App Blocker: BreathScroll

Pause before you scroll. BreathScroll is a mindful app blocker that turns every impulsive tap into a calm breathing pause — block Instagram, TikTok, and the apps that pull you in. Every time you reach for the social app you didn't really mean to open — Instagram, TikTok, X, YouTube — BreathScroll meets you with a breath. Not a block. Not a guilt trip. Just a moment. And the more you meditate, the gentler that moment becomes. — How it works — 1. Choose the apps that pull you in. 2. When you tap one, BreathScroll invites you into a breathing pause. 3. Pass through the pause, and the app opens for a few minutes. 4. Meditate daily, and tomorrow's pauses get shorter. — What makes it different — Most screen-time apps are built around restriction: lock, schedule, punish. BreathScroll is built around intentionality. The friction is always there — but it's calm, not aggressive. Meditation isn't how you earn more screen time. It's how you train yourself to need the friction less. — A daily practice — Set a meditation goal that fits you, from 15 minutes to two hours a day. Keep your streak alive on the Home Screen widget. Notice your pauses get softer over time. — Honest about how it works — BreathScroll uses Apple's Family Controls and Screen Time APIs. When you tap a blocked app, iOS shows its system shield first; you then open BreathScroll for the breathing pause. We can't intercept in place — but we believe the small extra step is part of the practice. — Privacy — We don't see which apps you block, how often you open them, or what you do inside them. Apple's Screen Time APIs keep that on your device. — BreathScroll Pro — BreathScroll requires a subscription to access all features. Start with a free 7-day trial.
