I’ve had the Brick for several months now, and I can honestly say that it’s been a game changer for my productivity and my mental health. I love that I can schedule time away from my phone throughout the day (like during work hours or right before bed), then tap to get back in later when I want to check up on social media. The best part? There’s no subscription fee, so you won’t have to pay monthly to improve your weekly screen time report.

How does the Brick work?

The Brick is a physical, 2-inch square magnetic block that essentially hijacks your phone and locks you out of certain apps while activated. You can customize which apps or websites you want to block, or even select certain categories such as social or shopping apps to keep yourself from getting sucked in. Once you’ve made your selects, simply tap your phone to the Brick device to activate—and when you’re ready to unlock those blocked apps, just tap it again.

Senior shopping editor Samantha Jones also loves that you can schedule your Brick to activate at certain times throughout the week without the need to tap your device every time. (Hers is set from 9:30pm to 9am every day to keep her from starting or ending the day with too much scrolling.) And in the event that you need to use a restricted app when you’re away from home, the app offers 5 emergency un-bricks that’ll let you back in.

Is the Brick effective?

According to our editors, yes. Instead of getting caught up on my For You page, I’m crossing off chores and tasks that I normally procrastinate; dishes are clean, laundry is folded and put away, and I can finally squeeze in that at-home workout. I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my mental health and attention span, too.

“Within a week of getting the Brick, I could feel my old phone habits slipping away,” says shopping editor Jessica Dukes. “I still mindlessly reach for it, but when I see that my games and social media are locked, it's so easy to just put the phone down and do something productive. I finished two extra books that week!"

So, it’s up to you. Keep doom-scrolling your summer away…or don’t, by scoring a Brick while it’s 25% off this Prime Day.
