About this app

Stop doomscrolling and reclaim your time with Scroll Break—the ultimate Reels and Shorts Blocker designed for complete screen time control and digital wellbeing. Break free from infinite scroll traps, stop social media distractions, and build better phone habits today.

Are short-form video algorithms stealing hours of your day? Scroll Break gives you the power to block distracting short feeds while keeping the rest of your favorite apps completely functional.

⚡ KEY FEATURES
🚫 Block Instagram Reels & YouTube Shorts
Target the main culprit of mindless scrolling. Scroll Break acts as a specialized Shorts blocker and Reels blocker, letting you disable addicting short video feeds in real time. Reply to important messages and watch long-form educational videos without falling into the "infinite scroll trap."

🔒 Smart Website Blocker
Stay focused on work or study by blocking distracting websites across all major mobile browsers. Block social media feeds, news sites, or shopping platforms with custom blocklists.

⏱️ Screen Time Control & Cooldown Timers
Set intentional time limits before opening distracting apps. When your allocated time ends, Scroll Break prompts you to step away. The forced cooldown period prevents instant reopening, effectively breaking the "just one more minute" habit.

📊 Real Digital Wellbeing & Focus Tracking
Move beyond basic screen time counters. Scroll Break tackles the specific features that trigger addiction, helping you reduce phone usage, improve attention span, and increase daily productivity.

🎯 WHY CHOOSE SCROLL BREAK?
Surgical Blocking: Don't delete entire apps—just block the addictive feeds like Reels and Shorts.

Intelligent Intervention: Dynamic pop-ups make you pause before opening distracting apps.

Privacy-First: Your data never leaves your phone. No tracking, no external servers.

🔒 PERMISSION NOTICE & PRIVACY
Accessibility Service API Notice:
Scroll Break uses the AccessibilityService API strictly to detect when you open targeted short video feeds (such as Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts) or blocked web URLs in your browser. This permission is necessary to inspect screen elements in real time and trigger your customized blocking overlay.

Your Privacy Comes First: Scroll Break does NOT collect, store, or transmit any personal data, keystrokes, or browsing history. All detection logic runs 100% locally on your device.
