Dr Brainrot
Read full descriptionHide full description
Dr Brainrot locks your most distracting apps and asks for a short brain game before you scroll. The reflex that opens a feed before you have decided to meets a round of thinking first, and scrolling becomes a choice again. He is an eccentric inventor, and the app is his laboratory: twelve experiments for your memory, attention and reasoning. They play like games. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps that eat your day. They sit behind a real lock. 2. Play a session. Dr Brainrot deals three experiments and you take one: ten quick rounds against the clock. 3. Earn coins. Every right answer banks them, and they never expire. 4. Spend them your way. Buy minutes of feed, or save up for the next experiment in the lab. TWELVE EXPERIMENTS Simon, Grid Memory, Grid Mirror and Digit Span stretch how much you can hold in your head. Symbol Code and Blind Code keep your attention on the task. Pattern Matrix and Mental Math work your reasoning. Anagram and Word Hunt are for word lovers, Countries covers flags and outlines, and the Quiz draws on over 4,500 trivia questions across twelve themes. Four are open from day one and the rest unlock as you climb. Game rounds are generated fresh, so they never repeat. YOU SET THE DIFFICULTY Every experiment starts on its plainest board. Switch on modifiers before a session (a bigger grid, rarer words, less time per question) and it pays more coins and more points. A miss on a harder board costs a little too, so the choice stays a real one. ONE BRAIN LEVEL Every session feeds one level, on a ladder of ten ranks from Lab Rat up to Nobel Brain. The ranks above you stay hidden until you reach them. A bad session can dip your points, but a level you have reached is yours for good. PROVE YOU REMEMBER Get a trivia question right and next time you type the answer from memory instead of picking it. A REAL LOCK A system-level block, not a polite reminder. Built on Apple Screen Time, it holds when Dr Brainrot is closed, and when your minutes run out the apps lock again on their own. Stop early and the unused coins come back. JUST YOU No account, no leaderboards, no friends list, no comparison. Your blocked apps, level and history stay on your phone. Dr Brainrot is a subscription: weekly, or yearly with a free trial. Cancel any time in your App Store account settings. Privacy Policy: https://dr-brainrot.com/privacy Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
