Scrolling 6+ hours a day? That's 90+ days a year gone. ScrollStop doesn't just block your apps - it makes you earn them back. Every time you reach for Instagram, TikTok, or any app you've blocked, ScrollStop steps in with a simple deal: complete a quick mission first. Pushups, breathing exercises, a glass of water, a walk outside. Small actions that break the autopilot loop and put you back in control. This isn't about willpower. It's about friction that actually works. HOW IT WORKS Open a blocked app > ScrollStop intercepts > Complete a mission > Earn Brain Power > Unlock access through the Time Vault. The more disciplined you are, the more freedom you earn. Skip the mission? The app stays locked. MISSIONS - MOVE YOUR BODY, FREE YOUR PHONE Choose from real exercises that take seconds, not minutes: Pushups, squats, sit-ups, jumping jacks Planks and mountain climbers Customize reps and difficulty to match your fitness level Every mission completed earns Brain Power - your currency for unlocking screen time. BOOSTS - BREATHE, REFLECT, RECONNECT Go beyond exercise with guided sessions designed for how you actually feel: 6 unique breathing patterns - from a quick energy burst to deep calm before sleep Gratitude journaling and emotional check-ins Photo Quests: snap a pic of sunlight, a healthy meal, a clean desk, or just go touch grass TIME VAULT - EARN YOUR SCREEN TIME Spend your Brain Power to unlock apps for 15, 30, or 45 minutes. When time's up, apps relock automatically. You decide how much access you've earned - and the app holds you to it. 35 LEVELS. BRONZE TO ZENITH. Progress from Newcomer through Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond tiers - all the way to Zenith. Every day of discipline levels you up. Build streaks. Watch your mascot thrive as your habits improve (or struggle when they don't). Your progress is visual, tangible, and addictive in the right way. YOUR PERSONAL ATTENTION PROFILE ScrollStop's onboarding identifies your unique relationship with your phone - when you're most vulnerable, what triggers your scrolling, and what you actually want your time back for. Your experience is shaped around you, not a one-size-fits-all blocker. SMART ANALYTICS Daily and weekly Brain Power earned vs. spent Mission completion history Time Vault usage tracking Progress visualization by day, week, and month FULLY CUSTOMIZABLE Block any app or set of apps Adjust difficulty: Gentle, Balanced, or Intense Pick your preferred missions and boosts Pause blocking when you need to - emergencies happen WHY SCROLLSTOP WORKS WHEN OTHER BLOCKERS DON'T Basic blockers are easy to dismiss. ScrollStop creates purposeful friction - a physical or mindful action that interrupts the dopamine loop before it starts. You don't just resist the urge. You replace it with something better. And because you're earning Brain Power and leveling up, staying off your phone actually feels rewarding. PERFECT FOR Students who need to lock in during exam season Professionals who want deep focus back Anyone tired of losing hours to mindless scrolling People who've tried other blockers and turned them off Parents setting healthier boundaries Stop earning screen time for algorithms. Start earning it for yourself. Download ScrollStop. Your attention is worth more than a feed. A subscription is required to use ScrollStop.
