Stop scrolling. Start doing. We all lose time to endless scrolling. Loopdrop helps you take control back. When scrolling turns automatic, Loopdrop steps in and gently redirects you to something that actually matters. How it works: • Detects when you spend too much time on distracting apps • Interrupts the scroll at the right moment • Suggests quick, meaningful tasks • Helps you build better habits over time What you can do with Loopdrop: • Set custom goals and micro-tasks • Get real-time nudges when scrolling takes over • Block apps during focus sessions • Track your progress and time regained • Turn small actions into real momentum Why Loopdrop? Because the problem isn’t scrolling - it’s losing control of your time. Loopdrop gives it back.

Create a focus schedule e.g. mornings, work hours, evenings, or all day 2. Choose which apps to block (social media, work related apps) 3. When the schedule starts, those apps are locked behind a shield screen. No more notifications, no messages from those apps during the schedule 4. Open a blocked app by habit? You see an affirmation, not a feed Blocking is enforced by Apple's Screen Time technology, the same system behind iOS parental controls. No willpower needed, the apps simply won't open. NEED A REAL BREAK? Life happens. Tap "Request 15 Minutes" on the block screen for a short window, then blocking resumes automatically.
