Update to usage breaker

Feature Request

Hey, i have been using one sec for some while and is a usefull software to use but as a samsung user i have min of 3 browser(chrome,google,samsung internet) which i uses for different thing's.

As i was browseing through the feature list i came across usage breaker. In spirit it shares idea with one sec as a friction point or reminder of our phone usage.

It would be nice to have a friction point while open those apps. As usage breaker in itself is great, this will give it a boost. If i am opening the app without any reason, its better to not let me go through.

    Totally agree with this suggestion. Another app that does the same thing is called screenzen.

    To expand on why having this included in the launcher instead of just using those apps is a good idea, one sec and screenzen both require battery optimizations disabled so they can constantly scan for apps being opened. If this was a part of the launcher, no such background running would be necessary.

    I used to use them and found them quite useful, but the battery reduction just wasn’t worth it.
