unstim, the homescreen that refuses to entertain you
An iPhone homescreen replacement that removes icons, badges, colour, and counters, then puts a ten-second pause in front of blocked apps.
Field notes
The product’s dock camouflage depends on matching iOS’s stated #242424 background value, with the widget and wallpaper designed to make the dock edge disappear. Its blocking mechanism measures actual time spent inside an app rather than time passing while the phone sits idle, and the demonstration explicitly removes the skip option. The page says direct launches remain available in the free version, while the broader product is described as a one-time purchase with no subscription.
