I rebuilt StrictBlock (my app) from the ground up.
StrictBlock is an iPhone app blocker and focus app designed to help people stop procrastinating, protect deep work, and build better focus habits.
For this relaunch, I did not want to just “refresh the UI.” I wanted to redesign the full product experience around one question:
How can I make starting a focus session feel simple, strict, and useful?
The new version focuses on reducing friction. Users can create focus profiles for study, work, sleep, deep work, or Pomodoro sessions, then start blocking distracting apps and websites with less setup.
I also redesigned the app around accountability. StrictBlock now includes streaks, trophies, weekly reports, widgets, session journaling, and consequences for ending sessions early.
As a developer, this redesign was a good reminder that productivity apps are not only about features. They are about behavior. The UI, the flow, the defaults, and the friction all shape whether someone actually stays focused.
StrictBlock is now live with a complete redesign.
Would love feedback from other builders, iOS devs, and product engineers.
