AbhiNow: App Blocker & Limits app analytics for October 1

AbhiNow is a free app blocker and screen time tracker for Android — block distracting apps, set app limits, and stop doomscrolling with a calm pause instead of a hard wall. Most app blockers fight you. AbhiNow works with you. The moment you reach for a time-wasting app, you get a brief pause — then walking away becomes the win. HOW IT WORKS - Reach — open a blocked app like you always do. - Pause — a quiet full-screen moment: one slow breath, a line to type, or a short stillness. - Choose — walk away, that's the win. Or, if it truly matters, go in anyway. You stay in control. That small gap between impulse and action is enough to break the scroll habit. It can feel like phone addiction, but it isn't a willpower problem — feeds are designed to remove the pause. AbhiNow puts it back. BLOCK APPS YOUR WAY - Block any app — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, X, Snapchat, WhatsApp, games, or anything you choose. - Block apps on a schedule — set "shields" for work hours, study time, or bedtime. - App limits — an app timer that blocks after a daily time limit, or after a number of opens. - Deep Focus — a locked focus timer for distraction-free work, study and revision. - Rest an app till tomorrow — one tap when a single app keeps pulling at you. - Commitment lock — lock your whole setup for a set time, with no early exit. SEVEN CALM PAUSES, NOT LOCKOUTS Breathing, a grounding line to type, a stillness pause, a "why am I reaching?" check, quick math, a note to self, and a reality check on today's usage. They adapt: each time you open anyway, the next pause gets a little firmer. SCREEN TIME TRACKER & DIGITAL WELLBEING A daily presence score, screen time per app, category breakdowns, trends, streaks, and an honest estimate of the time you've reclaimed — plus achievements, presence tiers, and a home-screen widget to start a focus session in one tap. AN APP BLOCKER THAT KEEPS WORKING Most Android blockers fail silently — the system kills them in the background and your shields stop. If you've tried an app blocker that stopped working on Xiaomi, Samsung, OnePlus, Oppo, Realme, Vivo, Huawei or Poco, that's why. AbhiNow walks you through the exact battery, autostart and MIUI settings for your device, then checks they're still in place. WHY ABHINOW IS DIFFERENT - Agency, not restriction — "you can still open this, just pause first" keeps you in charge. - Calm by design — no rage-inducing lockouts, no punishing streaks, no dark patterns. - Identity, not shame — you're treated as someone who's present, never a problem to be fixed. - Honest metrics — estimates are marked as estimates, and stats can't be gamed by toggling permissions. WHAT'S INCLUDED Every intercept and every blocking mode is included at no cost — schedules, app limits, locked Deep Focus and the commitment lock. Not a trial. The free tier protects one connected set of apps. Premium adds depth: guard multiple independent app sets, Deep Focus breaks and Pomodoro mode, scheduled commitment locks, your full Timeline history, custom mantras, and every theme. PRIVATE AND OFFLINE 100% on your device. No account. No sign-up. No tracking. No ads. Your usage data never leaves your phone, and AbhiNow works offline. PERMISSIONS, PLAINLY AbhiNow never reads your screen content, what you type, or your passwords. It uses Android's Accessibility Service to see only which app you've just opened — nothing more. Allow it to run without battery restrictions so your shields hold.
