## What is EndTheRot?

Getting off your phone is difficult. EndTheRot makes it a game.

EndTheRot makes you earn your screen time. 
Take a walk, do a workout, finish your chores. It’s up to you.

Haven’t done anything yet? Then you can’t scroll. 
Complete tasks to build up energy. Use those points to unlock screen time, or save them to spend on in-game items like pets, skins, and backgrounds.

Why not Apple’s screen time, or another screen blocker? 
- Takes away your phone without giving you anything to replace it
- Leaves you feeling empty and anxious
- Willpower alone doesn't rewire habits
- Very easy to bypass (just click 15 more minutes or ignore limit for today)

How EndTheRot fixes this:
- Gives you something to do instead of scroll
- Completed tasks build progress
- Gives you the choice to choose screen time or make long term progress towards when saving for pets, skins, and backgrounds
- The system that social media uses to keep you hooked is now working for you, not against you

How it works:
1. Pick an activity
2. Start the timer or take a picture when you’re done
3. Earn energy
4. Spend energy on apps
OR
4. Spend energy to earn in-game cash

What you get inside EndTheRot:
- 3 screen time blockers for distracting apps:
   - 1 for bedtime

   - 1 normal one
- 30+ activities to choose from 
- Detailed progress statistics and phone usage analysis to track your habits
- A cute monkey companion to keep you motivated
- In-game store with pets, backgrounds, and skins to spend your hard earned points on
- A streak counter

Track your progress over time and watch yourself transform. 
EndTheRot turns scrolling from a guilty-pleasure into a powerful motivator. 
You can do this!
