Is this affiliated with SelfControl for Mac? That's my favorite desktop app - it's permanently on. I'm writing this comment from inside a virtual machine. (I was posting something on PH, so I really needed it.)

This is Broken

Been using the Mac version for ages, have been using an ad blocker as workaround, this looks like a great replacement! Nicely done! 👊🏻

Hello Hunters! My second submission. It will be free of charge today so that you can check it out. It is a very simple iOS app, you can use to block distracting websites. I developed it because I did not like alternative options available in the AppStore. You simply add a list of distracting websites and then you can no longer browse them on Safari. Due to iOS restrictions, you can disable the blockage by digging through Safari settings. However since I started using Self Control, I managed to eliminate my habit of mindlessly checking whether internet cats are still funny. Sorry Glasshole Kitty! ;)

Overall, I love the app! and it's been quite helpful in breaking my habit of randomly browsing to YouTube; nevertheless, I wish it had a schedule feature. PS: I normally start it a day ahead to ensure that I do not access YouTube in the morning.
