The app that won’t let you doomscroll

A smug eye lives on your iPhone. Open the apps that eat your day and it heckles you out loud. Keep pushing and it shields them shut.

Requires a subscription. The eye is judging you either way.

Heckled out loud Apps shielded shut Locked Hours Runs on your iPhone No account, no tracking

Straight from the phone

The actual app. No stock nonsense.

How it works

Four steps. Then it never shuts up.

  1. 1

    Pick your worst apps

    TikTok, Instagram, X, Reddit, YouTube. The ones you open without deciding to. Stop That watches for them.

  2. 2

    Get heckled

    Out-loud voice clips the moment you open one. Funny the first time. Less funny the third. That’s the point.

  3. 3

    Get shielded

    Keep pushing past the heckle and the app closes. No password, no dialog to argue with. It’s shut.

  4. 4

    See what you clawed back

    Time saved, blocks landed, streaks kept. Proof the eye is annoying for a reason.

Under the hood

Deliberate, never a trap.

Enough friction to make you think twice. Never enough to lock you out for real.

Daily Patience

Choose how much scroll you get

Pick how many minutes of scrolling you get before the shield drops. Or go Instant and the eye pounces the second you open the app.

Locked Hours

Freeze your own settings

Put your rules on a schedule. Tighten during work or bedtime and they can only get stricter, never looser, until the window ends.

Confession to Stop

Turning it off takes effort

Switching enforcement off asks for a short typed confession. Deliberate enough to catch a weak moment. Never impossible.

Stop Everything

You are never trapped

Stop Everything is always there, and it always lets you out. The way out just makes you type for it — a confession stands between you and the exit, but the exit never disappears.

Private by design

It watches you, not the world.

Your apps, your usage, your settings never leave the iPhone. No account to make. No tracking. No data sold to anyone, ever.

Stop That runs on Apple’s Screen Time (Family Controls) on your own device. It is not parental controls, and it never watches anyone else. Only you, judged on your own phone.

  • Everything stays on your iPhone
  • No sign-up, no cloud, no login
  • No analytics on your browsing
  • Nothing sold, nothing shared

Questions, fair enough

Before you let it loose

Does it really block the apps?

Yes. Stop That uses Apple’s Screen Time (Family Controls) to shield the apps you pick. Push past the heckle and the app closes. This is not a reminder you swipe away.

Can I just turn it off when I want to scroll?

You always stop enforcement. Nothing traps you. It takes a short typed confession. Locked Hours freezes your settings on a schedule, so a weak moment doesn’t undo your whole day. Deliberate, never impossible.

Is my data private?

Completely. Your apps, usage and settings never leave your iPhone. There’s no account, no cloud, no tracking, and nothing is ever sold. It uses Screen Time on your own device and never watches anyone else.

What happens if I cancel?

Enforcement stops automatically when your subscription lapses. The shields come down on their own. The eye won’t lock your apps to make you re-subscribe.

Does it work on Android?

iPhone only for now. Stop That is built on Apple’s Screen Time, which doesn’t exist on Android. No timeline to share yet.

Are the heckles going to embarrass me?

They play out loud, so they respect your silent switch and volume like any other sound. Want the shield without the commentary? You can keep the enforcement and turn the voice down. The eye stays judgmental either way.

Last call before you scroll off

Let the eye run your screen time.

It heckles, it shields, and it lives entirely on your iPhone.
