About this app

Are you or your child stuck in an endless doom scrolling loop? SmolSteps is a screen time parental control app that turns mindless scrolling into moments of growth, learning, and mindfulness.

Instead of strictly locking you out of your device, SmolSteps uses a "gentle interruption" method.

HOW IT WORKS:
• Set Your Limits: Parents or users easily configure parameters like session limits, color suppression time, and learning mode time.
• Activate Healthy Time: Simply toggle on "Healthy Time" to start the session.
• The Grayscale: When the color suppression time is reached, your screen fades to grayscale, a proven psychological cue that makes the device less stimulating and encourages you to put it down.
• Educational Interruption: If the device is still being used when the learning mode time is reached, SmolSteps gently interrupts the screen with a custom video from your library, turning wasted time into a productive learning moment.

Trust the process. Small steps shape lasting habits.

CORE FEATURES:
• Custom Content Library: Add your own educational videos or custom content directly to the app. You decide exactly what plays during an interruption!
• 100% Offline & Private: Your data stays yours. SmolSteps works completely offline and features absolutely no data tracking, data mining, or data harvesting.
• Smart App Interruption: Break the dopamine cycle seamlessly with timed grayscale warnings and video breaks.
• Built for Parents: Perfect for parents wanting to introduce microlearning to their kids.
