Congrats. Its a nice idea
I always wonder how people spend hours on useless apps like Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, etc. They are nothing but trash.

Built this after my wife and I kept getting distracted from German exam prep by endless scrolling. We tried every app blocker, but they all had friction - you'd see "blocked" and then manually have to open your study materials, which often broke our motivation.
The key insight: replace the habit rather than just block it. When you tap Instagram after your 30-minute limit, ZenScript intercepts the launch and opens your focus book instead. No friction, just automatic redirection from scrolling to learning.
