![]() ![]() ![]() SelfControl would automatically close apps and block websites when I was focused on writing my college dissertation.īut Tigasâ app is tailored for the modern age, where you have multiple devices with the same account. Having tried Ochi over the last few weeks, Iâm reminded of an app I used to use called SelfControl, which was available on my old MacBook Air 2013 machine. While Apple has its own features to assist with distractions - such as Do Not Disturb and the relatively new Focus feature in iOS 15, which can hide apps and change your home screen - Tigas wanted to create something that goes further. Itâs easy to be distracted when youâre using your smartphone, tablet, or computer. Ochi lets you pick and choose the apps and web pages you need to be silenced while you focus. You can block out certain social media accounts, for example, preventing you from accessing specific apps or associated webpages via web browsers. ![]() This new app allows you to create filters for different apps and websites, so you donât become distracted when youâre trying to finish important work. You can avoid any subscription fee by purchasing the Pro version outright for the one-time price of $49.99 / £44.99 / AU$53.99. You can also opt for the Pro version by paying a monthly subscription of $3.99 / £3.49 / AU$4.99, or a yearly one for $19.99 / £17.99 / AU$21.99. Another app wants to help you stay focused by removing distractions across all of your Apple devices.Ĭreated by Michael Tigas, Ochi was released as a free download on February 1 in the App Store. For example, do you sometimes send reminders to yourself by text message? A new note-taking app with a chat interface will make that habit a little bit more convenient. Only a few weeks into 2022 and weâre seeing plenty of new apps promising to solve your various problems in novel ways. ![]()
