Guilt Trip

Set a time budget for Instagram, YouTube, TikTok — the works. When you scroll past the limit, a Judgy character pops up and roasts you until you close the app. You picked the app. You picked the timer. Judgy character just keeps the promise you made to yourself. ━━━ HOW IT WORKS ━━━ 1. Pick which social apps to monitor. Default: 12 of the usual suspects. 2. Set a time budget per app. 1 seconds to 60 minutes, your call. 3. Open Instagram / TikTok / YouTube / whatever. Scroll away. 4. When your timer runs out, Judgy Cat appears. Tap "Fine, I'll close it" to head back to your home screen — or "5 more minutes" if the guilt isn't landing yet. ━━━ WHAT WE MONITOR (PHASE 1) ━━━ - Instagram - YouTube (including Shorts) - TikTok (all regional variants) - Facebook & Facebook Lite - X / Twitter - Snapchat - Reddit - Pinterest - Threads - ShareChat - Moj - Chingari That's the complete list. We don't scan your other installed apps — we can't, and we're not asking for permission to. ━━━ WHAT WE ACTUALLY SEE ━━━ Guilt Trip needs one Android permission called "Usage access" to know which app is on top of your screen. That's it. We see: ✓ Which app you're currently in ✓ How long you've been in it We do NOT see: ✗ Anything you scroll, type, watch, or post ✗ Messages, photos, contacts, or calendar ✗ Your location or network activity Nothing leaves your phone. There's no account, no login, no cloud sync. No analytics. No ads. Ever. Full data safety details are on the Data Safety tab. ━━━ FOR XIAOMI / MIUI USERS ━━━ On some Xiaomi devices, the system "Display over other apps" toggle doesn't fully disable Guilt Trip's overlay — that's a Xiaomi behavior, separate from us. The master switch inside the app always works. Guilt Trip's Settings screen explains this in more detail. ━━━ WHY A CAT ━━━ Because a wagging finger is annoying, and a Judgy cat is (a little) funny. Different personas — are in the pipeline for later releases. ━━━ WHAT GUILT TRIP IS NOT ━━━ - Not a therapy app. Not a mental-health tool. Not a substitute for professional help. - Not a hard blocker. If you really want to keep scrolling, you can. We just make sure you're doing it deliberately. - Not for kids. This is a self-motivation tool. Built by one person. Feedback welcome.
