How to block Reddit on iPhone on a schedule.
Keep Reddit installed, but block it automatically during work, study, evenings, or sleep. Downtime Pro is a one-time purchase, not a subscription.
Block Reddit automatically
Choose Reddit with Apple's Screen Time picker, set the days and times, and Downtime will apply the block automatically.
How to do it with Downtime
Create a schedule
Pick the hours when Reddit should be blocked, such as your workday or late evenings.
Select Reddit
Use Apple's built-in picker to add Reddit to your block rule.
Choose the days
Apply the block on weekdays, weekends, or every day.
Let the schedule run
When the schedule begins, Reddit is blocked automatically.
Choose when Reddit is available
A schedule keeps Reddit blocked during focused time without requiring you to delete the app.
- Keep it unavailable throughout your workday.
- Block it during study sessions to stay focused.
- Set an evening cutoff to protect your sleep.
Block reddit.com as well as the app
Reddit threads often appear in web searches, so blocking only the app can leave an easy route back through Safari. Add reddit.com to the same schedule when you want both routes unavailable.
Outside the scheduled hours, links and the Reddit app work normally again.
No subscription required
Downtime includes one blocking schedule for free. Downtime Pro unlocks unlimited schedules with a one-time purchase.
- No subscription for Pro.
