Stop doomscrolling and start your dopamine detox. Most app blockers are easy to bypass — Break Scroll makes you earn your screen time through real physical movement. Turn every unlock into a workout. Build discipline, beat screen addiction, and get fit with every rep. -- The Problem -- You open social media for "one minute" — and suddenly an hour is gone. That's the dopamine loop. Traditional screen time limits are too easy to ignore. You need a physical "circuit breaker" to break the spell. -- The Solution -- Break Scroll is the intentional interceptor for your mindless habits. When you try to open a distracting app, we stop you. To get in, you have to complete a short physical task — like 5 push‑ups or 10 squats. You earn screen time. You earn your focus back. You earn a healthier you. -- Key Features -- Workout to Unlock: Sweat before you scroll. Every app unlock costs reps, not coins. App Shield: Block Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, X, and more before the scroll starts. Featuring cute, eye‑catching stickers and thoughtful questions that make you pause before you unlock. 12+ Exercises: Push‑ups, Diamond Push‑ups, Squats, Plank, Jumping Jacks, Walking, High Knees, Bicep Curls, Butt Kicks, Lateral Raises, Knee to Elbow, Toe Touches — and more coming soon! Workouts: Curated sets of exercises to keep you physically engaged and earn bigger screen time rewards. Journey Mode: Turn your fitness into an epic adventure! Explore 5 unique worlds — The Fog, City of Notifications, Mountains of Distraction, Ocean of Endless Scrolling, and Summit of Freedom. Complete levels, defeat mini‑bosses and world bosses, and reclaim your focus one world at a time. Collectible Badges: Earn beautifully designed, RPG‑style graphic badges as you progress. From the Trailblazer badge for your first Journey level to world‑boss conqueror badges, each one is a unique piece of art you'll want to collect. XP & Title Ladder: Every rep, every workout, every Journey node earns you XP. Level up from Scroll Apprentice all the way to Eternal Clarity, unlocking prestigious titles that showcase your dedication. Shield Stickers: Customize your lock screen with fun, adorable stickers that make your shield uniquely yours. Uninstall Protection: Enable this to prevent easy bypassing. You can't quit that easily. Smart Notifications: Gentle reminders to stay mindful of your digital wellbeing. Progress Tracking: Watch your push‑up count climb — not from a workout plan, but from resisting the urge to scroll. Dopamine Detox: Reset your brain's reward system by adding a healthy "cost" to distractions. -- Why It Works -- Science shows that a brief physical "interruption" can break the trance of mindless scrolling. By the time you finish your push‑ups, the impulse to scroll has usually faded. You're not just blocking apps — you're rewiring your brain. -- What Users Are Saying -- "The only app that actually made me move." — Priya K. "I replaced my gym guilt with scroll guilt. Now I'm actually fit." — Jake M.

QuitRisk
Read full descriptionHide full description
QuitRisk is a private, judgment-free companion for anyone who wants to step away from gambling and rebuild their life, one honest day at a time. There's no account to create, no profile to fill out, and no one to explain yourself to — just you and your progress. TRACK YOUR STREAK A simple daily check-in keeps your gambling-free streak honest. Answer one question each day, and QuitRisk builds a clear picture of your progress: current streak, longest streak, total clean days, and a full calendar you can look back on. If a day goes differently than planned, you can log it with an optional note about what triggered it — over time, this helps you notice your own patterns instead of guessing at them. SEE WHAT YOU'RE SAVING Tell QuitRisk roughly what gambling used to cost you, and watch a running total build with every clean day. Watching real money stack up instead of disappear is one of the most concrete reminders of why you're doing this. GET THROUGH THE HARD MOMENTS Urges don't wait for a convenient time, so Crisis Mode is built to be opened in seconds. Try a guided breathing exercise to slow things down, a short distraction activity to interrupt the urge, or a step-count challenge to get moving and change your environment. Write yourself a personal note in a calm moment, so future-you has something honest to read when it's hard. Five short guidance cards walk you through what to do right now, step by step. UNDERSTAND THE GAMES Seven short, plain-language courses break down how the odds actually work behind roulette, blackjack, slot machines, and sports betting, including the house edge and margins that are built in from the start. A separate course walks through the tactics used to keep players engaged longer than they intended. There are no strategy tips, no operator names, and no links to any gambling site — just the math, laid out clearly, so you can see the picture whole. A PRACTICAL QUIT CHECKLIST Ending things cleanly is its own kind of hard. QuitRisk walks you through closing out betting accounts, protecting whatever money you have left, and finding the right way to tell the people you trust — with a direct link into Crisis Mode if the process itself brings up an urge. STAY MOTIVATED Small wins add up. Earn achievements as you hit milestones, finish courses, and grow your streak, and level up as you go. Reminders help you check in consistently without being pushy, and a rotating set of recovery quotes offers a bit of perspective on the days you need it most. PRIVATE, BY DESIGN QuitRisk doesn't ask who you are. There's no sign-up, no social feed, and nothing to share unless you choose to. It's built to be opened quietly, on your own terms, whether that's your first day or your five-hundredth. QuitRisk doesn't lecture and doesn't diagnose. It's a self-help tool, not a substitute for professional treatment — if you're in crisis or need immediate support, please reach out to a local support line or your doctor. Available in multiple languages and designed to be simple enough to open on your worst day. SUBSCRIPTION QuitRisk offers optional auto-renewing subscription plans (weekly and annual) as well as a one-time lifetime purchase for full access to the app. A separate, optional in-app purchase lets you buy extra XP boosts if you want them; these are cosmetic and never required to use any recovery tool in the app. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID account settings.
