Field notes
The proposed workflow uses a bodily interruption rather than a countdown: opening a selected app triggers the six-seven gesture, shown by two drawn hands, and ten repetitions precede the unlock decision. The page lists Instagram, TikTok, Threads, and YouTube among possible targets and describes a five-minute unlock before the block returns. It also states that one blocked app will be free, with no account or ads.
