Automation
To start detox automatically from Tasker or similar:
- broadcast
- package: com.urbandroid.ddc
- action: com.urbandroid.ddc.START_DETOX
- time_extra: number of millies

Example:
adb shell am broadcast --el time_extra 60000 -a com.urbandroid.ddc.START_DETOX

Accessibility Service
To effectively block you from using the addictive and distracting apps the "Digital Detox" app may ask you to enable its Accessibility Service if you decide to use the cheating protection features.
We only use this service to block you from leaving an ongoing Detox without paying an accountability fee or using a quit code (the cheating). We do not use the service to collect any personal information.
See how the use of Accessibility Service works in Digital Detox: https://youtu.be/XuJeqvyEAYw

Device Admin
If granted by the user, the "Digital Detox" app may use the Device Administrator permission to (and only to) prevent users from cheating - make uninstalling of the app during an active Detox harder.

This is my favorite tech limiting app and I've tried a lot of them! It's got every feature I need, a super simple interface, and the devs always reply to emails if there's any issues. I don't just use this for a full detox, but it's also my app for scheduling focus times. You can set several different options like "work" and "family time" (you can edit the labels), and then use these for separate automatic schedules that block what you don't need for that time of the day. Perfect app, thank you!

This is the best app. I used to spend 8 hours a day on YouTube trying to avoid my problems. I felt like I had so many problems and I didn't have any time to take care of them. Using this app in conjunction with set work hours and classes has taken my time back. I set it so that YouTube and my other brain rot apps get locked away until 6pm the next day, or just anything 12 hours after wakeup. Highly recommend.

It really does it's job. In the settings you have the option for "no cheating" which basically makes it impossible to go around the timed lock/detox unless you pay. I've had this app for months and "detox" while I work from home to avoid scrolling endlessly on apps. im able to select a few apps I need (phone, messages, work related apps). It has really helped me focus on work!
