Why quitting is hard

The sportsbook isn't fighting fair.

It's not a willpower problem. It's you against a retention machine built to pull you back. So we built the counter to every move.

Ping you a “$500 bonus bet” the week you try to quit.

The app is benched. The bonus has nowhere to land.

Pay creators to post parlays all over your feed.

Safe Social pulls them out of Instagram, X and TikTok.

Sell you on the one big win that erases everything.

A real number, growing daily, that shows what quitting is worth.

Catch you alone at 1am after a bad beat.

A panic button and a plan for that exact moment.

How Benched works

Four tools. One clean streak.

01Block

Bench the apps

FanDuel, DraftKings and the rest get blocked with Apple Screen Time. Open one and you hit a wall instead of a bet slip.

02Filter

Clean up your feed

Deleting the app is the easy part. Benched strips sportsbook ads, parlays and tipsters out of Instagram, X and TikTok.

03Track

Watch it stack

Every clean day adds to your streak and your money kept. The number that used to go to the books is now yours.

04Hold

Beat the urge

A panic button and a plan for the exact moment it hits. Ride out the wait and the urge passes. It always does.

The part nobody else solves

You deleted the app. Your feed didn't.

Every blocker stops the sportsbook. None of them stop the parlay guys, the tipsters and the “risk free bet” ads waiting in your feed. Benched pulls that out inside Instagram, X and TikTok before it reaches you.

Questions

Straight answers.

Anything else? Email trybenched@gmail.com. A real person reads it.

Is this rehab?

No. Benched is a self-improvement tool for guys who want to stop betting and get their money and attention back. No lectures, no labels. If gambling has you in crisis, call 1-800-MY-RESET (US) any time.

How does the blocking work?

Benched uses Apple's Screen Time (Family Controls), the same system iPhone parental controls run on. The block lives at the system level, not inside some flimsy app.

Can Benched see what apps I use?

No. Apple keeps your app selection and activity on your phone and only gives Benched anonymous tokens. We never learn which apps you picked, and we never sell your data.

What does it cost?

Benched is free to download. Premium is a subscription billed through Apple. You see the price before you pay and can cancel any time in your Apple ID settings.

Is there an Android version?

Not yet. Benched is iPhone only for now.
