Moat blocks the apps and websites that pull you away, and makes it deliberately hard to quit early.

Free with one block. Try Moat Elite free for 7 days. Also for Mac and Windows.

What Moat does

Block what distracts you

Pick apps, websites or whole categories and block them during a focus session, on a fixed schedule or after a daily limit.

A running focus session in Moat: 39:22 remaining, 4 apps blocked until 17:07, and strict mode on.

Focus sessions

Start a session in one tap, from the app or a widget. Your chosen apps stay closed until the timer ends.

The Strict mode screen in Moat: strict mode is on, and you choose how you can stop: timer, schedule, cooldown or code.

Strict mode

A timer that can't be stopped, a cooldown you wait out, or an unlock code. You set it yourself.

iPhone

Phone-free

Your whole phone closed at set times, at night for example, except the apps you keep open. Calls always work.

Active blocks in Moat: a quick block that is blocking now, a morning and an evening schedule, and daily limits for YouTube and Instagram.

Schedules and daily limits

Block social media every weekday from 9 to 17, or allow 30 minutes a day. Moat switches on by itself, even when the app is closed.
