## Description

Bloom helps you conquer distractions by requiring an NFC keycard to access distracting apps. Select the apps and sites you want to block, then simply tap your Bloom card to your phone to activate focus mode. Stay productive with a tactile, physical tool that reduces impulsive taps.

Plan your day with schedules, set limits on breaks, and use Strict Mode to prevent deleting the app while focused. If you need a quick exit, Emergency Exits unblock all apps without your card up to three times. Privacy stays on your device, and your screen-time data are never shared.

## Review summary

Bloom is praised for significantly reducing screen time and boosting focus thanks to the NFC card and scheduling-based blocking of apps and websites. While effective when it works, users report reliability issues with scheduling and occasional glitches that require resets. A common drawback is the need to buy the NFC card, which adds cost. Overall, the app is valued for focus gains, but reliability and hardware cost are recurring concerns.

### Pros

- Significantly reduces doomscrolling and overall screen time, boosting focus and productivity.
- Physical NFC card paired with the app enables blocking apps and websites, providing tangible control.
- Scheduling/auto-blocking feature helps manage usage across different times and days.
- Generally easy to reset or adjust when plans/change requirements.

### Cons

- Scheduling/auto-blocking can be unreliable or glitchy, sometimes not triggering or blocking at the wrong times.
- Requires purchasing and carrying an NFC card to function well, with perceived high cost and few workable workarounds.
- Periodic glitches cause blocks to fail or require manual resets; behavior can be inconsistent across sessions.
