Cut down on
pornography use
without a blocker

The first screen time tracker built for adult content, using analytics and notifications to help you cut down over time

Porn blockers set you up for failure

Blockers aren't the right solution for everyone. Going from heavy usage to zero overnight is a tough ask, especially if you haven't built the discipline first.

It also doesn't help that they are incredibly easy to bypass, so relying on them as a digital wall often fails.

If blockers aren't working for you, there is another way

Try Ballast instead...

Ballast is a browser extension that tracks how much time you spend watching adult material, visualises your daily usage, and sends notifications during long sessions.
