For Android folks, my friend built an app to limit / restrict the apps and websites your phone has access to. It's essentially like workplace fleet management, but for yourself.

I have a little more personal self control, but found his technical implementation pretty neat!

It not being able to uninstalled is a catch 22. I understand why it is uninstallable to prevent people from breaking, uninstalling it and getting around it but I also don't trust the app and it being uninstallable sounds like a risk.

Limit Phone Dev here!

Yea I get it, I have similar feelings about installing such a privileged app on my phone.

You can remove the app (with a delay, so it doesn't defeat the controls!).

I'll make this a bit clearer on the site.
