Detach - App Blocker

Most screen time apps rely on willpower.

Detach doesn't.

Detach is an app paired with a physical NFC tag. Tap your phone on the tag and the apps and websites that pull at you are blocked. Tap again when you're ready to come back.

No timers to set. No settings to fight with. Just a small physical action that makes it harder to fall back into endless scrolling.

HOW DETACH WORKS

Choose what distracts you — social media, games, news, or any site you lose time to.

Tap your focus tag — Detach blocks them instantly.

Stay focused — your phone stays clear until you tap again.

That small physical step puts a real barrier between you and your distractions. One you have to reach for, not one you can swipe past.

DESIGNED FOR REAL LIFE

Studying — tap at your desk and block social media while you work.

Deep Work — start a session before something important and remove the interruptions.

Reading and Writing — keep your phone quiet while you concentrate.

Family Time — put the phone down and stay present with the people around you.

WHAT THE APP LETS YOU DO

• Choose exactly which apps and websites to block

• Save different Modes for different parts of your life

• Schedule sessions to start and end automatically

• Track your history and watch your screen time drop

• Set morning and night reminders, in your own words

• Keep a few emergency unlocks for when you genuinely need one

• Turn on Strict Mode, which stops Detach being uninstalled while a session is running

PRIVACY

Your app list, your schedules and your session history stay on your phone. Detach doesn't collect, sell or share what you do on your device. When you tap your focus tag, Detach sends only the tag's ID to our server to confirm it's a genuine Detach tag. Full details: https://getdetach.app/privacy-policy

Accessibility Service Disclosure: Detach requires Android's Accessibility Service to detect which app is currently open, which is essential for blocking distracting apps during your focus sessions. It also reads the address bar in supported browsers so that Detach can block the websites you choose. This service is used only to identify which app or website is in the foreground - no personal content, messages, or keystrokes are accessed. This permission is necessary for Detach's core app blocking functionality.
