BREAK ENDLESS SCROLLING AND TAKE BACK YOUR SCREEN TIME You opened your phone for a minute. Somehow, an hour disappeared. ScrollCheckpoint helps you notice mindless scrolling and build more intentional phone habits without completely blocking the apps you enjoy. Set a Scroll Alarm before opening an app that tends to keep you scrolling. Choose your scroll time and the checkpoint you want to complete. When your time is up, ScrollCheckpoint gives you a reason to pause before another hour disappears. SET A SCROLL ALARM Choose the apps you want to monitor and decide how long you want to scroll. When your scroll time is up, your Scroll Alarm gets your attention and gives you a checkpoint to complete. The goal isn't to stop you from using your phone. It's to help you notice when intentional screen time turns into mindless scrolling. NEVER FORGET YOUR SCROLL ALARM Opened one of your selected apps without setting a Scroll Alarm? ScrollCheckpoint reminds you to set your scroll time and checkpoint before you get pulled into the endless scroll. You decide when you want to scroll. ScrollCheckpoint gives you a stopping point.
