Don't Scroll: App Blocker App-Analysen für 25. Juli

Trying to sleep, but somehow it's 2 AM and you're still scrolling through YouTube, Shorts, Reels, Instagram, and TikTok? Don't Scroll is a gentle bedtime app blocker that helps you stop doomscrolling through social media before sleep. Instead of locking your phone completely, it puts a calm pause between you and the apps you choose — just long enough to break the late-night scroll that keeps you awake. Short, addictive content like YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and TikTok makes it easy to watch "just one more." Don't Scroll steps in at that exact moment, so you can cut your screen time before bed and focus on winding down instead. [ How it works ] When your bedtime starts, the apps you choose won't open right away. To open one, you first start a 3-minute sleep mode. Listen to calming sleep sounds for 3 minutes and give yourself time to wind down. After that, you get 2 minutes to use the app if you still need it. Most nights, that small pause is enough to help you put the phone down. [ Key features ] ■ Bedtime app lock Lock apps and limit screen time automatically at your set bedtime. ■ App selection Pick the apps that keep you up at night, like YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok. ■ 3-min sleep mode Take a short break with calming sleep sounds before opening a blocked app. ■ 2-min app access If you really need the app, you can still use it after the 3-minute pause. ■ Floating timer See the time remaining quietly on your screen while sleep mode runs. ■ Usage log Track your late-night screen time and watch your bedtime scrolling shrink night after night. [ Not a hard block. Just a pause. ] Don't Scroll doesn't lock you out of your phone. If you really need an app, you can still open it after a short pause. But that pause is exactly what breaks doomscrolling — and makes sleep the easier choice. Whether it's YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikTok videos, endless social media feeds, or just "one more video," Don't Scroll helps you step out of the loop before sleep. [ Who it's for ] - People who keep watching YouTube Shorts before bed - Anyone who stays up late on Instagram Reels or TikTok - People who want to stop mindless scrolling at night - Anyone who prefers gentle habit-building over a hard app blocker - People who want less screen time before sleep - Anyone who only wants to block certain apps at bedtime [ Accessibility permission ] Don't Scroll uses Android's Accessibility Service to detect which app is currently open, so it can show the block screen when you open an app you chose to limit during your lock hours. It reads only the name (package name) of the app on screen — it never reads, records, or collects your screen content, your messages, or what you type, and nothing is sent off your device. Less screen time before bed. A calmer night. A better chance to sleep well, starting tonight. Stop scrolling before bed with Don't Scroll.
