ScreenZen・Screen Time Control v2.1.7
screenzenAbout this app
Developer Description
Delay opening, interrupt scrolling, block apps and websites, reduce screen time.
Pause before opening apps or websites:
Take a moment before launching a distracting app. The wait time can increase with each use, helping you build intention — a technique also seen in apps like Opal.
Interrupt your scrolling:
Limit your time on distracting apps to short bursts so you don’t get pulled in. If you’ve tried tools like Opal, this approach will feel familiar.
Set usage goals:
Define daily limits per app — and optionally block access when you hit your target.
Customize by day and time:
Flexible settings for different days of the week and hours of the day, tailored per app.
Mindful prompts before opening apps:
Messages like “Is this important?” encourage reflection — a small but powerful habit, also appreciated by users of focus-first apps like Opal.
See only the screen time that matters:
Track your time on distracting apps only. Productive tools like Google Maps won’t distort your stats.
ScreenZen uses Accessibility permissions to block websites.

Out of all the screen time apps I have used, this is the best. I keep finding ways to bypass these apps one way or another, but ScreenZen makes it quite difficult. Works great, especially on my iPad.
Update! Noticed some bugs. The timer to change settings in an app group still continues in the background even when the phone is off or you change to another app. The old app wouldn't be so forgiving. Before, the moment you turned to another app, the timer would reset, or "oh your screen went to sleep? too bad, you wait all over again" Bring that back please. I'm sure people have noticed this issue as well. I'll update my review once this is fixed.
Used to have a setting to prevent changing settings within ScreenZen until x amount of time had passed. new update seems to have removed this which makes the app to easy to bypass.
the app was perfect but after the update the option to make you wait for the disable the block doesn't appear anymore and thats was my favorite option:'(
This app used to be perfect. Per-website blocking was consistent, and I explicitly opted into “cannot uninstall” and “settings lock” (PIN + wait). After an update, website blocking became inconsistent, all blocks could be removed instantly despite the prior lock, and worst of all there was no in-app way to undo the “cannot uninstall” state. Device Admin screens were still blocked, and I had to use Safe Mode to remove it. Unacceptable regression.
