Why does WallHabit work?

WallHabit works by using psychology to help you use technology more mindfully. Its unique feature, where you need to do something physical to unlock apps, is like a reminder to think before you use them. This is based on research showing that when there's a physical barrier, people pause and think more about what they're doing. It's called a "commitment device," which means it helps you stick to your goals and resist temptations. Also, WallHabit can block certain parts of apps, like reels and shorts, to help you stay focused. The app is designed to be easy to use, so it can help you have a healthier relationship with technology.

Ratings and reviews

Blocks reels effectively...but I wish I could watch what my friends send me. I do realize that accommodating DM reels might be hard/impossible though, so I still think this app is great at what it does. The infinite scroll in reels is a lot worse than missing out from a couple vids from friends.

This is a great app. It's almost like my dream come true. I always wanted an app that could help me stop doomscrolling. Thanks. Some features you could add: •A message that could be displayed when opening a blocked app. Could be app specific. •Different time spans to hold the finger for each app. Will tell you if I have other suggestions later on.

I'm finding this app super useful! 2 days in I'm already using a lot of my apps less and I love that you have to proactively keep your touch on the screen unlike in apps like onesec where you can just passively wait for the timer.
