I kept trying different iPhone screen-time blockers, but they were all way too easy to bypass. I also found options such as Brick and Bloom that offer a physical device to block and unblock apps, but they were expensive. I built BarBlock to provide all the features of a physical app blocker at a much lower cost. BarBlock lets you block selected apps by scanning any barcode you already have. Here are the main differences from other blocker apps: Uses physical resistance (barcode scanning), not just software limits No physical device to buy, unlike other physical blocker apps No subscriptions, no accounts Unlimited app blocking Works fully offline (all data stays on your phone) Happy to answer questions or get feedback, especially from people who’ve tried other blockers that didn’t stick.
