Onyx Focus: App Blocker
Stop doomscrolling for good
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
iPhone
Most blockers die the second you delete them. Onyx has a Monk mode with no stop button that freezes your app list, so you can't cheat your way back to the feed.
Every app blocker lets you cheat. You delete it, or tap "ignore for today", and you're back in the feed. Onyx is the one you can't. Monk mode has no stop button and freezes your app list, so you can't delete your way out until the timer ends.
Pick your apps and websites once, then block them right now, on a weekly schedule, or in Pomodoro rounds. When you open a blocked app, a calm shield stands in the way and sends you back to what matters.
BLOCK NOW
Choose a duration from 15 minutes to 10 hours and start. The apps stay blocked until the timer runs out. Monk mode makes it strict: no stopping early, no deleting apps, until it ends.
SCHEDULES
Workday, Night, Weekend, or your own days and hours, overnight included. Onyx blocks automatically every week, even when the app is closed.
POMODORO
Focus in rounds, rest in between. Apps are blocked while you work and free on your breaks, with a notification at every switch.
ALWAYS ALLOWED
The apps you really need stay usable, even inside a blocked category.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account, no server, no tracking. Everything runs on your iPhone through the Screen Time system built into iOS. Onyx cannot even see which apps you chose.
FAIR PRICE
Try everything free for 7 days. Then one fair yearly price, or pay once and keep it forever. Cancel anytime in your Apple ID settings.
Onyx needs the Screen Time permission, which iOS asks for on first launch. It blocks apps on this iPhone, for you, not for managing someone else's device.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Onyx may now ask what you think after a completed focus session. At most a handful of times ever, never during a block. A rating helps a one-person app more than you know.
Also in 1.2: a fresh set of App Store screenshots and small polish under the hood.
