SmartScroll: Stop Brainrot
Screen Time App Blocker
Free · In-App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Stop doomscrolling before it becomes another lost hour. SmartScroll adds a pause before TikTok, Reels, Shorts, and X so you can reclaim focus and screen time.
SmartScroll helps you stop doomscrolling by adding a pause before the apps that steal your time.
You know the loop: you open TikTok, Instagram, YouTube Shorts, or X for "one minute" and suddenly an hour is gone. SmartScroll is built for the moment before that happens.
This is not just a screen time tracker or a basic app blocker. It is a behavioural interruption system for phone addiction, social media addiction, and the automatic scroll habit.
Choose the apps that pull you in. When you hit your limit, SmartScroll adds a friction layer before the automatic open turns into another feed session. Instead of falling straight into TikTok, Reels, or Shorts, you get a short interruption that helps you pause, learn, and choose what happens next.
Use SmartScroll to:
- Stop doomscrolling before it takes over
- Add friction to distracting apps and social media
- Reclaim screen time from automatic scrolling
- Turn dead scroll impulses into quick learning moments
- Support a dopamine detox without deleting every app
- Build a habit of pausing before you scroll
Core features:
- App limits for the feeds that steal your time
- Smart interruptions before blocked apps unlock
- Quick knowledge cards that replace mindless scrolling
- Guardian Mode for stronger app blocking
- Life Grid to see the real cost of wasted time
Built for people who:
- Open apps without thinking
- Lose time to "just one more video"
- Feel brain rot after scrolling
- Want better focus without an all-or-nothing phone detox
- Need friction because willpower alone has not worked
SmartScroll adds the pause before doomscrolling takes over.
Free to download. Premium features require an in-app purchase.
