UNTILT VS SCREEN TIME.
Screen Time is free, built in, and worth using — and for sportsbooks specifically it has three structural holes: you hold the passcode, 'Ignore Limit' is one tap, and the web versions stay reachable. Untilt seals those three. Side-by-side below.
Side by side
| Screen Time | Untilt | |
|---|---|---|
| Price | Free, built in | Free 1-hour walls · Pro for longer |
| Mid-urge override | Ignore Limit / your passcode | Nothing to toggle mid-wall |
| Sportsbook websites | Manual list, per domain, forever | Covered by default, all browsers |
| New operator domains | You add them | Shipped blocklist updates |
| DFS + prediction markets | Only what you configure | PrizePicks, Underdog, Kalshi, Polymarket by default |
| Built for | Screen-life balance | The moment the urge hits |
The full teardown of why the balance tool loses to the urge — passcode psychology, the Ignore Limit valve, the unmaintainable website list — is here: why Screen Time won't stop you from betting.
Questions
Should I turn Screen Time off if I use Untilt?
No — keep it. Screen Time is good ambient hygiene, and Untilt Pro can use its one adversarially strong power: blocking app deletion while a wall is active. The two stack.
Is there anything Screen Time blocks that Untilt doesn't?
Yes — anything outside the blocklist: games, social apps, general screen-life. Untilt is deliberately narrow: sportsbooks, DFS, prediction markets. Use Screen Time for balance, the wall for the books.
SEAL A WALL INSTEAD.
Hold once. Covered sportsbooks, DFS apps, and prediction markets stop loading on this iPhone. 1-hour walls are free forever; Pro holds longer.
