New Feature Ideas

Please make a Brick that is compatible with Apple MacBooks! I would buy it right up immediately!

I find I’ll be doing really well with brick controlling my doom scrolling by blocking my socials, but then something I need to unbrick will come up and I just seem to forget to brick again. Sometimes it’s hours other times it’s days. A cheap to implement but super valuable feature would be to have an option when tapping to unbrick is to unbrick for a limited time, perhaps with choices like 15 mins 1 hour 6 hours 1 day After the time has elapsed my phone would go back to being bricked automatically

We have some teenagers that work part time for us at our church setting us for Mass. We implemented a brick policy for them to brick their phones when they work. I set up the settings for them. However, I realized they could easily change settings to get access to the apps they want and we wouldn't know unless we checked their phones as they worked. I would love to have a parental setting where I could set their "Work" mode and in order to change the apps you need to enter a password. This way they are unable to change the settings when they are at home.

You'll not be able to turn off or snooze the alarm unless you tap the Brick

It would ramp my commitment to Brick if I knew it would text a buddy when I unbrick. Would also be a phenomenal viral loop for you to sell more Bricks!

I'd love to be able to add an end time to my schedule - e.g. "Work Mode" from 8am-5pm so that I can know my phone is bricked during the work day but have the ability to use my apps while I ride the bus home :)

I'm a teacher at a school in Manhattan, and our school is looking to implement an effective phone policy this year that will best support our students' learning and mental wellbeing. Two challenges we've faced in deciding on and implementing a policy is pushback (1) from parents that they want to be able to contact their student throughout the day, in case of emergency, and (2) from students who want to be able to leave campus during free periods/lunch (this is currently allowed in our "open campus" policy, but something they'd need their phones for). We also don't have a great method/place to "collect" phones. The Brick could be a great solution for us, and so many other schools. Imagine a situation in which: -A single Brick is used for an entire school, placed at the door for students to tap on their way in/out of the building -Admin presets allow school admin to preselect what apps are allowed. Could allow more apps for older students, and keep it more restrictive for younger ones. Phone is always enabled, which solves the problem of parents wanting to be able to contact their student in case of emergency. -A log to show who has Bricked their phones, and when This could even slowly retrain students brains to crave their phone less. Their phone would still be in their pocket, but it wouldn't deliver the same dopamine as it does now. I really think the Brick could become the hottest tool on the market for schools. Way better than the Yondr pouches!

It would be nice to have the option to set a end time to a schedule. For example a bedtime schedule that you set from say 9:00-5:00 so I dont get sucked into my phone and stay up to late. Or another to be brick from 5:00am until 6:00am so I again dont get distracted by my phone and get productive reading or exercise or such done before work.

Let the students keep their phones. Tap the brick as you walk in the rm, teacher can check student list to confirm everyone is "blocked" from social media and games and students can keep their phones in case of emergency (fire evacuation, lockdown...)

High schools need a way to block students use of phones, while still allowing certain apps (like for blood glucose monitoring). You could create one for schools where the brick determines what is allowed, not the individual user. And it's blocked for a certain number of hours unless unbricked. Happy to give you more details of how it could work, if you're interested. It would be a massive market....
