Descroll

How do you want to spend your time?

With the rise of social media, and the meteoric rise of short form video, it has become easier and easier to spend each moment of your life looking down on your phone.

There have been studies on the impact of excessive scrolling, and more recent studies on the impact of short form video on attention and mood. But I don’t really need to quote them here because both you and I can feel it. After an hour of scrolling on your phone you can feel it. The feeling of despair, isolation, and frustration that the hour you just spent was an hour that was wasted. And the inexplicable desire to immediately unlock your phone and do it again.

The reality is that the odds are stacked against you. Some of the smartest minds of our generation are paid obscene amounts of money to keep you spending more time scrolling.

With the recent advances of AI, this is only going to get worse. We will soon get to the point where each point of content is perfectly created just for you to keep you perfectly addicted.

Descroll is meant to give you a fighting chance against these behemoths that are coming for every second of your free time. It’s to help you achieve the things you want in life. And it's a way to reclaim your time.

FEATURES

In-Depth Screen Time Stats

Get daily and weekly reports that break down exactly where your time goes — including total time spent on distracting apps, focus and sleep scores, and trends over time. See which apps drain your attention most, track historical patterns, and track progress as your distracted time goes down week after week.


Goal Setting

Set a daily or weekly goal for how much screen time you want to allow — then hold yourself accountable. Whether you’re aiming to cut down on social media, reduce late-night scrolling, or just be more intentional with your screen time, Descroll helps you track your goals and stay on target.

Streaks

Consistency builds momentum. Each day you stay under your distracted-time goal, your streak grows — motivating you to keep going. Watch your streak climb as you reclaim more time for what matters most.

Compete with Friends

Stay motivated with a little friendly competition. See your friends’ daily and weekly distracted-time stats and compete for who can stay focused the longest. Whether it’s your study group or your team at work, Descroll makes building better screen habits social and fun.

Hard Mode

Need to lock in? Turn on Hard Mode. While it’s active, Descroll blocks all distracting apps completely — no skips, no loopholes. Perfect for finals week, deep work sessions, or any time you need total focus.

Sleep Schedule

Get better rest by disconnecting before bed. Descroll can automatically block distracting apps starting an hour before your set bedtime, helping you wind down, avoid late-night scrolling, and wake up feeling refreshed.

Interventions

When you reach for a distracting app, Descroll gives your brain something better to do. Choose from a set of interventions that interrupt autopilot scrolling and build healthier habits, including:
• Mindfulness: Practice mindfulness exercises like journaling and checking in with your body
• Learn Something New: Learn something new about history, science, technology, and more.
• Mental Math: Solve three quick mental math problems to wake up your focus.

Note that some of these features mentioned above require a subscription, but the core functionality of restricting addicting apps works on the free plan.
