Description
AnkiBlock helps you stay focused by blocking distracting apps until you finish your AnkiDroid study goal.
Choose the apps that pull you away from studying, set your card goal, and AnkiBlock keeps them locked until your AnkiDroid progress says the work is done.
AnkiBlock is built for students, language learners, exam season, and anyone who already uses AnkiDroid but wants a stronger reason to stay consistent.
Study first. Unlock later.
AnkiBlock turns your distracting apps into a reward.
Instead of opening social media, videos, games, or forums before studying, you complete your AnkiDroid cards first. Once your goal is reached, your apps unlock.
Works with AnkiDroid
AnkiBlock requires AnkiDroid.
It does not replace AnkiDroid and does not include its own flashcard system. Instead, it works together with AnkiDroid and uses your real AnkiDroid study progress to decide when your blocked apps unlock.
Block your most distracting apps
Choose the apps you want to block, such as:
short video apps social media video apps games forums messaging apps browsers any other app that distracts you
You stay in control of what gets blocked.
Two ways to unlock
AnkiBlock is strict, but flexible.
Use a smaller goal to unlock one app for a break, or complete your full daily goal to unlock all blocked apps.
Need to quickly check something? You can temporarily unlock a blocked app for 60 seconds, up to 3 times per day.
Built for exam season
When exams are close, distraction gets expensive.
AnkiBlock helps turn your phone into a study-first device. Set your daily AnkiDroid goal, keep distracting apps locked, and make scrolling wait until your revision is done.
Track your study pattern
See how many cards you studied each day and compare this week with last week.
AnkiBlock helps you understand your consistency over time, not just whether you studied today.

100% free ad-free open source built for students, not for profit

Comments on AnkiBlock: Study to Unlock for Android
★★★★☆Trent· Aug 28, 2026
Love this i just wish the app didn't freeze at times if you try to enter a blocked app it will block you but then exit and go back into the blocked app it will show you a default screen saying you need 50 cards to unlock without the 60-second button or the button to jump to anki and when you try to go into the app it either shows a black screen and freezes having to shut it down from the settings or just shows you that it thinks you are studying in the anki app removing the button in the app
★★★★★Robinson Cajas· Jul 25, 2026
Nice app, very useful, but I have a problem, the app does not count the reviews, I have to switch between the app and anki to make the app count the reviews
★★☆☆☆Abdulhakim Seid· Sep 1, 2026
Nice concept and app I am sure it works well in other phone brands but on Xiaomi 14t it repeatedly fails and forces the app to close, it loses track of count of reviews and new cards, it gets stuck and freezes too much.
