Nudge: Focus & App Blocker Apple

Nudge: Focus & App Blocker

Limit Screen Time, App Locker

Features & Capabilities

Nudge is a focus app that reclaims your wasted phone time. Instead of blocking distracting apps entirely, Nudge lets you use them exactly how want to.

How it works:

  1. Choose which apps you want Nudge to help you with
  2. Tell Nudge how you want to use your apps (e.g., "No political content" or "Let me reply to Sarah's message" etc.)
  3. Nudge detects if you get distracted and gently pulls you away from distraction
  4. Use your phone exactly how you want and waste no time

TWO MODES FOR DIFFERENT NEEDS

Task Mode (Pro) AI detects when you're distracted from your stated goal. Get a gentle nudge to get back on track. No willpower required.

Timer Mode (Free) Set time limits for each time you use an app. Simple, effective, no AI.

WHY NUDGE IS DIFFERENT

Other blockers limit screen time, which works for a few weeks until it’s too annoying and people give up. Nudge is the first app to restrict phone use with nuance.

• Not just a blocker (but also a blocker): you can still use your apps, just more mindfully • Intelligent waiting room designs: the more you use distracting apps, the bigger the friction to access • AI understands context: scrolling Instagram for a friend's post? That's allowed. Falling down a Reels rabbit hole? You'll get nudged. • Builds better habits: over time, you'll naturally become more intentional

PERFECT FOR:

• Never checking "just one thing" that turns into an hour • Stopping to use media that steals your focus • Those fed up with other basic app blocking solutions • Anyone who wants to use their phone, not be used by it

Timer Mode is completely free.

I tried the other app blockers and this is the only one that actually helped me change my relationship with social media. I can still use my apps but I do it intentionally now and I feel so much better

I've used the other apps for years and they never really worked. I barely am on IG any more. Hope downloads are crushing accordingly!

I use Nudge all day long and it's honestly become essential for me. Task mode is amazing… being clear about what I'm actually opening the app for and having it keep me on track is such a simple idea but it works so well.I t already has so many great preventative features. The breathing exercise when you get nudged is great. I even find myself trying to game the timing on the task mode, knowing it takes a second to catch me, but even then it still stops me from mindlessly scrolling, which kind of proves the point. What I love is that no other app lets me actually use the things that keep me connected to people while breaking the addictive parts that come with them. My screen time is legit down 50-60% consistently compared to before. Like it ACTUALLY works and isn't some hardware thing I have to carry around or plug into. It just runs. Can't recommend it enough.
