Pause doomscrolling before it drains your day. Stop Scrolling quietly measures how far you’ve scrolled, then nudges you to reset with smart reminders and mindful tools.
I built the app after trying countless options that buried their help behind ads, trackers, or distracting extras.
Stop Scrolling will stay simple, offline, ad-free and tracker-free so the experience is always focused on giving you space to breathe.
Key features:
- Scroll tracking that works across your favorite apps.
- Adjustable scroll distance threshold with at-a-glance progress notifications.
- Heads-up reminder screen with snooze controls so you can pause or defer.
- Recent history and insights to review when (and where) you tend to over-scroll.
- Inactivity reset timer that clears your progress when you naturally take breaks.
- Privacy-friendly design: all calculations stay on-device, no accounts required, no ads, no trackers, always offline
Why permissions are required:
Stop Scrolling depends on Android's Accessibility Service and notification access to measure scroll distance and surface timely reminders. These permissions let the app observe scrolling activity and show gentle nudges. Nothing more. No personal content leaves your device, and the app never harvest data. It's simply the only way Android allows an app like this to function.
