Hands Off!
Hands Off! is a parental control and application blocking utility for macOS that lets administrators restrict or prevent access to specific applications, websites, and system features. It is commonly used by parents to manage what their children can run on shared Macs, by educators in classroom settings, and by organizations to enforce software policies. The app allows granular control over which programs can be launched, when they can be used, and which system functions are available, with options for time-based restrictions and activity logging.

1 suggestionWe could not confirm whether a native Apple Silicon build of Hands Off! exists — the web search results returned information about unrelated remote desktop software and do not contain clear architecture details about this app. The developer's current status and plans for native support are unclear from available sources. We recommend contacting the developer at Metakine directly to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is available or planned. As alternative parental control and application blocking utilities that are actively maintained and support Apple Silicon natively, consider Parental Controls (built into macOS), Lexi, or Screentime Pro, though each has different feature sets and licensing models.
