Impulse – Website Blocker, Screen Time & Focus Control

Block distractions, set smart limits, and control impulsive browsing with focus tools designed to stop quick overrides and cheating.

IImpulse – Website Blocker, Focus Timer & Screen Time Control Block distractions, set smart limits, run deep focus sessions, and stay accountable — with friction that actually holds when willpower doesn't. Struggling to stay focused or losing hours to endless browsing? Most blockers fail the moment you really want to cheat: one click and you're back on the site. Impulse is different. It lets you choose HOW HARD it is to break your own rules — from a gentle nudge, to physical friction with your phone, to a trusted person holding the key. Unlike traditional blockers, Impulse doesn't just block websites. It builds conscious friction that helps you form real focus habits. 🔒 THREE LEVELS OF WILLPOWER — you decide how strict Every block and limit can be set to a difficulty level, so the barrier matches how serious you are: • Easy — a mindful pause and confirmation. Perfect for building awareness. • 📱 Physical — to unlock, you must physically scan an NFC tag with Impulse App Put the tag in another room, a drawer, anywhere inconvenient. The friction is real and in the real world — no more mindless bypassing. • 👤 Hard (Supervision Mode) — a trusted person becomes your accountability partner. Unlocking requires a verification code that ONLY they receive by email. You literally can't do it alone. No impulsive escapes. This is what makes Impulse work when everything else fails. 🔑 CORE FEATURES 🔒 Strict Website Blocking Block distracting sites during work or study. Active blocks can't be bypassed — and with Physical or Hard difficulty, "just this once" isn't an option. ⏱ Time & Visit Limits Set daily limits for how long or how often you can open a site. Get warnings as you approach the limit, not just when it's too late. 🔥 Focus Sessions (Single-Tab Mode) Lock yourself into one tab and stay fully immersed. Switching tabs requires conscious confirmation. Add a timer to turn it into a structured focus sprint. 👥 Focus Groups (Accountability Mode) Join public challenges or create private groups with friends and family. Share focus rules, track progress together, and stay accountable as a team. 📊 Screen Time Tracking See exactly how much time you spend on each website. Your usage data is stored locally on your device. 🧠 Mindful Friction Tools Anti-scroll breaks, confirmation screens, usage warnings, and impulse countdowns — all designed to interrupt automatic, impulsive browsing. 🚀 Guided Setup Step-by-step wizards help you create your first blocks and limits in seconds — no configuration headaches. 💡 WHY IMPULSE Most website blockers rely on a single, easily-bypassed restriction. Impulse gives you a full spectrum of control: • Use Easy limits for balanced, everyday control. • Use Focus Sessions to kill multitasking. • Use Physical (NFC) blocks when willpower alone isn't enough. • Use Hard / Supervision Mode when access simply cannot be an option. • Use Groups to stay accountable with people you trust.
