Could you build this?
Partial The basic app and logic are straightforward, but strict iOS app blocking requires Apple's Screen Time / Family Controls API, which has notoriously strict entitlement approvals and complex restrictions.
What it would actually take: To build this, a developer needs Apple's FamilyControls, ManagedSettings, and DeviceActivity frameworks in Swift. The system requires requesting special Screen Time entitlements from Apple, pairing with CoreNFC for NFC tag reading, and background activity monitors to strictly enforce app shielding without iOS termination bypassing.
