About This Item

BLOCKS APPS AUTOMATICALLY - Halo is a physical device that blocks selected distracting apps (Instagram, TikTok, etc.) and websites when your phone or tablet enters the halo radius. Simply leave the radius to regain access.
STOP SCROLLING IN BED - Place halo in your bedroom, open the ScreenZen app to activate it, choose your distractions, and set your radius. Every time you walk in, the apps you can’t resist at bedtime are blocked without relying on willpower.
NO LOOPHOLES - Strict mode and lock features help make common workarounds harder, while the physical halo radius adds friction to help break the scrolling loop.
NO SUBSCRIPTION - Buy the halo device once and use it with the free ScreenZen app.
SMART FEATURES - Set halo for bedtime, weekends, mornings, or any routine, then adjust the radius from a small nook to a larger room or entire home, up to 50 ft. Includes adult content blocking.
WORKS ANYWHERE - Use halo at your desk or in a shared space to block the apps you reach for when work gets hard. The built-in magnet and included stick-on mount let you place halo anywhere.
UNLIMITED DEVICES & SHARED ACCESS - Pair halo with iPhone, Android phones, and tablets for yourself, your partner, family members, roommates, or shared devices.

Product Description

Product description

Halo automatically blocks the apps you can't resist, until you leave your bedroom.

Just set it and forget it. No taps, no rituals. Walk in and it works.

How halo works

1. Select distracting apps

Or block the entire phone

2. Walk in → Apps blocked

Happens automatically when you're near it

3. To scroll → Leave the room

Physical friction breaks the scrolling loop

Instead of relying on willpower at night, let halo make your bedroom support the change you want. The same goes for mornings. Halo creates space for the habits you actually wanted: reading, journaling, running, stretching, or just starting the day without the feed.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Will this block all my apps, even the ones I need?

A: No. You choose which apps and websites to block and which ones stay open, so essentials like messages, maps, or work tools are always available.

Q: Will my apps be locked out all the time?

A: No. Blocks apply only when you’re inside or outside halo’s radius. You can also add schedules to make it match your daily routine.

Q: Can’t I turn off Bluetooth or get around it?

A: If Bluetooth is disabled within the radius, blocking will continue. There’s also a lock mode that protects against common loopholes. You can prevent uninstalling and make it much harder to bypass limits.
