Choose which apps are a problem for you and Reason will block them. When you want to use them, you'll have to enter a reason and set yourself a time limit. Often you'll just close these apps instead of entering a reason, but even if you don't, your open app will be blocked once your time limit runs out. If you're struggling with screen addiction, this app is for you. If you find yourself opening apps for no apparent reason, we're on the case. If you open messages from friends and then get stuck doomscrolling, we've got you covered. It's a small moment of friction, but by pausing and stating your reason for opening distracting apps, you'll find yourself spending less time glued to your phone.

When a messy room feels too big to start, Reset Room gives you one small move at a time. Choose a room, choose how much energy you have, and begin a guided 5, 10, 15, or 25 minute reset. Each step is short, specific, and designed to reduce overwhelm without turning your home into another source of pressure. WHY RESET ROOM - Start instantly with a clear first action - Pick from kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, living room, workspace, and entryway resets - Match the task order to low, steady, or ready-to-move energy - Use a simple visual timer that keeps one task on screen - Skip any step without losing momentum - See your completed moves and weekly rhythm - Add custom tasks that fit the way your home actually works - Set an optional daily reminder Use it as a simple tidy planner for housework: organize one space, follow a light chores schedule, and build habits through short routines instead of an overwhelming list. BUILT FOR REAL-LIFE ENERGY Reset Room is useful for anyone who struggles with clutter, chores, focus, motivation, or getting started. The app uses gentle structure that can be especially helpful for ADHD-style executive function friction. It is a practical home organizer, not a medical treatment or diagnostic tool.
