You can try Tasker or Automateit but both are complex & will need some time to learn.

Na bro need a simple app for this stuff.
I don't think there is a simple app for this(except the kind you already know about) but wait for others.

Digital wellbeing by Google
*play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.apps.wellbeing
Better use it on custom ROM with stock or Aroma GApps

Need it for someone's phone, in that phone's stock rom only. AFAIK GW can cut off access to mostly all apps and not for a user selected app.

No, i tried it for some apps.
You can select app timer for each app and GW will not allow you to access that app for that entire day. (But you can delete existing timer and use it again from settings. there is no "No Means No" strict actions).
Schedule time feature is not there.
There are more apps

I am not using action dash..
Best way to learn app functioning is to go through every setting..

From its dev
"Unfortunately, as of now, that is not a feature of Action Dash. But Thanks for the feature suggestions. We'll give it some thought, and evaluate how much work would be involved, whether we agree its a good fit for Action Launcher, and how it aligns with the current plans for future Action Launcher updates. We encourage you to keep an eye out for future updates."

what are your favored NON-STOCK dialer/contacts apps?
when you search for a contact in the default android dialer, you cannot select it. you can only dial it. so, to forward a number, you cannot simply search for it and select it and forward. you have to hunt it down manually.
im just looking for a dialer/contact app that is lightweight and is not retarded like the default one.
any "feature" would be extra, i just want to get rid of the default dialer/contacts.
im not looking for bloatware/malware like Drupe or Truecaller.

I did not know that this feature was missing in Actiondash. I suggested apps related to digital wellbeing..
You should try some addction or stay focus apps.. like below..
*play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stayfocused&hl=en_IN
*play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.mobilesoft.appblock&hl=en_IN
*play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.dfki.appdetox&hl=en

I would suggest you to try any custom rom of your choice from xda site.. (you can flash gapps over it)..
You will get better (trust me, its better) dialer app (with build in call record feature) and contact app from custom rom (android stock)..
or
try Google phone app and google contact app. Install it from play store.
Phone = *play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.dialer
Contacts = *play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.contacts
Any case you can't download and install "phone" app from play store.. try from below site..
Phone = Google Phone APKs - APKMirror
Contacts = Google Contacts APKs - APKMirror
in case new version does not work on your android.. then try..
Google Dialer (old) APKs - APKMirror
or
try patch version of google phone

Brother none of those apps blocks a specific app.
Google phone does not let us to long press on a contact and then forward it afaik.

Try this
*play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cz.mobilesoft.appblock
*play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wverlaek.block
*play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.stayfocused
