Retakr: App & Website Blocker for Focus and Productivity

Beat phone addiction, reclaim your time, and boost your productivity with Retakr. Designed for those seeking Deep Work and real screen time control, Retakr is a strict, minimalist, and privacy-focused app blocker and website blocker.

Unlike other digital wellbeing apps, Retakr operates on a 100% offline philosophy. We don’t ask for emails, we don’t have servers, and we don’t track your data. Your focus rules and usage history belong only to you.

🚀 Why choose Retakr as your Focus Blocker?

If you struggle with infinite scrolling on social media, waste hours on entertainment sites, or can't maintain concentration while studying for the Bar Exam, MCAT, Medical Boards, or competitive exams, Retakr is the ultimate barrier between you and distraction. Improve your self-control and discipline today.

📵 App Blocker and Self-Control

Select the apps that sabotage your day. Block Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, or games with a single tap.

Manual Blocking: Activate instant focus whenever you need digital silence.

Daily Usage Limits: Set a time quota (e.g., 30 min of social media per day). Once the limit is reached, access is cut off to ensure your productivity.

Smart Scheduling: Create automatic routines so messaging apps stay blocked during work, study, or sleep.

🌐 Website Blocker and Content Filter

Procrastination often migrates from the app to the browser. Retakr allows you to restrict specific URLs in Chrome and other popular browsers.

URL Blocking: Prevent access to news sites, gossip, or social media via the browser.

Topic Filtering: Automatically block categories such as adult content (pornography), gambling, violence, and drugs.

Custom Keywords: Create your own filtering rules for a safe and productive browsing environment.

🔒 Strict Mode and Anti-Bypass Protection

For those who struggle with self-discipline, Strict Mode turns Retakr into a fortress against procrastination.

Settings Locking: Access to accessibility and system administration settings is intercepted, preventing you from disabling restrictions during impulsive moments.

Uninstall Protection: Prevents the app from being removed to bypass app and website blocking rules.

🔐 PIN Security and Cooling Period

8-digit PIN: Secure your settings and avoid impulsive changes.

5-Hour Cooldown: If you decide to reset your PIN, Retakr enforces a mandatory 5-hour countdown. This "cooling period" ensures the distraction impulse passes before you can alter the rules.

🎯 Benefits for Your Routine:

Students: Shield against notifications for study marathons and the Pomodoro technique.

Professionals: Increase your focus at work and reduce time wasted on digital multitasking.

Mental Health and Sleep: Reduce "infinite scroll" anxiety and improve sleep hygiene by blocking distractions at night.

Digital Detox: A real tool for those who want to reduce addiction to cheap dopamine from social media.

🔑 Privacy First

No Data Collection: We do not monitor your activity or statistics.

Zero Cloud: Your data and rules never leave your phone.

Accessibility Service Usage:

To ensure effective website and app blocking, Retakr uses the Accessibility Service. This permission allows the app to identify the foreground application and the URL opened in the browser to apply your focus rules.

Guaranteed Privacy: Retakr uses this API only for local blocking purposes. No screen content or browsing history is read, stored, or transmitted. Processing is 100% offline on your device.
