, including its subdomains<br>- Your own reason, shown back to you at the moment you look to remove blocking<br>- A wait you choose, from 10 minutes to an hour<br>- Safe search for Google, Bing and DuckDuckGo<br>- Recently blocked, so you can see what was caught and why<br>- Warnings when something can bypass the app<br><br>One premium payment adds:<br>- A curated adult pack: around 4,750 sites, filtered to leave health, education and support services alone<br>- Import your own lists: plain lists, hosts files or CSV, however large<br>- Keyword blocking: block any site whose name contains a word you choose<br><br>No account, no ads and no trackers. Nothing about you leaves your device.  No subscriptions - one premium payment, if you choose.<br><br>How it works:<br>B-Simple uses Android&#39;s VpnService to filter DNS on your device. The tunnel is local: it carries no traffic to any server. Nothing you browse is collected, stored or sent.<br><br>What this won&#39;t block:<br>Blocking works by domain name, so it cannot block a single page or a site reached by a raw IP address. A browser using its own secure DNS will bypass it. Android allows one VPN at a time, so B-Simple cannot run alongside another.<br><br>Think of this as help with the habitual path. The determined one will always find a way.
