Monk Detox: Quit Your Phone

Monk Detox is an app blocker and screen time manager built for digital detox. Set time limits on social media, video and games, block distracting apps, and build an environment where you can actually focus on studying or work.

Willpower alone doesn't work. This app makes quitting structural — it builds an environment you can't talk your way out of.

────────────────────
■ MONK MODE — NO WAY BACK
────────────────────
Set a training period and take the vow. While it lasts, your settings are locked and the app cannot be uninstalled. Breaking the vow early means watching a set number of penance ads — you can require anywhere from 5 to 20.

If you really want to quit, the shortest path is to sit through it.

────────────────────
■ FOUR WAYS TO LIMIT AND BLOCK APPS
────────────────────
- Daily time limit
Set a daily cap per app. Go over it and the app is blocked instantly.

- Blocked hours
Shut apps out during a time window — "no social media from 9 PM to 7 AM." Ideal for breaking the late-night scrolling habit.

- Hourly time limit
Cap how long you can use an app within any single hour. Stops the slow drift into an hour-long scroll.

- After-wake block
Breaks the habit of reaching for your phone the moment you open your eyes. Tap the "I'm awake" notification and the block runs for as many minutes as you set. For anyone who loses their mornings in bed with a screen.

Every mode supports both a blocklist and an allowlist, so you can run something strict where only a handful of apps get through. The block screen tells you which app was stopped and why.

────────────────────
■ MERIT POINTS AND MONASTIC RANKS
────────────────────
Every limit you honour earns merit points and moves you up the ranks — from Novice through Elder and Dharma Master to Bodhisattva. Watching the progress accumulate is what turns focus into a habit.

The block screen also shows a zen quote, giving you a moment to stop rather than react.

────────────────────
■ SCREEN TIME HISTORY
────────────────────
See your Monk Mode sessions across the last 7 days on a timeline, alongside weekly screen time statistics. "I was on my phone until 2 AM that night" stops being a vague feeling. The record is honest.

────────────────────
■ EXTENSION REMINDER
────────────────────
Get a notification as your Monk Mode nears its end — it appears at the top of the screen even while you're in another app, and you can extend right there. Configurable from 30 minutes to 24 hours.

────────────────────
■ AVAILABLE IN 6 LANGUAGES
────────────────────
Japanese, English, Korean, Spanish, Portuguese and French. Switch the display language any time from inside the app.

────────────────────
■ WHO IT'S FOR
────────────────────
- You want to cut down on social media, short-form video or games
- You want less screen time and more focus for study or work
- You want to change what you do before bed and first thing in the morning
- You know you're addicted to your phone, and willpower keeps failing
- Soft settings never stick. You want something that actually holds

────────────────────
■ PRIVACY AND SAFETY
────────────────────
All of your settings are encrypted and stored on your device. Nothing personal is ever sent to an external server.

* App blocking requires Usage Access permission.
* Uninstall protection during Monk Mode uses Device Administrator permission.
