Screen Seal
Screen Time & App Blocking
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Seal is a screen time app and app blocker for iPhone that helps you limit apps, reduce scrolling, and protect your focus. Using science backed- positive reinforcement, not guilt.
If you’re looking for a screen time limiter, distraction blocker, or digital wellbeing app that actually sticks, Screen Seal blocks the apps and categories you choose, on schedules you control, and helps you pause before you open Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, and other time sinks.
Full access to the experiences below requires a Screen Seal membership (auto‑renewable In‑App Purchase), billed weekly or annually. With a membership, you can build healthier screen habits with:
• App blocker that respects your choices — block specific apps, not your whole phone
• Screen time control with flexible rules — work hours, evenings, weekends, or all-day “brick” mode
• Focus app with real friction — interventions when you tap a blocked app, so autopilot scrolling breaks
• Digital detox support — detox sessions when you need a harder reset
• Positive screen time tracker — daily goals, usage insights, and streaks that reward consistency
SCREEN TIME BLOCKING THAT FITS YOUR LIFE
Set up blocking rules in minutes:
• Brick Mode — block apps all day, every day
• Work Focus — weekdays until evening
• Weekend Detox — Saturday & Sunday
• Evening Wind Down — late-night scroll protection
• Mindful Morning — start the day without distraction
Pick multiple rules at once. Each rule can have its own app list—so your work block isn’t your weekend block.
PAUSE BEFORE YOU SCROLL
When a blocked app opens, Screen Seal can run a short intervention instead of a harsh lockout:
• Reflection prompts — quick check-in before you continue
• Breathing exercise — calm your nervous system in seconds
• Mirror mode — pause and notice the urge to scroll
• Seal Team 6 — light, memorable moments to break the habit loop
Great if you want a screen time app that feels human.

• Daily screen time goal — set a target and stay aware
