Blank Out

Most app blockers force you to stop using your favorite apps all at once. That might work for a few days, but lasting habits are built through gradual change. Blank Out takes a different approach. Instead of suddenly blocking apps, Blank Out creates a personalized plan that slowly reduces your daily screen time over time. Small weekly changes make it easier to build healthier habits that last. Features • Personalized screen time reduction plans • Gradual weekly reductions instead of drastic limits • Daily app time limits • Schedule app blocking for work, school, or sleep • Block Now mode for distraction-free focus sessions • Track your daily progress • Clean, simple, distraction-free design Why Blank Out? Many screen time apps rely on strict limits that are easy to ignore or disable. Blank Out focuses on long-term behavior change by reducing your screen time gradually, helping you spend less time on your phone without making the transition feel overwhelming. Blank Out gives you the tools to build healthier digital habits, improve focus, and regain control of your time—one small step at a time. Accessibility Service Usage Blank Out uses Android's AccessibilityService API as part of its core app-blocking functionality. The Accessibility Service allows Blank Out to detect when you open an app that you have chosen to limit or block. This enables Blank Out to display its blocking screen when a selected app has reached its time limit or is currently scheduled to be blocked. Accessibility access is optional and must be enabled by the user through Android's Accessibility settings. Blank Out only uses this access to provide the app-blocking features selected by the user. Blank Out does not use the AccessibilityService API to change device settings without permission, prevent users from disabling or uninstalling apps, bypass Android privacy controls, or perform actions on the user's behalf.
