Bloka

Bloka is an app and website blocker designed to help users combat procrastination and improve productivity by eliminating digital distractions. It uniquely merges physical and digital actions to initiate focus sessions, making the commitment to concentrate more tangible and effective. Users can select specific apps and websites (like social media, games, or news) that they find distracting. The app offers two innovative methods to start a focus session: either by tapping an iPhone to a physical BLOKA NFC tag or by using AI-powered camera detection to scan an everyday object (like a laptop or a book). Once a session begins, all selected distracting apps are blocked, and attempts to open them display a reminder of the user's goal. To unblock, users simply tap the tag or scan the same object again. This system is built to foster better habits and provide a stronger psychological barrier against temptations, making it ideal for students, professionals, or anyone looking to enhance their digital well-being and focus.
