one sec | app blocker, focus (PRO) 2.0.12 Apk for Android

The description of one sec | screen time & focus

One Sec forces you to take a deep breath whenever you open distracting apps. It’s as simple as it is effective: by becoming aware of your social media usage, you will naturally reduce it. One Sec is the focus app that addresses the problem of unconscious social media use at its core, designed to change your habits for the long term.

One Sec works remarkably well because it is fully automated, compelling you to reflect on your actions as they occur.

Short-term and Long-term Effects

With One Sec, you will notice both short-term and long-term effects on your social media usage:

1. Unconscious phone habits are disrupted immediately (“Why did I even want to open that app?”).


2. Long-term habits change as these apps become less appealing to your brain, diminishing their “dopamine on demand” effect.

Availability

One Sec is also available for your desktop web browser: Browser Extension Installation.

We have made One Sec free to use with one app! If you wish to use One Sec with multiple apps, please consider upgrading to One Sec Pro. This upgrade will grant you access to numerous additional features and customization options.

Research Validation

This effect has been confirmed in a study conducted with the University of Heidelberg and the Max Planck Institute, where we observed a 57% reduction in social media usage attributed to One Sec. Read our peer-reviewed paper: PNAS Paper.
