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

Not every distraction at work is the same problem, and social media is often the one that's actually narrow. If Slack, email, and your calendar are fine and it's specifically Instagram or TikTok pulling you away, blocking your whole phone is more than the problem calls for. Fella lets you select just the social apps and set the hours, nothing else changes.
Selection in Fella is per app. Choose the social apps that actually pull you away—most commonly Instagram, TikTok, X, or Reddit—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 full workday block makes sense when the pull is general. Our block apps during work page covers that case, blocking social feeds, games, news, and shopping together for anyone whose distraction isn't confined to one category.
This page is for the narrower case. If social media specifically is the habit and everything else on your phone is fine, blocking just that category keeps the setup simple and leaves the rest of your phone exactly as useful as it was.
A work-hours block should never cut off something genuinely urgent. Each session includes one 5-minute emergency unlock, enough to check a message that actually can't wait, and the selected apps lock again automatically once the five minutes end.
A work-hours routine only covers the hours you set. For blocking the same apps all day, every day, see our social media blocker for iPhone page, or build a weekly schedule if the hours differ by day.
Everything you need to stay focused, right from Home.
Yes. Selection in Fella is per app, so a routine can block Instagram, TikTok, and similar apps 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 apps you select and which hours you set.
Each session includes one 5-minute emergency unlock. Use it if something real comes up, and the selected apps lock again automatically once the five minutes end.
It is narrower by design. Blocking every distracting app during work covers social media, games, news, and shopping together. This page covers just the social apps, for people who only struggle with that specific category.
