ScrollLess: Block Reels Shorts

Do you unlock your phone for a quick minute, only to lose two hours trapped in an endless loop of short videos?

ScrollLess: Block Reels Shorts is the intelligent, mindful solution to break digital addiction and stop doomscrolling for good. Instead of punishing you with rigid phone locks, ScrollLess combines selective feed-only blocking with Sprout—your living digital wellbeing companion that thrives when you stay focused and withers when you binge short videos.

✦ SELECTIVE FEED-ONLY BLOCKING (KEEP YOUR APPS FUNCTIONAL)
Generic screen time blockers shut down entire apps, cutting off important work messages, family chats, and search. ScrollLess works differently:
• Block Instagram Reels: Intercept the addictive short video feed while keeping your Direct Messages (DMs), search, stories, and profile completely accessible.
• Block YouTube Shorts: Eliminate algorithmic short video traps while preserving educational long-form tutorials, lectures, and subscriptions.
• Scheduled Focus Routines: Automate feed blocking during work hours, study sessions, family dinners, or late-night bedtime windows.
• Strict Mode Protection: Prevent impulsive overrides with a 30-second reflection pause that breaks subconscious tap habits.

✦ MEET SPROUT: YOUR LIVING HABIT MASCOT
Traditional app limits feel cold and punitive. ScrollLess replaces mechanical timers with emotional accountability:
• Level 0 (Fresh 🌱): 0–10 reels. Thriving, vibrant, and bursting with life.
• Level 1 (Happy 😊): 11–30 reels. Balanced, joyful, and healthy.
• Level 2 (Tired 😐): 31–60 reels. Drooping slightly from dopamine overload.
• Level 3 (Sad 😟): 61–100 reels. Wilting leaves and needing a digital break.
• Level 4 (Exhausted 😩): 101–200 reels. Weary and drained from overscrolling.
• Level 5 (Totally Rotten 💀): 200+ reels. Critical doomscroll intervention needed!
Every reel you watch directly impacts Sprout's mood in real time.

✦ MINDFUL 5-MINUTE BREAK PASS (NO RELAPSE)
Rigid app locks trigger frustration. ScrollLess provides a mindful middle ground: unlock a 5-minute break pass. Every short video viewed during the break is recorded toward your daily total and degrades Sprout's health, maintaining 100% honesty.

✦ GRANULAR DOPAMINE AUDITS & PEAK INTERVAL ANALYTICS
Understand your unconscious digital habits with clinical clarity:
• 3-Hour Interval Patterns: Pinpoint exact dopamine vulnerability windows (6–9 AM Morning, 12–3 PM Midday, 6–9 PM Evening, 9–12 AM Pre-Sleep).
• Platform Split: Track exact counts and watch time for Instagram Reels vs. YouTube Shorts.
• Reclaimed Time Saved: Compare daily screen time against your 2h 20m baseline to see actual productive hours returned to your life.
• Blocker Protection Audit: Review total overlays triggered, mindful exit success rates, and total scrolls prevented.

✦ HOME SCREEN WIDGETS (PRO)
Track your daily reel counts and check Sprout's mood in real time directly on your home screen launcher without opening an app.

✦ WHO IS SCROLLLESS FOR?
• Students & examinees who need deep study sessions while keeping class group chats open.
• Professionals seeking focus without sacrificing essential Instagram client communication.
• Anyone who wants to break the mindless phone loop, sleep better, and reclaim their peace of mind.

✦ 100% ON-DEVICE PRIVACY & PROMINENT ACCESSIBILITY DISCLOSURE
Your privacy is sacred. ScrollLess operates completely offline:
• No cloud servers, no account registration, and zero data collection.
