20,000 of you. we genuinely didn’t expect that.

we built breakfree because we kept opening instagram to check on people we love and closing it 40 minutes later having seen none of them. it just removes reels. that’s the whole product. we thought a few hundred people might want it, but here we are with over 50,000.

so, thank you, and here’s 60 lifetime pro licenses to prove we mean it. free forever.

follow, like, tag 1-2 friends (they win too), share to story for a bonus entry. winners will be announced on August 20th.

but why?

breakfree blocks apps and save IG messages so you don’t have to “break” everytime you text someone and fall back into scrolling.

The “Nihilist Penguin” is a popular name given to a scene from Werner Herzog’s 2007 documentary Encounters at the End of the World, where a lone Adélie penguin leaves its colony in Antarctica and walks inland toward the mountains instead of the ocean, a direction that almost certainly leads to death.

Herzog first asks a penguin expert whether penguins ever go mad, and the expert explains that such individuals sometimes become disoriented and cannot be guided back, even if returned to the group. Herzog’s narration frames the moment in a poetic, existential way, suggesting a purposeless journey away from instinct and survival.

The term itself was coined later by internet culture, not by Herzog, and sparked debate, with some viewers reading the act as nihilism or existential rebellion.

breakfree will always stay free.

block apps, keep messages.

our mission is to help you stay connected without losing focus.

but over the past few months, many of you asked if there could be a paid option without ads.

so we built one.

introducing breakfree pro.

it’s the same breakfree you know, just with a few extra perks for those who want them:

• no ads • brain games and breathing exercise: in replacement of watching ads to skip a session. • hard block: wait 10 minutes to skip/no skip. • stealth mode: read messages without sending a seen receipt.

breakfree stays free for everyone.
 breakfree pro is just an optional upgrade if you want a little more. by @breakfree.app

Block apps + connect to instagram messages. Stay focused without missing out.

If you want to stay ahead, you have to do what others don’t.

In a world built to steal your attention, focus becomes an advantage.

An average adult spend 6 hours on their phone daily.

Cut just 2 hours a day, and that can add up to around 8 years of life reclaimed.

Every hour you reclaim from distraction is an hour you can invest into building, learning, growing, and moving forward.

Killing the noise should not mean cutting off the people who matter.

You can focus while maintain a social life. We’re still human at the end of the day, connection matters, it keeps us sane.

Breakfree block distracting apps and connect to your Instagram DMs.

Comment “breakfree” and I’ll send the download link.

Use social media as a social platform instead of mindless consumption.

Comment “free” and I’ll send you the link to the free app.

Here’s how it works:

- We block distracting apps.
- We connect your Instagram DMs so you can read and reply to messages. (Messages saved locally, we don’t store them)
- You don’t need to unblock apps just to respond to people and risk falling back into scrolling.
