Start with the moment you want to fix
Get specific. Is it the app-open reflex, a study-session escape hatch, a before-bed scroll, or something broader? A useful blocker meets you at that exact point, not just in a weekly report.
When Swing makes sense
Swing fits if you want a playful stop at the first tap and a simple choice to leave or intentionally unblock the app.
What Swing is—and is not
Swing is a funny iPhone app blocker. You choose the apps to protect, then Swing puts a playful interruption between you and the app opening. It does not promise to block only one feature inside another app, replace every boundary style, or make the choice for you.
What to verify before switching
Check Unrot’s current App Store listing for the latest product details before deciding. Different tools are built for different kinds of boundaries.

Run a tiny honest test
Pick one app that repeatedly turns a quick check into a missing hour. Try one boundary for a few days. If it helps you notice the tap without making your life absurd, keep it. If it does not, change the setup—not your whole personality.

Where can I see how Swing works?
