What is Nudge: Focus & App Blocker?

Nudge is an iPhone app for using Instagram, TikTok and YouTube on purpose. Tell it what you're there to do, like "post today's Reel" or "reply to DMs", and keep using the real apps. If you drift into Reels, Shorts or the For You feed, Nudge nudges you back.

The apps and websites you pick stay locked by iPhone's Screen Time, and you unlock them on purpose. Timer Mode is free: choose how long you need, and the app locks again when time's up. Nudge Pro adds Task Mode, waiting rooms that get longer the more you unlock, schedules, check-ins and custom block screens.

Features:

  • Lock apps and websites with iPhone's Screen Time
  • Timer Mode (free): unlock an app for the time you choose
  • Task Mode (Pro): say what you're there to do and get nudged back when you drift
  • Works inside the real Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X and other apps you lock
  • Waiting rooms with a breathing pause that grow the more you unlock (Pro)
  • Schedules, check-ins and custom block screens (Pro)
  • No ads

Privacy: Timer Mode never looks at your screen. Task Mode checks screenshots during a session you start, using Google's AI, and your screen is not stored.

iPhone only, iOS 17.6 or later. Made by BERG LLC. Not to be confused with Nudge Focus, a separate Mac app.
