OpenAd: App Blocker

OpenAd is a screen time app that makes distraction inconvenient on purpose. Gate the apps that eat your time, and when you reach for one, you'll watch an ad before it unlocks your apps. FREE FOREVER. NO SUBSCRIPTION, EVER. OpenAd is funded entirely by ads — everyone's least favorite thing, put to good use. No paywall, no premium tier, no monthly fee. Just a free tool that helps you take back your attention. HOW IT WORKS • Pick the apps, categories, or websites you want to gate • Open one, and OpenAd asks you to watch a short ad first • Watch 1 ad to unlock for 5 minutes, or 3 ads for 15 • When the time's up, it locks back automatically — no willpower required WHY IT WORKS The friction is the feature. Mindless opening becomes a small, deliberate choice. Over time you'll catch yourself walking away instead of watching — and OpenAd keeps score so you can see your resistance grow. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your Screen Time data never leaves your device and is never shared with advertisers. No account, no sign-up, nothing to log into. Take back your attention. Free, forever.
