Stillscreen: Focus & Blocker

Stillscreen is a free app blocker and focus timer for students and anyone doing deep work. Block distracting apps, start a study timer, and build a streak. No ads. No account. Nothing leaves your phone.

Pick the apps that pull you away, start a session, and Stillscreen steps in whenever you try to open them. Finish the timer, grow your streak, and watch your focus level climb.

BLOCK DISTRACTIONS
• Choose the apps to block. One tap adds a whole group, like social media or video.
• Start a focus session of 25, 50, 90 minutes, or any length you like.
• A calm block screen replaces the app, so the urge passes instead of winning.
• Strict mode locks a session until the timer ends.
• Your phone's dialer and Settings are never blocked.

STAY MOTIVATED
• Daily streaks, with rest days you earn so one missed day does not erase your progress.
• Focus levels from Seed to Summit. Every minute counts toward the next one.
• A weekly recap, your best time of day to focus, and a heatmap of your last five weeks.
• Badges for streaks, long sessions and early starts.
• Pomodoro rounds with suggested short and long breaks.
• A daily reminder that stays quiet once you have reached your goal.

BUILT FOR STUDENTS
• Exam countdown, so you always know how many days you have left.
• Study sessions that fit a revision timetable, from quick bursts to long blocks.
• A mindful pause screen with a breathing moment before an app opens.

BUILT FOR WORK
• End-of-day wind-down: pause work apps like email and chat after hours.
• Choose your own hours and days.
• Deep-work sessions that keep you on one task.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• No internet permission. Your sessions, streaks and settings stay on your phone.
• No ads and no tracking.
• You can share your streak as an image whenever you want, and only then.

HOW BLOCKING WORKS
Stillscreen uses Android's Accessibility Service for one purpose: to detect which app is open, so it can show a block screen over the apps you chose during a focus session. It does not read what is on your screen, what you type, or your passwords, and it does not send anything off your phone. You can turn it off at any time in Android settings.

KEEP BLOCKING RELIABLE
Some phones stop background apps to save battery. Stillscreen has a built-in guide and a blocking health check that shows whether blocking is running and how to fix it.
