ScreenBreak

ScreenBreak helps you spend less time on social media — in a healthy way.

Once your self-set limit for TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, or other apps is reached, the app gets blocked. To unlock it again, you do a short physical exercise: push-ups, squats, or burpees. This way you not only build awareness of your screen time but also move more.

⚡ EASIER THAN YOUR PHONE
Android has built-in screen time features, but they're buried, complicated, and lack real motivation. ScreenBreak is set up in 30 seconds, has one screen to tap, and gives you a real reason to respect the limit with its Workout Unlock.

🏋️ WORKOUT UNLOCK
Limit reached? Choose your exercise. Count and duration grow with every additional unlock on the same day — the more you use, the harder you work.

🛑 HARD LIMIT
Want uncompromising discipline? Enable Hard Limit — no workout unlock, the app stays blocked until the next reset.

🔄 FLEXIBLE COUNTER RESET
Choose how often your limits reset: every 4h, 8h, 12h, 16h, or 24h.

📊 WEEKLY STATS
See your usage trends, completed workouts, and minutes saved over the last 7 days.

🔒 FAMILY PROTECTION MODE
For parents: PIN-locked settings, uninstall protection, and protection against being disabled via Android Accessibility Settings — so your kids can't simply bypass the limits. Protection is only active when you deliberately activate Family Mode and set a PIN.

🌐 BROWSER PROTECTION
Smart anti-bypass: when you reach the app limit for TikTok or YouTube, ScreenBreak also blocks tiktok.com and youtube.com in the browser.

💛 100% FREE — FOREVER
No ads, no subscriptions, no hidden paywalls. All features are and remain free. If the app helps you, you can optionally buy the developer a coffee — entirely voluntary.

Reduce screen time with workouts. Free, ad-free, no tracking.

🔐 PRIVACY
All data stays local on your device. No cloud, no servers, no tracking. We know nothing about you or your usage.

⚙️ PERMISSIONS
ScreenBreak uses the Android Accessibility Service to detect app switches and prevent browser bypasses. The app reads no content, no text, no personal data — only which app is in the foreground and which address bar the browser shows.

In Family Mode (PIN-protected, optional), the service additionally prevents children from disabling the protection via Android system settings — this falls under Google Play's exception for parental control apps.
