Inspired by a well known SelfControl, it aims to provide a similar functionality on iOS.
Have you ever wasted your time on the Internet? Having trouble getting stuff done because of procrastination? Do you need more self control?
This app allows you to temporarily block distracting (or all) websites on Safari browser. You can unlock them again but it requires that you think twice before doing so: "Do I really need to browse funny cat pictures right now?". Optionally you can set a timer, not allowing you to unblock distracting websites until the time is up.
Getting rid of your wasteful browsing habits is as easy as downloading this app and adding your favorite time wasters list. A predefined list of potentially distracting websites is provided. More freedom and focus GUARANTEED.

Ratings and Reviews
Works now!
Initially the instructions aren’t quite clear enough - Safari has two ‘Content blocker’ options.
Simple site blocker
Wanted a simple app to be able to block websites for a certain amount of time without letting me unblock them again. This does exactly that. I can block website for hours, days, weeks, months or years if I wanted to for some reason. Keeps me from mindlessly scrolling and wasting time. Perfect!
Only Safari, not for Chrome, etc.
This is a good app. Works well. Would be even better if it could work for Chrome and other leading browser apps!
