About this app

Do you keep opening Instagram Reels or YouTube Shorts “for 5 minutes” and then lose an hour?
Unscroll: Block Reels & Shorts helps you break the doomscroll habit by automatically blocking addictive short-video feeds so you can focus on what actually matters.

🚫 Block Reels, Shorts & endless feeds

Unscroll uses Android’s Accessibility Service to detect when you open addictive short-video screens and gently stop you before you fall into infinite scrolling.

With Unscroll, you can:

Block Reels, Shorts and similar short-video feeds

Reduce doomscrolling and impulsive social media use

Make your phone feel calm and focused again

⚙️ Key features

Block Reels & Shorts in supported social apps

Per-app controls – choose which apps to protect

Smart protection that works quietly in the background

Simple, clean UI designed for productivity, not distraction

Optimised for Android 11+ so it keeps running reliably

🎯 Why use Unscroll?

Short-video feeds are designed to keep you hooked. One swipe becomes fifty.
Unscroll flips this: instead of your feeds controlling you, you control your time.

Use Unscroll to:

Study or work without getting pulled into Reels and Shorts

Protect your sleep by cutting late-night scrolling

Build healthier screen-time habits over time

🚀 How to get started

Install Unscroll.

Open the app and enable the Accessibility Service when prompted.

That’s it – Unscroll will now help block Reels, Shorts and similar feeds in the background.

Take back control of your attention.
