ScrollScholar helps you stop scrolling, and it does it using YOUR materials from your class or course. Choose the language-learning mode instead, and you scroll only after you finish a lesson. Studies show a direct link between mindless scrolling and lower well-being. Most of us know the feeling. A guilt that we should be doing something meaningful, like studying or learning a language, while remaining sucked into our phones. Why is it so hard to stop scrolling? Because addictive apps are designed to be "frictionless." They remove every hurdle between you and the next hit of dopamine. ScrollScholar adds positive friction to break that automatic loop. By placing a shield in front of your distracting apps, we help your brain switch from "autopilot" to "intentional mode." In behavioral science, adding just a few seconds of friction to a bad habit is often enough to stop the craving. We use that moment to redirect your energy toward something productive. And if you spend the points you earn from studying on screen time, you have at least earned it. We don't expect you to study for hours. ScrollScholar is built on habit-stacking. By tying your studying to your phone usage, you get the frequent, short sessions that long-term memory actually needs. Small daily wins add up to real knowledge, and knowing the material is how you get the A. Or learn the language. Break free from bad habits. Cut your screen time and learn something while you do it. KEY FEATURES Study with your own materials. Upload the notes, slides, and readings from your class, and ScrollScholar turns them into quiz questions made for you. Answer questions to build up points, then spend those points to open the apps you want. ScrollScholar puts a productivity gate in front of the apps you choose, so opening them takes a moment of intention. Pick a language and unlock scrolling only after you finish a lesson. Short, frequent study sessions tied to your phone usage, so the material sticks. A few minutes at a time leads to knowing the material, and knowing the material leads to better grades. HOW IT WORKS Choose the apps you want to put behind the shield. Add your study materials, or pick a language to learn. Answer questions to earn points. Spend your points to unlock screen time. You checked your feed, and you earned it. SUBSCRIPTION ScrollScholar Pro is an auto-renewing subscription. It unlocks the whole app: the shield in front of your chosen apps, quiz questions generated from your own class materials, earned screen time, progress and streaks, and all four language packs. Current pricing, the subscription length, and any free trial are shown in the app before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when you confirm the purchase. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple Account settings. GET IN TOUCH https://scrollscholar.com/terms https://scrollscholar.com/privacy Contact us at admin@morrelventures.com
