Protect the first two hours of work
Start the workday on your own task before opening the feeds.
Before you start
Open Tysh on your iPhone and grant Screen Time access when prompted.
Choose an App List in Blocks → Active → App Lists, or create one from the block editor. Free includes one list you can reuse. Additional lists require Premium.
Let’s set it up.
Choose your distractions
Create or select your distracting-app list, leaving work tools out.
Create a Time Block
Open Blocks → + → Time Block, name it Morning work, and select that list.
Set your work window
Choose Easy, select Monday–Friday, turn All Day off, and set 09:00–11:00.
Create your boundary
Tap Create and check the saved schedule in Blocks.
What happens next
The selected apps are blocked during those weekday mornings. Other apps remain available unless another protection covers them.
If your plans change
Easy allows Pause through a challenge or End for Today. Unlimited Easy pauses are Premium. This is the flexible starting recipe.
Another active protection can still keep the same app blocked. After setup, check that your boundary saved and enabled successfully.
