Squelch

Squelch your digital addiction

Squelch can help you conquer your digital device addiction and live with less distraction.

Why Squelch?

Tired of mindlessly checking your phone every time you get a notification?
Tired of scrolling aimlessly through your social media feeds for hours on end?
Tired of looking up at the clock only to realize you spent the last several hours gaming?
Tried apps to help manage your digital addiction, and found them wanting?

If so, Squelch is for you! Here’s how it works:

You pick the apps you’d like to block. You can choose from every non-system app on your device.
You set a date and time range where you don’t want to access these apps (what we call a "blackout")
You specify a dollar amount between $1 - $400 (your "bid"). If you make it through your blackout without breaking down and disabling Squelch, you don’t pay a thing. However, if you fail, you will lose your bid.
Don’t want to bid money against yourself? Try our "Novice" mode, which allows you to bid nothing.

Benefits

True freedom

Squelch is designed to help you accomplish your goals and keeps the apps you want blocked, blocked. You will not find the loopholes found in other apps, such as slow response times, multi-window mode, restarts, and uninstallations, in Squelch.

Full Control

Squelch puts you in control and allows you to designate exactly when your blackouts start and end, what apps you want to block, and how much you wish to bid against yourself. This gives you ultimate control over how Squelch works for you.

It's Free

No annoying ads, no cost to purchase - Squelch is free to download and use. We only get paid if you choose to unlock during a blackout or leave us a tip.

Community Driven

We think it's important to hear what the community wants and needs. Squelch has an integrated feedback submission form built right into the app that goes directly to the development team so your thoughts, comments, and concerns get right to the source.
