blockit: Block distractions
blockit is a free iPhone app developed by Jordi Kitto that falls under the category of Business & Productivity. With blockit, users can effectively block distracting elements on popular websites like Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Reddit.
The app takes a unique approach by surgically removing only the distracting parts of a website, such as the Facebook News Feed, while leaving the rest of the site accessible. This means users can still access notifications, events, friends, and messenger services without getting caught up in the time-consuming distractions.
blockit offers several key features to customize the blocking experience. Users can choose to block specific elements of a website according to their preferences. Additionally, the app allows users to block any website based on its URL.
Another notable feature is the iCloud sync, which ensures that all settings and blocked websites are synchronized across iPhone, iPad, and Mac devices. The app also supports Dark Mode, providing a comfortable viewing experience for users.
It's worth mentioning that blockit utilizes Apple Safari Content Blocker technology, which means it can only remove certain parts of websites when accessed through the Safari app. This ensures user privacy, as no information is sent to a server.
If you find yourself being distracted by certain websites and want to regain your focus, give blockit a try and block the elements that hinder your productivity.
