v 2024.1

NEW: Block Apps for Better Sleep!

Many people struggle with sleep procrastination, mindlessly scrolling on their phones for hours instead of going to bed on time. To wake up feeling more rested and energized, setting up an automatic app and website blocker can help you avoid this pitfall.

Schedule a blocker to activate automatically overnight as a gentle nudge to stop scrolling and shut off distractions for a good night's sleep!

v 2023.2.4

NEW: Focus Filters

Shut out distractions automatically – without the need to invest much thought and willpower.

With the Focus Filters feature, you can activate an Attentive app blocker when enabling a Focus mode. By tying a blocker to a Focus mode, you can not only silence notifications but also block distracting apps and websites!

For example, you can let your "Deep Focus" blocker run when you enable Do-Not-Disturb or tie your "Evening Wind-down" blocker to run with your "Sleep" Focus.

Setting up the Attentive Focus Filter takes just a few taps, and scheduling app blocking can greatly help you establish healthy phone habits without requiring much thought or willpower.

This is a really cool and powerful feature for carving out some distraction-free time in your day, which will ultimately benefit your mental health.

Your feedback and questions are always very welcome! You can contact us via — > support@meaningful-things.com
