App Description
Your phone steals 5+ hours of your day. Core Time locks it down — cold turkey.
Most screen time apps nudge you with gentle reminders, hoping you'll put the phone down on your own. That doesn't work. Core Time is a strict app blocker that enforces a hard lock on the apps and websites you choose. Once you tap Lock Now, there is no bypass, no snooze, no workaround. Blocked apps stay blocked until time's up. Period.
If you've tried other tools and still can't control your phone addiction, Core Time is built for you. This is digital detox that actually works.
▶ INSTANT APP BLOCKER
Set the timer. Select the apps you want to block. Tap Lock Now. Done in under 30 seconds. No complicated setup, no onboarding maze, no subscription wall before your first lock. Core Time lets you block apps and take back control of your screen time immediately.
▶ SCHEDULED LOCK — SET IT AND FORGET IT
Create recurring lock schedules for study blocks, deep work hours, or bedtime. Core Time activates and deactivates automatically on your schedule — zero daily effort after setup. Build consistent habits without relying on willpower every single day.
▶ NO WAY OUT — THE STRICTEST BLOCK ON iOS
During a lock session, blocked apps display a shield screen. You cannot bypass it. You cannot delete the app to escape. You cannot change device time to cheat. There is no secret menu, no override code, no "just five more minutes." This is the strictest app blocker on iOS — a true cold turkey blocker for people who are serious about breaking their phone addiction.
▶ BLOCK SOCIAL MEDIA & DOPAMINE TRAPS
Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Reddit, games — whatever drains your focus and feeds the dopamine cycle, Core Time blocks it. Stop doomscrolling. Stop the endless autoplay. Take control of your screen time and start your dopamine detox today.
▶ ONE-TAP RECOVERY
Something went wrong? Tap Fix Now in Settings and Core Time resets to a clean state instantly. Simple, safe, no hassle.
