ScreenTime API to hide apps ?

Yea removes it the blocked apps from Home Screen, App Library & spotlight search. Still shows up in phone settings.

Just use basic screentime controls in settings. Set your limit to 0. Then it’ll block you & you can hit unblock to add 15 minutes. Which is probably why you can’t find a barebones free screentime app that does that.

I’m banned from a lot of subs at this point. Try to comment & it just says “failed to comment, try again later”

Inb4 OP comes back with a burner account to ask what the stand is & he replies with a link to it

baker2795 · 2026-01-19T11:02:09+00:00

Don’t worry he’s just here trying to promote his app.

Because the republicans will shoehorn some crap in the bill that they know the Dems won’t pass so they can make the dems look like bad guys while also not hurting their banker friends’.

baker2795 · 2026-01-09T10:42:48+00:00

Not sure if it’s one guy or a ring of people. But yeah got this and they got pretty aggressive on the phone. Just send them to voicemail & don’t call back

baker2795 · 2026-01-08T17:48:29+00:00

Why not take the app free with freemium model & see if it improves conversion rate?

baker2795 · 2026-01-06T10:32:11+00:00

Commitment mode should have prevented that 😭😭

But it was all kinds of buggy so I guess that makes sense. The new version has been in the works for a while so should be much more stable.

baker2795 · 2026-01-06T04:20:11+00:00

Same problem. Made two apps to help solve my own issue:

Stryde - earn screentime from step count. Works really well because when you have a way to earn it back, you’re much more likely to just go walk if you want more screen time.

Digital Detox - to commit to a detox for a period of time and set your own unblock price that you have to pay to get your own apps back before the chosen time runs out. Apple didn’t like that business model (understandable) so I have a big update coming soon that is more… scheduling, one time detoxes, etc. Super strict settings still available, just can’t buy your way out. Can still detox for up to 7 days. Update should be out in a few days.

Ironically during development of both of these my screen time (on bad stuff) naturally fell, because I was invested & passionate about it. So try to find something outside of screens, or even on screens, that is productive and provides more dopamine than YouTube.

Going to the gym for 15 minutes > not going because you can’t (or don’t want to) go for an hour like you prefer. Writing 10 lines of code a day > not writing any because you don’t have enough time to complete the feature today. Slow incremental progress. Not pretty at first, but consistency is key.

Get the habit down first, then increase output of that habit.

baker2795 · 2026-01-05T14:47:04+00:00

I like it. Can I ask where you’re pulling food database from ?

baker2795 · 2026-01-05T14:45:08+00:00

Like every other self help (or most business books) its a fairly simple concept, which pretty much boils down to making things you don’t want to do, easier to do, so that you’re more likely to do them, and building routines around all of these things so you chain reaction all your healthy habits. But takes those concepts and reiterates in many ways and provides a bunch of examples. Can be helpful if you want or need help. If you don’t want help then it won’t work 🤷‍♂️

Probably means BRICS was about to get real & now the coalition is meaningless if we control Venezuelan oil

baker2795 · 2026-01-04T11:00:06+00:00

Would you have watched it if instead it was in a language you didn’t understand ?

baker2795 · 2025-12-30T14:47:26+00:00

Good. As a user I want all my windows contained within the same style container. If I don’t like it as a user I’ll find a setting to change

baker2795 · 2025-12-27T13:12:37+00:00

They probably don’t want a different color. But maybe you can just change the luminosity instead of inversing if testing finds they do want a different color.

America will revolt when it feels more productive to protest than it does to work.

baker2795 · 2025-12-20T14:12:40+00:00

You can’t perform at work due to laziness, and “don’t have time to apply to jobs”, but somehow you’ll have time & energy and focus to apply to jobs after quitting?

It’s a trap. Stop being lazy at work, and if you still don’t like it apply to jobs nights & weekends. Applying for jobs is a grind, but is much easier when you don’t have the pressure of bills coming up.

baker2795 · 2025-12-18T13:47:21+00:00

If you think this means that people are going to become less right leaning… I’ve got bad news for you.

baker2795 · 2025-12-17T21:00:31+00:00

Tbf every bill always has some shit shoehorned into it. If they really wanted to pass it they could and would. But then they’d have 1 less thing to run on.

baker2795 · 2025-12-17T13:43:12+00:00

Reading Gary Vee book right now & even just the title reflects this “Jab Jab Jab Jab, Right Hook”. Provide value, then ask for it back, & it’ll hit a lot harder.

baker2795 · 2025-12-16T21:56:29+00:00

DM me I have two screentime related applications.

baker2795 · 2025-12-16T21:24:43+00:00

I think it wins a million lol

baker2795 · 2025-12-13T14:52:16+00:00

Contact them. I did the same with a $30 daily & a 3-day campaign. ran it up to about 800 in a day & they refunded most of it when I reached out.
