Simple Detox requires the Accessibility Service API to detect when a blocked application is opened and to display a focus overlay. This is the core functionality. Simple Detox does not collect, store, or share any personal data or usage history. All operations are performed locally on your device.

• PiP Shield: Advanced detection of floating Picture-in-Picture windows to prevent "stealth" scrolling.
• Serverless Privacy: 100% offline. We don't track you. Your data stays on your device.
