This is a clever concept. One thing I'd love to see is a way to schedule study blocks in advance so it only kicks in during exam prep windows, not when I'm just trying to relax with some X scrolling on a Saturday morning. Would make it feel less punishing and more intentional.
@carriefisher No scrolling or relaxing saturday morning, you've got the SIE to study for!!
Love the concept of swapping feeds for practice questions. One thing that would make it stick for me: a quick daily counter showing how many questions you actually answered instead of just time blocked. Seeing "you nailed 14 questions today instead of scrolling" hits way harder than just knowing the app was running. Would keep motivation up on days when discipline is low.
This is a really clever twist on a site blocker, love the idea of replacing mindless scrolling with actual practice. One thing I'd suggest is adding a whitelist for short breaks so you can quickly check a message or link without it unlocking the whole feed. Right now it sounds like any allowed site defeats the purpose, but a 30 second timed bypass would make it feel less rigid when you just need to grab something quick.
The pivot from distraction to practice questions is such a clever hook, and the fact that you can plug in your own sites makes it actually stick instead of feeling like another flimsy blocker.
