You said one quick scroll. It's been 30 minutes.
Walk first.
Then scroll.
The lock that lives outside your phone. A quiet little device that sits on your fridge. Pair it with the bloc app and your most addictive apps stay locked. Until you walk over and tap. The trip is short. The clarity is not.

The bloc device · NFC + magnet · No battery
The ritual
Three steps.
No app graveyards. No willpower.
01
Stick it on your fridge.
bloc has a strong magnet on the back. The fridge is far enough from the couch that walking is a tiny but real ask. And that is the whole trick.
02
Lock the noisy apps.
Open the bloc app, pick the apps that quietly steal your evenings, and tap to lock. Calls, messages, maps, and anything you mark essential stay open. You decide what counts as a distraction.
03
Walk over. Tap. Done.
Want Instagram back for a moment? Walk to the fridge, tap your phone on bloc, and you have it. The walk is the whole point.
The app
A focus app that
refuses to be addictive.
No streak guilt. No dark patterns. Just a quiet companion to the device on your fridge.

Shake, type a phrase, or tap the bloc tag. Pick how hard you want it to be to peek.
03
Watch the streak grow
Focus minutes, sessions, streaks. Quiet feedback. Not another dopamine slot machine.

Why not just use Screen Time
The phone cannot be the cure
for the phone.
Your phone was built by people paid to keep you scrolling. It will never be the cure for the scroll it sells.
How long to bypass
Screen Time
Tap, enter passcode, scroll. 3 seconds.
bloc
The walk to the fridge. One tap.
Where the friction lives
Screen Time
On the same phone you are trying to escape.
bloc
On a physical object across the room.
Willpower required
Screen Time
All of it. Every time.
bloc
Almost none. Your legs do the work.
What it costs
Screen Time
Free, and free to ignore.
bloc
₹899 once. Used every day.
Apple Screen Time and Android Digital Wellbeing are great when you remember they exist. bloc works because it does not ask you to remember anything.
From our user research
“I tried passwords, app limits, screen time settings. All failed. It is just one or two taps away. So I bought a second phone for ₹15,000 just to create physical separation.”

“Clarity is not about
doing more.
It's about doing the right things,
without the noise.”
bloc is not a productivity hack. It is a small, deliberate piece of furniture for your attention. You decide what matters. The walk to the fridge is just the bouncer.
Early voices
What people said
before bloc was a thing.
“I spent ₹15,000 on a second phone just to create physical distance from my apps. bloc does the same thing for a fraction of the cost.”
“I set a 15 minute Instagram limit every day. I tap Ignore For Today every day. I do not even think about it anymore.”
“I want to sleep by 10. I lie down at 9:30, reach for my phone for one quick scroll, and the next thing I know it is midnight. Nothing I tried worked.”
Questions
The honest answers.
Calls, messages, maps, ride apps, and anything you mark essential always stay unblocked. You decide what counts as a distraction. bloc never blocks the apps you actually need.
Because your phone was built by people paid to keep you scrolling, so the phone cannot be the cure for the phone. Built in tools take three seconds to bypass and live on the same device you are trying to escape. bloc lives across the room. The walk is the whole point.
iPhone with iOS 16.2 or later. Android with NFC, which is most phones made after 2017. If your phone can do contactless payment, it can use bloc.
No. bloc is a one time purchase. The iOS and Android apps are free, forever. No hidden fees, no monthly charges, no premium tiers locked behind a paywall.
Checkout is prepaid, through Razorpay, secure and encrypted: UPI, cards, net banking, and wallets. We do not offer cash on delivery yet. If the payment window will not open (some in app browsers block it) or you would rather pay another way, write to support@letsbloc.com and we will send you a direct payment link. Every order is covered by the 30 day money back guarantee.
bloc never sees which apps you block or how long you use them. The blocking happens on your phone, by your phone. We do not have a server full of your screen time. The bloc tag is passive NFC, it stores nothing and connects to nothing.
The bloc tag is a passive NFC chip. It does not need our servers, our cloud, or our app updates to keep working. Even if we vanish, your tag and the app you have installed keep doing their job.
30 day money back guarantee. If bloc is not helping you cut screen time, write to us and we refund you. No questions, no forms, no friction.
Free shipping across India. Orders go out within 48 hours and reach most cities in 4 to 7 business days. You get a tracking link as soon as it ships.
Shipped from Bir
Built solo, in the open.
bloc is built by one person from a mountain town in Himachal. No team, no office, no spin. Here is what shipped lately.
- Jun 2026Reworked accessibility across the site — visible focus states, proper labels, reduced-motion support.
- Jun 2026Made the site's own analytics honest — fixed the funnel events that were quietly mis-firing.
- Jun 2026Added a one-tap “copy checkout link” so the buy button still works inside Instagram and Bumble browsers.
Built solo · Bir, Himachal.
A note from the founder
I built bloc for myself first. After years of every app blocker, every passcode trick, every digital wellbeing toggle, the phone always won. Your phone was built by people paid to keep you scrolling. Friction inside the phone is fake friction.
So I moved the lock outside the phone. A small object on the fridge that I have to walk to. Most evenings now, I do not get up. The walk is short, but it is enough.
If you have been losing the same hours, this might be what finally helps.
