ScrollOff isn't just another app blocker. It's a complete system designed around how real people actually use their phones.
Absolute zero access when you need it most
Sometimes you need the hard line. No-Go Zones work on top of your protected apps to enforce absolute zero access during scheduled times. When the zone ends, your apps stay protected and still require credits to access. No credits work during the zone. No peeks, no exceptions.
Gamify your focus and earn bonus credits
Turn your focus sessions into a game. Set a challenge duration (1-12 hours), complete it without peeking, and earn bonus credits on top of your regular hourly earnings. Track your winning streaks and watch your discipline grow over time.
Scheduled blocking without the pressure
Need structure without the stress? Quiet Hours let you schedule automatic blocking windows using a completely separate app list. Your protected apps and wallet stay untouched. Perfect for work hours, sleep schedules, or focused study sessions. Just block and start on schedule, no credit system involved.
Track your achievements and progress
Celebrate your wins. Milestones track your achievements, completed Focus Challenges, hours protected by No-Go Zones, and overall progress. A new milestone is selected and recorded after 8 hours, with a maximum of 3 milestones per day perfectly spaced throughout 24 hours. See how far you've come and stay motivated to keep going.
Your self-control quantified (0-100)
Get a clear picture of your self-control journey. Progress Score is a 0-100 metric calculated from four key components: Restraint (35%), Discipline (30%), Consistency (20%), and Commitment (15%). Track how your habits improve over time.
If-then plans for when urges hit
Based on the science of implementation intentions, Open Notes let you create pre-planned responses to urges. When you feel the pull to check Instagram, your counter-move is already ready. "If I feel the urge to scroll, then I'll take 3 deep breaths and check my notes."
Instant access when life demands it
Life happens. Sometimes you genuinely need to check an app right now - a friend's emergency, an important DM, checking if someone replied. Emergency Tokens give you instant, one-time access without waiting to earn credits. Use sparingly, but they're there when you need them.
Your earned time doesn't disappear at midnight
With the Free tier, your credits expire at the end of each day. But with Premium and Pro, your unused credits roll over - up to 3 days with Premium, and 7 days with Pro. Save up for a movie night or weekend catch-up session.
Understand your patterns to break them
You can't improve what you don't measure. Usage Insights shows you when you earn, when you spend, and how your habits are changing over time. See your most productive days, identify your weak points, and track your progress.
Protect settings from your impulsive self
Your determined self sets up ScrollOff. But your impulsive self might try to undo everything at 11 PM. Biometric Lock requires Face ID or Touch ID to change settings, add apps to block lists, or disable features. Your future self will thank you.
Prevent impulsive unblocking
In a moment of weakness, you might want to unblock an app just to "quickly check something." Block Cooldown stops that. Once you add an app to your blocked list, there's a mandatory waiting period before you can remove it. Your determined self makes the decision - your impulsive self has to live with it.
Block the web version too, no bypassing
When you block an app like Instagram or TikTok, ScrollOff automatically blocks the matching website (instagram.com, tiktok.com) on Safari. No loopholes, no workarounds. If you block the app, you block the site.
Fresh inspiration every day
Every day, ScrollOff shows you a new motivational quote to keep you focused and remind you why you started. Simple, but effective - a small boost to help you stay on track.
Optional moment of reflection before peeks
Before using your earned credits for a peek, ScrollOff can prompt you with a brief mindfulness exercise. Take a breath, consider if you really want to use your credits, and make an intentional choice rather than an impulsive one.
Your data never leaves your device
ScrollOff processes everything locally using Apple's Screen Time API. We have no servers, no analytics, no tracking. We literally cannot see your data, even if we wanted to. Your usage patterns, your blocked apps, your habits - it all stays on your device.
