Exactly, I dream of it!

I bet Brick could take advantage of Screen time’s “share across devices” feature.

Received my Brick today. Am considering sending it back as it doesn't support my iPad. Why isn't Brick cross-device like Freedom? Wouldn't be so hard.

I found a workaround but it's pretty nerdy.
I have a subscription to Freedom.to which syncs across devices. It has a setting that makes it so only your iPhone can unlock the devices.
I found a Python script at Github that will start a Freedom session and I set it up on a computer I have that's always on and always home. I also set up a simple web interface to launch the script.
Then I added a shortcut on my iPhone to use that web interface to start a Freedom session and an Automation that runs that shortcut when I tap my Brick.
Now with a single tap, I can block out distractions on all my devices.
Did I mention that it was pretty nerdy? :)

I had heard from support this was something developers were working on. Is there an update?

This one is very missing, along with the ability to block on MacOS as well, completely synced. But especially the iPad version should be technically not too different from the iOS version
It would be enough to block / unblock on iPhone, but syncing to iPad
