A Fella routine blocks Reddit for the hours you work, automatically, every workday. Email, calendar, and everything else on your phone stays exactly as it is.

Reddit is an unusual kind of work distraction: it rarely feels like scrolling, it feels like reading, right up until an hour is gone. If Slack, email, and your other tools are fine and it's specifically Reddit pulling you into a thread between tasks, blocking your whole phone is more than the problem calls for. Fella lets you select just Reddit and set the hours, nothing else changes.
Selection in Fella is per app. Choose Reddit on its own and leave everything else, including messaging apps you rely on for work, completely untouched.
Set a routine for your working hours and it runs on its own. Weekdays nine to five, or whatever your actual schedule is, starts and ends the block automatically without a manual toggle each morning.
A thread doesn't announce itself as a distraction the way a game or a feed does. It reads like research, or like taking a short break to think, which makes it easy to justify one more comment chain during work hours. A default block removes that justification entirely rather than relying on catching yourself mid-scroll.
A work-hours block should never cut off something genuinely necessary. Each session includes one 5-minute emergency unlock, enough to check a specific thread or reply that actually can't wait, and Reddit locks again automatically once the five minutes end.
If other apps are part of the same problem, not just Reddit, see our broader block social media during work hours page, or block apps during work for every category of distraction together. For blocking Reddit outside work hours too, see how to block Reddit on iPhone.
Everything you need to stay focused, right from Home.
Yes. Selection in Fella is per app, so a routine can block Reddit specifically while leaving email, calendar, and work tools completely untouched.
Yes, with a routine. Set it to the weekdays and hours you work, and it starts the block on its own each of those days without needing to be turned on.
No. This uses the same routine and session mechanism as any other Fella block. The only difference is which app you select and which hours you set.
Each session includes one 5-minute emergency unlock. Use it if something real comes up, and Reddit locks again automatically once the five minutes end.
If Reddit specifically is the app that eats time and everything else is fine, blocking just that one keeps the setup simple and leaves the rest of your phone exactly as useful as it was.
