Limit your Facebook usage on iPhone
Set limits on Facebook before it sets limits on you.

Feeds engineered for outrage
News feed surfaces high-emotion content to maximise engagement. Limiting time breaks the cycle before outrage accumulates into hours.
Life milestones trigger passive FOMO
Weddings, promotions, and new homes set an impossible baseline. Capping daily exposure reduces the pressure that builds invisibly.
Notification pull never stops
Friend requests, tags, Memories, and Marketplace pings trigger micro-reopens all day. A time limit cuts the loop at the source.
How it works
Set your limit
Choose apps to block. Pick a daily time limit or lock specific hours — mornings, bedtime, whenever you drift.
Apps get blocked
Hit the limit and they lock. Built on Apple Screen Time — system-level, no workarounds.
Earn your 5 minutes
Before a blocked app opens, choose your reason and hold through a breathing pause. Five minutes of access. Then the block returns.
FAQ
Can I limit Facebook to certain hours only?
Yes. Restricted Hours lets you lock Facebook during specific windows — mornings, bedtime, or whenever you drift — while leaving it open the rest of the day. You can create up to 3 schedules, each with a start time, end time, and active days. Schedules can cross midnight.
Apple Screen Time limits apps silently. Kaizen Focus adds an intentional override flow — when you tap a blocked app, you must select a reason and hold a button for 5 seconds through a breathing animation before getting 5 minutes of access. Adaptive limits also tighten automatically as your habits improve.
Adaptive mode tracks your usage over time. When you consistently stay under your current limit, Kaizen Focus suggests lowering it — for example from 60 to 55 minutes. You can accept or dismiss. This gradually reduces your screen time without manual effort.
You go through a 3-step flow: select a reason (like "Quick check" or "Work-related"), hold a button for 5 seconds while a breathing animation plays, then get 5 minutes of access. After 5 minutes the block automatically reactivates.
Any app on your iPhone — Instagram, TikTok, Twitter/X, Reddit, YouTube, and others. Kaizen Focus uses Apple's Screen Time API for system-level enforcement. There are no workarounds.
