If your iPhone has become more of a distraction than a tool, Blank Spaces might be exactly what you need. This minimal home screen launcher replaces your cluttered app grid with a clean, text-based widget — putting only your most important apps front and center and hiding everything else.^1
Built by Ecstasis LLC, Blank Spaces transforms your iPhone into something closer to a dumbphone while keeping access to the apps that actually matter — your camera, messages, maps, and whatever else you choose. Features include customizable widgets, app locking with scheduled times, breathing exercises, and even a "touch grass" unlock that requires you to physically go outside.^2 The app collects no user data and has earned a well-reviewed reputation with over 50,000 members reclaiming their attention.^1
As featured in The Wall Street Journal and TechCrunch, Blank Spaces has become one of the go-to tools in the digital minimalism movement — and it's actively maintained with regular updates, including full iOS 26 and liquid glass support.^1
