About this app

Regain helps students stop scrolling and study. Pick the apps that distract you, start a focus timer, and Regain keeps them locked until you're done.

FOCUS SESSIONS
• Timer, stopwatch or Pomodoro, with breaks you choose
• Blocked apps stay locked for the whole session, even if you swipe Regain away
• Calming nature sounds (rain, waves, birds) and a live timer bubble over your other apps

BLOCK WHAT DISTRACTS YOU
• Lock Instagram, YouTube, games, browsers and any other app
• Focus schedules that turn on by themselves, like "Morning study, 6–9 AM"
• Screen Time on your Home screen: see where your day went

STUDY TOGETHER
• Join focus groups for your exam (JEE, NEET, UPSC, SAT, IELTS…) or make your own
• Weekly leaderboards with Gold, Silver and Bronze leagues
• Send reactions and wake-up nudges to friends who haven't studied yet
• Invite friends and earn free PRO

TRACK YOUR PROGRESS
• Daily goal ring, focus history and achievements from 1 hour to 1000 hours
• Home-screen widgets

REGAIN PRO
• Strict Mode: no way to stop until the timer ends
• Block Shorts and Reels, and YouTube Study Mode (only your study channels play)
• Website blocking, adult-site blocking and Browser Study Mode
• Block the home screen and notifications during focus
• Uninstall Protection, unlimited schedules, Pomodoro and the full week and month view
PRO is a monthly or yearly subscription (or lifetime), billed through Google Play. You see the exact price before you buy, and you can cancel anytime in Google Play.

PRIVACY
Regain uses Android's Accessibility service to lock the apps you choose and, if you turn them on, to spot Shorts, Reels and websites on screen. That screen content is checked on your phone and never stored or sent anywhere. Details: https://regain-legal.vercel.app/privacy

Available in English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Bahasa Indonesia, Italiano, 한국어, Polski, Português and தமிழ்.
Block reels, shorts & distracting apps. Study with focus timers & groups.

What's new

Regain 2.0 is a complete rebuild: focus groups with weekly leaderboards, Strict Mode, Shorts/Reels blocking, YouTube Study Mode, schedules, widgets, Screen Time and one-tap Google sign-in. More reliable blocking: changing the date can't end a session and break sounds are on time.
