Frogged is a screen time bully that steps in when you lose control. Not another friendly reminder. Not another "you’ve been scrolling for 30 minutes" notification. Frogged shows up when you’re about to waste time - and calls it out. ---------- How Frogged works When you open apps you know you shouldn't: • Frogged blocks access • Frogged interrupts mindless scrolling • Frogged reminds you what you’re really doing No motivation speeches. No fake encouragement. ---------- Built for people who: • Can’t stop scrolling • Keep opening social apps on autopilot • Want to use their phone less — but don't • Are tired of "gentle" screen time apps that don’t work Frogged doesn’t ask nicely. It intervenes. ---------- What makes Frogged different • Screen time control that actually stops you • App blocking when you lose control • Interrupts compulsive habits • Targets dopamine-driven behavior • No streaks, no rewards, no guilt Frogged isn't here to make you feel better. It’s here to make you stop. All features require paid subscription or free trial.

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: AppHold at 5.0 against Frogged's 3.7. AppHold also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 5 days vs every 3 weeks). Frogged's advantage is ratings volume (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (18.0 vs 26.0). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
