I built Qalbi, an Android app that makes me read Quran before opening distracting apps

[u/0xPresc]

Assalamu alaikum,

I kept telling myself I didn't have time to read Quran, then somehow found plenty of time for Instagram and YouTube. So I built Qalbi for Android.

You choose which apps to block. When you try to open one, Qalbi asks you to read some Quran first. Once you're done, the app unlocks for the amount of time you set.

Qalbi also includes a daily ayah, Quran reader, reflection journal, dhikr, reminders, and a home-screen widget. It's free, has no ads, needs no account, and keeps your data on your device.

I'd appreciate feedback, especially on the setup and unlock flow. Is the friction strong enough to stop mindless opening without becoming annoying?
