A budget, not a block

Take back your time.

Offscroll gives your apps a time budget. When it runs out, it does not lock you out. It pauses, gives you a breath, and hands the choice back to you.

The moment that matters

Most apps slam the door. We open a window.

A hard block turns a quiet urge into a fight. Offscroll does the opposite. It pauses, then trusts you to decide. Close it, or take five more minutes. Either way, you just practiced choosing.

  • No passcodes to fight
  • No lockouts, ever
  • The choice stays yours

A breathing pause

When your time is up, a calm breathing moment opens space between the urge and the choice.

Learns what works

A quiet scoring engine surfaces the right nudge at the right moment, based on what has actually helped you.

You are not alone

See how many people chose to close the app this hour. Quiet, anonymous company for a quiet habit.

How it works

Three steps to a calmer scroll.

01

Set a budget

Choose how many minutes per window you want for the apps you pick. Generous or strict, your call.

02

Hit the pause

When the time runs out, a pause appears. Take a breath, then close the app or take five more minutes.

03

Build your pattern

Every close counts. Your resolve rate, streaks, and time saved grow into a rhythm you can watch.

Start where you are.

No streak to protect on day one. No willpower required. Just a calmer relationship with your phone, one pause at a time.
