Rebound: App Blocker

Your phone isn't the problem. The dopamine is.

Every scroll trains your brain to crave more stimulation and tolerate less boredom, until sitting with your own thoughts feels impossible. That is not a discipline problem. It is dependence, and Rebound is the first app built to treat it like one: reduce the source, replace the reward, and track your recovery on one honest metric.

MEET YOUR BATTERY

Your Battery is a live reading of your dopamine baseline. It fills as your brain recovers and drains when you feed the loop, moving through four bands: Fried, Foggy, Clear, and Dialed. No streaks to lose. No guilt graphs. Just where your head is right now, and a clear path back up.

BLOCK THE APPS THAT DRAIN YOU

All-day rules: keep TikTok, Instagram, or any app behind a shield around the clock
Schedules: lock apps during mornings, work hours, or whenever you slip most
Block Now: start an instant session with one tap, 5 minutes to 8 hours
Hard Mode: full commitment, no early exit, no edits, uninstall friction until the window ends
EVERY OPEN HAS A PRICE

When you tap a blocked app, Rebound does not just say no. It intervenes:

Take a breath. A short guided pause interrupts the impulse.
Face the question: is this how you want to spend your time?
Decide with the cost in front of you. Opening drains your Battery. Walking away earns it back.
Put the phone down and Rebound notices: "You walked away from TikTok this afternoon. +6." That is the addiction loop running in reverse.

KNOW WHERE YOUR ATTENTION GOES

Insights: screen time, pickups, and notifications, with your most draining apps ranked
Focus Check: a 30 second self-check that verifies your Battery against how you actually feel
Time Reclaimed: every hour you win back from your old baseline, counted since day one

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Rebound runs on Apple's Screen Time framework. Everything stays on your iPhone: no account, no sign-up, no server. We cannot see which apps you use or what you do in them, and neither can anyone else.
