GoldTime Shield vs Don't Scroll

GoldTime is a screen time management app that helps you pause before opening apps out of habit. Group the apps you tend to get lost in—social media, videos, games, and more—and choose how you want to block them. When you reach a set limit, the app is locked, prompting you to consciously decide whether to keep using it or stop. There are three blocking modes: • Daily Limit Set a daily usage limit. Your available time decreases based on how long you actually use the apps. • Scheduled Blocking Block selected apps during specific times of the day. • Cooldown Lock Use an app for a while, then have it locked so you can take a short break. When you reach your limit, the choices are simple: • Stop using the app • Use it for just 1 more minute • Watch an ad for additional time GoldTime isn’t designed to block apps unconditionally. It adds a small cost to the choice of continuing, turning mindless use into a conscious decision. Key Features • Manage up to 5 groups and 49 apps • Organize apps into custom groups such as social media, videos, and games • Daily limits, scheduled blocking, and cooldown locks • Set different daily-limit, scheduled-blocking, and cooldown rules for each day of the week • Limits that decrease based on actual app usage • Lock screen displayed when a limit is reached • Choose to stop, extend by 1 minute, or watch an ad for more time • Review usage trends with weekly and monthly records • Track ad-free days and time spent beyond your limits GoldTime’s goal isn’t to show you more ads. If you close the app without watching one, you’ve won the day. Time is gold. Don’t just spend it—make it count.

Ever gone to bed intending to sleep, only to realize it's 2 a.m. and you're still scrolling? Don't Scroll helps you stop doomscrolling before bed—without relying on willpower alone. Choose the apps that keep you awake. Set a lock schedule, and they'll be blocked automatically when it's time to wind down. Unlike a typical app blocker, Don't Scroll doesn't stop at "no." When you try to open a blocked app, you can take a three-minute pause with calming sounds. Sometimes that small interruption is enough to break the scroll and put the phone down. WHEN WILLPOWER ISN'T ENOUGH Every app blocker has the same weak point: you can turn it off. Late at night, that can be all too easy. Power Lock closes that loophole. Give the unlock code to someone you trust—a partner, friend, or family member. They receive it by email, and from then on, they hold the key—not you. If you force an override, they'll be notified. Scroll less. Sleep more. HOW IT WORKS • Choose the apps that keep you awake • Set your lock schedule • When you reach for a blocked app, take a three-minute pause or call it a night FEATURES • Automatic bedtime app blocking • Calming sleep sounds • Purpose-based locks for delivery apps, work distractions, and more • Nightly reports, patterns, and streaks DON'T SCROLL PLUS • Power Lock—let someone you trust hold the unlock code • Nightly pattern insights—see when you're most likely to reach for blocked apps • Premium sleep sounds—waves, airplane cabin, and pink noise • Streak protection for the occasional off night • Multiple lock schedules and unlimited app selection • PIN-protected settings • Ad-free experience Your selected apps, usage data, and sleep history stay on your device.
