About Farhan

Farhan is an open-source Android application built to help users address phone addiction by reducing exposure to manipulative app design and impulsive usage. It is available for download via Google Play, F-Droid-compatible clients, or as a direct APK from its public GitHub repository, and is developed as a community-driven project under the Apache 2.0 license.

The app provides a suite of customizable tools to limit distracting phone use. Users can set delayed launches for selected apps to curb impulsive opening, filter non-essential notifications while keeping important alerts accessible, block infinite scrolling behavior on social media and similar apps, and apply grayscale filters to specific apps to remove attention-grabbing colors. It also includes usage tracking for individual apps and categories, plus an optional minimal launcher that replaces the standard home screen with a simple app list and supports daily time limits with break reminders.
