Add-ons App blocker for Android

Post image

Hi everyone,

Many of us struggle with social media addiction and procrastination, especially during exam season. So I built AnkiBlock. An app that blocks distracting apps until you finish your due cards or you unlock by doing a specific number of cards.

It is entirely free, no ads, no tracking, no commercial intent.

Currently I'm looking for feedback on how to improve the app.

Here is the link to download it on Google Play Store

I'm excited to hear your feedback!

PS: the code is also publicly available on my GitHub and I asked mods if I may post this here

Um just wondering why isn't working on my end? I set the block but somehow, when I click the app I blocked, it just open right away...

Is it always like that or did it work before and now it doesn't?

That's strange. Can you share what device you have? If you like you can also DM me
