What it does

Detach is a physical app blocker that locks distracting apps and notifications until you scan to unlock. Start your day without social media, avoid the morning dopamine spike that sets your behavior loop and tone for the day, and keep your focus. Leave the card at home and distractions stay locked. Unlike Brick, Blok, and Bloom, which charge $50 to $70, Detach delivers the same real-world friction at a fraction of the price, helping reduce screen time and break phone addiction. $10 only!

Detach is an app blocker that helps you reduce screen time by blocking social media and distracting apps. Free for iOS 17+. No account required.

  • With social media and now AI, its important to keep the indie web alive. There are many people who write frequently. Blogosphere tries to highlight them by fetching the recent posts from personal blogs across many categories. There are two versions: Minimal (HN-inspired, fast, static): https://text.blogosphere.app/ Non-minimal: https://blogosphere.app/ If you don't find your blog (or your favorite ones), please add them. I will review and approve it.
