App and website blocker for Android
The app blocker you can't just delete.
You pick the apps and websites. Unblocking anything takes 48 hours.
Start 30-day challengeSee how it works ↓
Free, no card needed. Setup takes a computer and a USB cable.
Blocking is instant. Unblocking waits.
Anything that tightens takes effect at once. Anything that loosens waits, so a late-night impulse can't undo it.
-
Gone at once.
Pick the apps and websites. Apps are hidden right away, and their data stays on your phone. Websites stop opening.
-
Back in 48 hours, not tonight.
Want something back? Tap Unblock. It returns two days later.
-
One more chance to say no.
Before it comes back, your phone reminds you, with a Keep it blocked button.
Zero loopholes. Zero midnight escapes.
We built Finite Phone because normal blockers are too easy to bypass when your willpower drops.

Your first day has a grace period. A factory reset always removes Finite Phone, and erases the phone. How removal works
Some apps can never be blocked.
Finite Phone won't let you block these. Nothing is blocked until you choose it.
- Phone calls
- Text messages
- Maps
- Banking
- Tap-to-pay
- Camera and clock
- Calendar
- Health apps
- Password managers
There's no emergency pass or code, so don't block an app you'd need in an emergency.
Not ready to block it? Slow it down.
For the apps you still need, add a little friction.
-
Lock on a schedule
Lock apps at the same times each week, like 10 PM to 7 AM. A lock never ends early. Taking hours away or deleting the schedule takes 48 hours.
-
Daily limits
Set minutes or opens a day. When they're used up, the app locks until 4 AM. There's no snooze, and raising or removing a limit takes 48 hours.
-
Second Thought
A 10-to-60-second pause before an app opens.
-
In gray
Drain the color out of an app to make it less appealing.
Not from an app store
Set it up once, from your computer.
Finite Phone installs from our website with your phone on a cable. That's the reason it can't be bypassed later.
-
Open it on a computer.
Go to finitephone.com/install in Chrome or Edge, on Windows, Mac or a Chromebook.
-
Plug in your phone.
Use a cable that carries data. You sign out of every account on the phone for setup, Google included, and sign back in after.
-
Pick what to block.
Review your list, and Finite Phone sets itself up.
About 10 to 15 minutes. Setup never wipes the phone. Back up your phone first, because passkeys and authenticator codes that aren't synced may not come back.

No card to start. If you don't add one, Finite Phone comes off your phone after 30 days and you're never charged. $29 a year if you keep it.

Questions
Or explore it with your favorite assistant.
Copy this question, then open Gemini and paste it into a new chat.
Which phones does it work on?
Android phones: a Pixel 6 or newer, or a Samsung Galaxy phone, on Android 14 or newer. It doesn't work on iPhones, work phones or phones with a work profile. We're adding Motorola phones next.
How much does it cost?
$29 a year, plus any tax where you live, after a free 30-day challenge.
How does the 30-day challenge work?
You get 30 days of Finite Phone free, with every feature. You don't need a card.
If you don't add a card, Finite Phone comes off your phone 30 days after setup, and every app it hid comes back with its data.
To keep it, add a card on your account page before then. We email you a reminder at least 7 days before the end. We charge $29 when the challenge ends, then once a year until you cancel. You can get a full refund within 14 days of the first charge.
The challenge is once per customer. Our Terms call it the free trial.
How do I install Finite Phone?
Go to finitephone.com/install on a computer, in Chrome or Edge, and plug in your phone with a USB cable that carries data.
Because Finite Phone secures itself at the system level, Android requires you to temporarily sign out of every account on the phone, Google included, during setup. Setup never wipes the phone. Once it's installed (about 10 to 15 minutes), you sign right back in. Back up your phone first, because passkeys and authenticator codes that aren't synced may not come back. Every step of the install
Is there a grace period?
We give you a 24-hour grace period. During your first day, you can remove Finite Phone from your account page if you change your mind. It usually comes off within 15 minutes, or right away if you open the Finite Phone app. After 24 hours, removing it takes 48 hours. Unblocking an app or website takes 48 hours from the start.
How can I uninstall it?
There's no off switch on the phone. You remove Finite Phone on your account page. It comes off the phone 48 hours later. You can change your mind any time before then. A factory reset also removes it right away, and erases everything on the phone. In your first 24 hours, there's a grace period.
Cancelling your subscription is separate. It stops the renewal. If you add a card and then cancel, Finite Phone comes off the phone 48 hours after your challenge or paid year ends.
What keeps the blocks in place?
Setup makes Finite Phone your phone's "device owner," the Android role used for managing work phones. This is the secret to why you can't bypass the blocks. It allows Finite Phone to hide the apps you block, keep them closed during a lock, and block websites. Most importantly, Android will not let you uninstall Finite Phone while it manages the phone.
Because of this, your lock screen will say the phone belongs to Finite Phone, and Android will show a standard warning that an admin may be able to see your data. The Finite Phone app doesn't send us your location, contacts, messages, call logs, photos, browsing history, or a record of which apps you use or for how long. Everything we do receive is listed in our Privacy Policy.
Block it tonight. It's still blocked in the morning.
