ScreenBreak▲125Hi HN, I built ScreenBreak after realizing that most app blockers failed in practice. “Hard blocks” were too rigid — I either locked myself out entirely or tapped Ignore Limit and kept scrolling.

Site blockers on Chrome all run based on a freemium model, and i've always been annoyed by how I couldn't find one that had quite all of the features I need.
