Custom Block Lists and Daily Schedules
BlockSite centers on custom lists that group distracting apps and websites into rules you can switch on when work, study, or personal routines need more structure. The Home screen keeps these groups together, while scheduling tools let access change around chosen hours instead of forcing the same restriction all day.
A Create action starts the first blocking group, and the navigation keeps Home, App Limit, Focus Mode, and Insights within quick reach. This setup suits people who want separate lists for social media, news, games, or other recurring distractions. Once Accessibility access is enabled, the app can apply those selections while leaving the user in control of when each group is active.
Focus Mode Timers and Planned Breaks
Focus Mode turns blocking into a timed work session rather than a permanent ban. Users build a Focus List, choose the apps or sites that should stay unavailable, then set a timer with a break period. This Pomodoro-style rhythm gives study blocks, writing sessions, or deep-work intervals a clear beginning and end.
The Focus List and Timer Setup tabs separate content selection from session length, so the workflow remains easy to adjust before starting. App Limit adds another option for controlling daily access outside a dedicated session. Together, these tools support both short bursts of concentration and longer routines without requiring users to abandon useful apps for the rest of the day.
Insights for Browsing and App Habits
Insights helps users understand where screen time goes before deciding what to restrict. The dashboard is designed to surface website and app browsing trends, giving a clearer picture of repeated habits and making block lists easier to base on actual behavior rather than guesswork.
New users may need to activate the feature and wait while enough activity is collected; the empty state indicates that results can take about 24 hours to appear. Once data is available, the same bottom navigation makes it easy to move between trends, block groups, limits, and focus sessions. This feedback loop is useful for reviewing whether a schedule is reducing distractions or simply shifting attention elsewhere.
Cloud Backup and Everyday Focus Controls
BlockSite can be used without signing in for basic navigation, while an account adds continuity through block-list backup, stars, and reward redemption. That separation lets users explore the local blocking workflow first, then decide whether cloud features or multi-device use fit their routine.
The side menu also gathers practical controls such as Blocking status, Coacher, Silence Mode, and Cooldown, alongside sign-in and account access. These controls provide different ways to make focus rules harder to ignore or easier to maintain during the day. Students, remote workers, and anyone rebuilding phone habits can combine local lists, optional account features, and session controls according to how strict or flexible each situation needs to be.
