Every other blocker has an off switch, and at 1am you find it. Pawl has no unlock button: blocking any app or site is instant, but opening it needs a physical security key (any FIDO2 key) in hand, plus a 15-minute wait. Keep the key in a drawer, or give it to someone you trust. No account, no server, no tracking, open source. Free, with optional Pro for schedules and reports. Built by an indie dev who blocks his own Polymarket with it.

I was inspired to make this for my friends and family that have physical security keys with no good place to use them. I noticed most all people struggle with an app that they use too much or want to limit themselves with. So I made Pawl. I wanted to solve the problem of blocking apps and making it awkward or difficult to unblock them by using a key you can give to someone else or put away in a vault. My code evolved drastically over the launch.
