Open the evening.

A few hours where the screen is shut and everything else isn't.

What's on the other side

Dinner with nothing glowing on the table. A walk where you notice the light. A conversation that doesn't pause halfway through.

Calls always work. A friend holds the code that ends a block early, so stopping is something you decide together.

Installing it

  1. Download and open the file.
  2. Allow installs from your browser.
  3. Open zipt and follow the short setup screens.

“App blocked to protect your device”? Expected — Play Protect says that about any app from outside the Play Store.

Play Store → your picture → Play Protect → gear → turn scanning off → install → turn it back on.

Accessibility switch greyed out? A second block, and a different one: Android 13 and later refuse this permission to anything installed from a browser.

Settings → Apps → zipt → three dots, top right → Allow restricted settings → back to Accessibility and flip it. The setup screen has a button that takes you there.

Xiaomi, Redmi, POCO, OPPO, vivo, OnePlus, realme? Your phone keeps its own list of apps allowed to run after a restart. If zipt is not on it, restarting the phone quietly stops scheduled blocks.

Security → Permissions → Autostart (Auto-launch, on some phones). Setup asks for this on its own screen — it is not the same switch as the battery one.

Go be somewhere.

The phone will still be here. That has never been the problem.
