Lock Me Out

What it is
Lock Me Out is an Android app for reducing screen time through rules that block or allow apps and websites. Rules can block selected apps, allow selected apps, or restrict the device to its lock screen. Website controls use URLs or URL keywords. Automatic lockouts can start after time in chosen apps, total screen time, app opens, or device unlocks. Schedules repeat on selected days and times or run once during specified dates and times. The app includes usage statistics, warnings, emergency access, Do Not Disturb, and ringer silencing during lockouts. Premium removes the lockout-count limit and adds location-based blocking, hidden blocked-app notifications, and uninstall or tampering protection. A free plan is available; monthly, yearly, and one-time premium options list no prices. It is distributed through Google Play and an Android APK. Usage records remain local when monitoring is enabled, while enabled website or tampering detection may read screen text.
