Wasted vs Stop Scrolling

Every other screen time app blocks you. Wasted just makes you aware. You don't need another wall between you and your phone — you've tapped "Ignore" on Screen Time limits a hundred times. Wasted is different. It's a nudger, not a blocker. Pick the apps you waste time on (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X…), set a reminder interval, and the moment you go over, Wasted calls you out — with a personality you actually feel. MEET YOUR 5 ARCHETYPES Choose who nudges you. Each one delivers the same wake-up call in a completely different voice: • Minimalist — clean, stoic, no drama. Just the facts. • Satirist — sarcastic and funny. The friend who roasts you with love. • Philosopher — reflective and thought-provoking. Makes you actually think. • Moralist — serious and guilt-driven. No sugar-coating. • Provocateur — aggressive and confrontational. For when you need a slap, not a tap. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps that eat your time. 2. Set how long is "too long." 3. Keep scrolling — Wasted lets you. But the second you cross the line, your archetype fires a notification. Still scrolling? It nudges again, every interval, until you stop. No blocking. No friction wall. No forcing. Just awareness, sharp enough to break the trance. 100% PRIVATE — BY DESIGN • No account. No sign-up. No email. • No cloud. No sync. Nothing leaves your phone. • No analytics. No tracking. No data selling. No ads.

Awareness-based self-control for people who want a tool with a personality, not another sterile productivity app. Stop doom-scrolling. Start noticing.

Take back control of your screen time — and help your kids do the same. Stop Scrolling puts real limits on the apps that eat your day. And now it goes further: you can set your child's daily app limit from your own iPhone. NEW — PARENTAL CONTROLS Set up your child's iPhone once, then manage their limits from yours. No more borrowing their phone every time you want to change something. • Set your child's daily app limit from your own iPhone • Turn website blocking on or off remotely • Lock their settings behind a parent PIN only you know • Link more than one child's phone • Sign in with Apple — your children are still there on any iPhone you sign in to, even after reinstalling HOW IT WORKS 1. On your child's iPhone, install Stop Scrolling while it's signed in to their Apple Account. Run the child setup: choose which apps to limit, set a daily limit, and create a parent PIN. 2. Their phone shows a 6-digit code. 3. On your iPhone, open More → Parental controls → My children, sign in, and enter that code. From then on, you change their daily limit from your own phone. FOR YOUR OWN SCREEN TIME • App Limits — pick the apps that distract you and set a daily time limit • Quick Block — block distracting apps right now, for as long as you choose • Nudge — get intercepted before a distracting app opens • Geofence — block apps automatically when you arrive somewhere • Squat & Push-Up Mode — earn your way back in with real movement • Analytics — see your blocking history and focus streaks PAY ONCE Premium unlocks with a single one-time purchase. No subscription, ever. PARENTAL CONTROLS — WHAT YOU NEED • Your child's iPhone must be signed in to their own Apple Account, and that account must be a child in your Family Sharing group. • Setup runs on your child's phone and needs Screen Time permission. • Limit changes you make apply on your child's iPhone the next time the app runs there. • Parental controls are part of the one-time Premium unlock. Stop Scrolling uses Apple's Screen Time (Family Controls) to apply limits. It never sees which apps your child uses or what they do on their phone.
