Blloc's mission is to redefine humanity’s relationship with smartphones by providing a home screen app that turns mindless distraction into mindful productivity.
Smartphones have changed the way that we interact with the world, providing endless opportunities for productivity tools, augmented social interaction, and other life-improving applications. However, they have also complicated our lives in many ways, leaving us with more distractions and notifications than our brains can handle, often causing more harm than good.
Blloc develops a smartphone application for Android called Ratio that transforms users' home screens into a simplified and minimal setup with productivity in mind. Instead of using applications, the software makes use of modular widgets that users can access within a single environment, exclusively including those that encourage distraction-free productivity.
Many developers have released free Android applications that block social media notifications or prevent app distractions, and this will present significant challenges for Blloc. However, whilst the home screen application is expensive in comparison to its competition, it is undeniable that the simplicity, integration, and ease-of-use is of much higher quality, showing potential to provide a more permanent solution that users will stick to.
