Your screen is stealing your time. Take it back.
TezBlock blocks distracting apps with timers, NFC tags, and QR codes. Start free — no hardware, no account required.
Timers & schedules
Set a focus duration and the session ends automatically. Or automate blocking on a daily schedule. Timer is free — no hardware needed.
Physical blocking
Tap an NFC tag or scan a QR code to lock and unlock your apps. Real friction, not just a toggle.
Stats & Focus Score
Track streaks, weekly focus time, and your Focus Score. Share progress cards with friends.
Focus with friends
See when your friends are focusing and share your weekly hours. Optional — sign in only if you want social features.
Private by default
No account required for core blocking. Everything stays on your device unless you choose to sign in for sync and friends.

Questions
01What do I need to get started?
Just the app. Manual and Timer blocking are free — no hardware, no account, no purchase. If you want physical blocking, grab a cheap NFC sticker (NTAG213) and stick it anywhere.
02What's free and what's Pro?
Manual and Timer blocking are free forever — not a trial. Pro ($24.99/year) unlocks NFC tags, QR codes, scheduled sessions, breaks, Strict Mode, Live Activities, and Siri Shortcuts.
03How is this different from Screen Time?
Screen Time lets you tap "ignore limit." TezBlock uses physical barriers — NFC tags you have to walk to, QR codes in another room, or timers you can't skip. Plus website blocking, Strict Mode, and focus tracking.
04Can I bypass the block in an emergency?
Yes. There's an emergency exit for when you truly need your phone. Strict Mode makes it deliberately harder — that's the point.
05What happens to my data?
Everything stays on your device — no account needed. If you sign in for Friends, only session times and display name are stored. We never see which apps you block. You can delete your account anytime from Settings.
