Hey PH 👋 I built Bloxie because I have zero self-control with my phone. I tried other blocker apps, but they were too complex and had so many features I didn’t need. I just wanted a dead-simple way to lock myself out of TikTok, Instagram, and other distractions when I catch myself wasting my life scrolling for hours on end. With Bloxie, it’s a quick and easy solution where you can lock yourself out of any app as well as setting schedules if there’s set times you want to focus. My goal was to keep it minimal and effective, so you spend less time fiddling with the app and more time focused. Would love to hear your feedback, ideas, or any features you think could make Bloxie even more useful. Thanks for checking it out!

What's different between Bloxie and any other blocking app? Like Opal for example?
As someone who’s also lost hours to Instagram scrolls 😅 This feels refreshingly practical. Love that you built it out of personal need rather than trying to make it overly fancy. Excited to try Bloxie out!
I am happy to see that more people want to be mindful about their smartphone usage :) Good luck! :)
Love seeing apps that help people regain balance instead of adding more noise. The minimalist iOS design looks great. Congrats!
Relatable. Does it use system-level blocking or app timers? Congrats on the launch and good luck
Why are you focused on blocking the apps instead of solving the root problem?
Like why do you enjoy TikTok so much rather than other works?
