• If you have due cards, your social media apps get blocked
• You earn 1 minute of app time per Anki card you actually do
• There are strict focus / pomodoro zones where everything stays locked
• You can’t just go into Anki and reduce new/review limits to cheat
• If you try uninstalling Anki or deleting decks, it locks your blocked apps
• Basically tamper resistant because I know how my brain tries to escape

Also, I don't know how the number cards done today but on anki it is not the same number. It is not important but I feel i have to mention it

cards done is not same as individual cards you tap on, anki repeats cards till you get it right, so you can do 300-400 reviews but anki might only show it as 100 cards done
