You know the feeling. You pick up your phone to check one thing. Forty-five minutes later you're deep in a doom scrolling rabbit hole — and you can't even remember how you got there. You've tried screen time limits. You've deleted the apps. You reinstalled them three days later. That's because it's not a willpower problem — your phone was engineered by billion-dollar teams to keep you hooked. Unhooked gives you the structure, accountability, and science-backed tools to win anyway. HOW UNHOOKED WORKS • STREAK TRACKER — Build your streak and watch your Detox Tree grow from a seed into a forest as you reclaim days of attention. • PANIC BUTTON — The moment the urge to scroll hits, interrupt the pattern with your personal "why" and a proven urge-surfing exercise. • DAILY CHECK-INS & JOURNAL — Morning intentions, evening reflections, and trigger tracking that expose your scrolling patterns. • LIFE METRICS — Watch mood, sleep, focus, and energy improve as screen time drops. Track what actually changes. • BREATHING & MEDITATION — Guided sessions built for cravings, anxiety, and boredom — the real reasons you reach for your phone. • 90-DAY CURRICULUM — Learn exactly how infinite scroll, notifications, and algorithmic feeds hijack dopamine — and how to break their hold. • MINDFUL AI COACH — Support 24/7, including when a relapse is tempting at 1am. (Premium) • ADVANCED INSIGHTS — Personalized pattern analysis of your check-ins, streaks, and metrics. (Premium) UNHOOKED PREMIUM Start free with the essentials. Upgrade anytime for unlimited panic support, the full meditation library, the complete 90-day program, Mindful AI, and advanced insights. Subscriptions renew automatically and can be canceled anytime in your App Store account settings. WHO IT'S FOR — You check your phone first thing in the morning, before you even speak to anyone — You've lost hours to doom scrolling and felt hollow afterward — You scroll until 1am and pay for it the next day — You've bypassed every screen time limit you've ever set — You feel anxious, restless, or empty when you can't check your phone THE SCIENCE Willpower alone fails. Behavioral research shows that streaks, accountability, pattern interruption, and community support dramatically outperform self-discipline. Unhooked combines all four into one daily practice. Your future self — the one who reads books again, sleeps properly, and is actually present — is on the other side of this. Download Unhooked and take back your attention, one day at a time.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: OfflineDay at none against Unhooked's 2. OfflineDay also leads on update cadence (weekly vs every 3 months). Unhooked's advantage is iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
