ScreenBreak helps you take control of your screen time on Android — without ads, premium tiers, or data collection. Block apps completely, or unlock them with a breathing exercise or a physical movement. Family Mode included.
Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I'm Roman, a non-developer from Switzerland. I built
ScreenBreak because I kept catching myself doom-scrolling
on Instagram and TikTok — even though I "knew better".
I tried existing screen-time apps, but most had ads,
required PRO upgrades for basic features, or collected
user data. So I built what I actually wanted:
**A genuinely free Android app that helps you take a
deliberate pause before opening time-killing apps.**
🧘 **How it works:**
- Block apps completely (sofortige Sperre)
- OR require a breathing exercise (Box Breathing or Body Scan)
- OR require a physical movement (push-ups, squats, etc.)
- Set time limits with weekly stats and streaks
👨👩👧 **Two modes:**
- **Family Protection** — PIN-locked settings for parents
- **Self-Control** — open settings, you decide for yourself
✨ **What makes it different:**
- 100% free, forever — no PRO tier, no upsells
- Zero ads, zero tracking, zero data collection
- Everything runs locally on your device
- Available in 5 languages (EN, DE, FR, ES, IT)
- Bedtime schedules + weekly joker for streak protection
🙏 **I'd love your honest feedback:**
- Does the approach make sense?
- What features would you add?
- Any rough edges I should fix?
This is my first Product Hunt launch. I'm not asking for
downloads — just genuine input. Thanks for taking the time!
