Could you build this?
Partial The scheduling and selection UI is easy to build. Actually blocking apps requires OS-level permissions and APIs (Android AccessibilityService or UsageStats, or iOS Screen Time) that are restricted and platform-specific.
What it would actually take: A real version needs a native app on the target platform that uses Android accessibility or usage-access APIs, or iOS FamilyControls with its entitlement. The hard part is reliable enforcement that survives OS restrictions and force-quits, which needs knowledge of each platform's privileged APIs and their review policies.
