Block what distracts you

Create custom blocking profiles for different parts of your life. Pick exactly which apps and websites to block — or flip to allow mode to only permit what you need.

  • Block individual apps or entire categories
  • Block specific websites and domains
  • Multiple profiles for different contexts — Deep Work, Study Mode, Family Time
  • Switch profiles without ending your session

Blocking that can’t be dismissed

When you try to open a blocked app, Cura shows a shield — not a suggestion. There is no "ignore for 15 minutes" button. To end your session, you have to physically return to your Cura Station or Block and tap again.

  • Uses Apple’s parental controls system — the same one families trust
  • No override button on your phone
  • Blocking stays active even when the app is closed
  • Physical tap required to end your session

Sessions your way

Start an open-ended stopwatch session when you want to focus without pressure, or set a timer for structured deep work. Either way, your session is visible at a glance — on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island.

  • Stopwatch mode — focus as long as you need, no timer pressure
  • Timer mode — structured sessions with countdown
  • Live status on your Lock Screen and Dynamic Island
  • Full session history with details and trends
Weekly schedule setup in Cura

Automate your focus

Set weekly schedules that activate your blocking profiles automatically. Monday-to-Friday study blocks, weekend creative time, or any custom routine. Cura handles the rest.

  • Weekly schedules with day and time selection
  • Blocking profiles activate and end automatically
  • Daily focus goals with progress tracking
  • Monday morning, your phone locks down — you don’t have to decide
