About Brick - Ditch Distractions
Brick is a combination of software and NFC-powered hardware that temporarily removes distracting apps (and their notifications) from your phone - leaving only the powerful tools you choose.
With Brick, simply open the app and tap your device to block all distracting apps and notifications. Until you return to the device, you'll be free to engage with what really matters - whether that be getting productive work done, spending time with friends and family, or simply going for a walk. Once you're ready to reconnect, just tap the device again to unblock everything.
The Brick app allows you to:
- customize the apps you want to leave unblocked while Bricked
- track your usage history to see your improvement as you spend more time undistracted
- contact the creators to give input for feature requests and any necessary improvements / fixes
We believe that privacy is essential - because of this, none of your usage information leaves your phone. See our Privacy Policy for more information: https://zest-legume-e0c.notion.site/Privacy-Policy-ca7b41eaa1c441ae855cdfa69d7eb0cc

Would love some tweaks
This is a great solution! It’s been the best fix for me, especially since my brick is downstairs and my bedroom is upstairs. There are some minor things that I would find helpful. 1) When you unbrick, give an option for a 30-minute “pause” from your scheduled brick. Sometimes I just need one thing for a quick minute but then I forget to brick it back up. Suddenly I’m doom-scrolling 😳 2) After unbricking during the day, the next scheduled brick doesn’t always happen. Is it set to stay unbricked all day? Can’t figure that one out. 3) When I re-brick during a scheduled time, it’d be great if it unbricked automatically based on the schedule. Instead it stays bricked until you unbrick it, or a new scheduled time starts and ends.

Great
Great product but I wish it worked on tablets, they could just put a QR code on the brick for tablets to scan to unbrick. Or they could put the QR code in the app for them to unbrick the device with their unbricked phone.
