Not even hungry, and the delivery app is open again? 🛵
Hey Spike does one thing: the moment you open a delivery app, a recorded voice scolds you. 🔊
■ How it works
1. Pick the delivery apps you want to cut back on. Known Korean delivery apps on your phone (Baemin, Coupang Eats, Yogiyo and others) are listed first, and you can add any other installed app you want to cut back on (phone, messaging, contacts and Settings apps excluded).
Hey Spike is not affiliated with any of these services.
2. Open one and you hear it straight away — and again at 30 seconds, 1, 2 and 3 minutes if you stay.
3. Want it firmer?
• "Send Home after 1 minute" — at one minute you are sent to the Home screen with one more word.
• "+ Keep it closed afterwards" — for the time you choose (15 min, 30 min, 1 h, 4 h, 12 h or 24 h), reopening a chosen app silently sends you back Home. Unblock any app from Home at any time.
That's all the setup there is. No sign-up, no intensity sliders.
■ Nine voices take turns 🎭
Nine voices come free and take turns, one per visit, so the nagging never gets stale. Switch off any voice you don't like.
■ Voice packs (optional)
• The Drill Coach, The Relentless Detective, The Runaway Home-Shopping Host
• ₩1,500 each, or all three for ₩3,300. One-time in-app purchases (not a subscription). Bought voices join the rotation, and "Restore purchases" brings them back on a new phone with the same Google account.
■ Also
• Today's record: opens, time spent and how often you were scolded, plus past history.
• No login. Works offline — every voice is inside the app.
• Choose whether to play in silent/vibrate mode or at zero media volume. It stays quiet during calls and Do Not Disturb.
■ About the Accessibility Service (please read) 🔒
Hey Spike uses Android's Accessibility Service to notice when an app you chose (your delivery apps, plus any app you added) comes to the front.
• What it reads: only the package name of the app in front.
• What it never reads: on-screen text, orders, conversations, what you type or notifications.
• What it does: only if you switch it on, it sends you to the Home screen after a minute and, during the block time you chose, sends you back Home when you reopen the app (Android's standard "go Home" action). Nothing else.
• Your record (the list of opens, time spent and telling-offs) stays on this device for up to 90 days; erase it any time in Settings.
• Anonymous usage statistics without app names (when a visit started and ended and how many seconds it lasted, which sound played, whether you were sent Home, and so on) are sent under a random install ID. You can switch them off on the accessibility disclosure screen and in Settings.
• No microphone recording, no account, no AI processing of your data.
• Switch detection off on the app's main screen, or turn the service off in Android accessibility settings, and it stops at once.
■ Good to know
• "Send Home" takes you to the Home screen. It does not force-close the delivery app.
• Hey Spike is a productivity tool, not a medical or therapeutic product.
Studio Editly
Open a delivery app and a recorded voice scolds you. It can send you Home, too.
