Do Not Disturb
Silences the buzz. The apps are still one tap away.
Less screen time · Hours back
Ten minutes on your phone turns into two hours. Dorf Mode blocks the apps you keep opening on autopilot — so you can stop.

to block the apps that keep pulling you back in.
The problem
Do Not Disturb stops your notifications. It does nothing about the apps you open without thinking.
Silences the buzz. The apps are still one tap away.
Locks the apps themselves. The autopilot tap goes nowhere.
How it works
Relaxing, sleeping, studying, working, or just cutting back — set a timer for however long you need.
Pick the apps that eat your time. They stay locked for the whole session.
That's it. No dashboards to check. No streaks to keep. The screen goes quiet.
Two modes
Need out early? You can — but only with a deliberate press and hold. Long enough to ask yourself if you really mean it.
Try it — press and hold
Apps stay blocked until the timer ends. No "just this once." No way around it. You committed when you started.
Plus a few ambient sounds — minimal, optional, for when you want quiet while your apps stay blocked.
