Be more specific.

Perhaps "kiosk mode" software so you can only run certain app(s)?

More like a kiosk mode where you can only engage in productive activity. You'd get to define "productive" as well as the time of day where you can only engage in productive tasks.

The distinction is that some apps, like Chrome, can be used for both productive and unproductive activities.
