Brick is deliberately dumb hardware: an NFC puck you keep in another room, and when you tap your phone on it your chosen apps stop working. Tap it again on the way out and they come back. There is no account, no subscription and no screen-time dashboard — the entire product is the friction of having to physically get up, which turns out to be the part that actually works. The battery lasts months, and it is the rare digital-wellbeing gadget that never needs to see your usage data.
