Select the games that turn homework into something else, build a routine for the hours you usually work, and only those games lock. Notes, messaging, and study apps keep working normally.

A round in a mobile game doesn't have a natural stopping point the way finishing a math problem does, and homework at home has fewer built-in interruptions than a classroom to catch it. If it's specifically the games, not the whole phone, that turn a twenty-minute assignment into an hour, blocking everything is more than the problem calls for. Fella lets you select just those apps and leave the rest of your phone alone.
Selection in Fella is per app. Choose the specific games that pull you away from homework and leave messaging, notes, and any study apps you rely on completely untouched.
Build a routine for the hours you usually do homework, weeknights only if that's when it happens, and it starts the block itself once the time comes. A one-off manual session works the same way for a night that doesn't match the usual schedule.
Most mobile games run on a session loop—a match, a level, a round—that doesn't line up with when homework actually needs your attention. "One quick round" between problems is exactly how the loop takes over the rest of the evening.
Each session includes one 5-minute emergency unlock, for the rare case a friend genuinely needs a reply mid-session. When the five minutes end, the games lock again automatically for the rest of the session.
If social media or general phone use is also part of homework distraction, not just games, see our broader block apps during homework page. For the study-anywhere case, not just homework at home, see block games during study time.
Everything you need to stay focused, right from Home.
