FocusMe is a native iOS app that blocks distracting apps and websites - built entirely on Apple's Screen Time API. Set instant or scheduled blocks, daily app limits, and a Strict Mode that can't be bypassed when you need real focus. A shield screen interrupts the autopilot habit instead of just letting you scroll. Made by one indie developer.
Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm Alex, an indie iOS developer from Germany. I built FocusMe because I had the same problem everyone has - picking up my phone "for a second" and losing an hour.
I tried the popular blockers, but most were either easy to ignore or wanted $100/year. So I built the one I actually wanted: a native iPhone app, with a Strict Mode that genuinely holds, app limits, schedules, and a shield screen that makes you pause before doomscrolling.
I'd love your honest feedback, especially on what would make Strict Mode stick for you. Happy to answer anything.
