You open social media for one quick check. Half an hour later, you’re still scrolling. ScrollKick helps stop that moment before it happens — without forcing you to quit social media. Set a Session Limit to keep each visit short. Add a Daily Limit, Blocked Hours, or Always Blocked when you want stronger boundaries. BREAK THE SCROLL, NOT YOUR SOCIAL LIFE When a limit is reached, ScrollKick interrupts the scroll. Choose how hard it should be to continue with four protection levels — from a short mindful pause to stronger protection. Temporary access ends automatically, and the app returns to protection. KEY FEATURES • Session limits for each scrolling session • Daily limits and blocked hours • Always Blocked for selected apps • Four protection levels • Custom pause and access timers • Strict Mode for stronger commitment • Screen-time insights • Kick Points and progress tracking Start free with essential protection for one app. ScrollKick Pro unlocks more apps, stronger protection, custom timers, Strict Mode, and extended insights. ScrollKick uses Apple’s Screen Time technology to protect selected apps on your device. Check social media. Don’t get stuck there.
