Could you build this?
Partial The focus-mode UI and block lists are simple, but enforcing blocks across devices at the OS level needs platform-specific system access that is hard to make tamper-resistant.
What it would actually take: A desktop version can use hosts-file edits, process monitoring, and browser extensions, while mobile needs Apple's Screen Time APIs and Android accessibility or device-admin hooks. Reliable cross-device enforcement with anti-bypass protection requires low-level OS and security expertise and ongoing maintenance as platform rules change.
