Fluid Friction: Stop Scrolling

Mindless scrolling stops working with Fluid Friction. Open Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, X, Reddit or Snapchat and fluid rises from the edge of the screen and pushes back against your thumb. Drag through it until a bubble forms and rises off the screen. Only then does the feed move. No willpower, no nagging. The friction does the work. It doesn't block you. It just makes you mean it. 🌊 WHY IT WORKS Infinite feeds are built to run on autopilot. Fluid Friction slips one deliberate moment between you and the scroll, so doomscrolling becomes a decision instead of a reflex. Dial the resistance from gentle to intense, and set a daily scroll limit per app. Mindful scrolling that reduces screen time without deleting the apps you use. 🚫 BLOCK REELS, SHORTS & FOR YOU, NOT JUST WHOLE APPS Keep your DMs; kill the rabbit hole. Fluid Friction can block Reels, block Shorts, and block TikTok's For You feed, plus Facebook Reels and Snapchat Spotlight. Or block whole apps with daily limits, intervention challenges and Pomodoro focus sessions: a precise app blocker and distraction blocker. ♿ HOW FLUID FRICTION USES THE ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE API Fluid Friction uses Android's AccessibilityService API to power its core scroll friction and feed blocking. With your permission, it reads on-screen structure to tell when you scroll a feed in apps you choose, then applies the friction and limits you set. It reads UI structure only, never your messages, passwords or content, and nothing you view leaves your device. You enable it during setup and can turn it off anytime in Android Settings. 🔒 FREE FOREVER. PRIVATE BY DESIGN. Every tool is free forever. Fluid Pro is an optional subscription: cosmetics and unlimited cloud AI. It works offline, needs no account, and is private: no ads, and the AI coach runs on-device by default. ⚡ FOCUS THAT TURNS ITSELF ON - NFC focus profiles: tap any tag, card or sticker you own. No hardware to buy. - Wi-Fi spatial profiles: location based blocking, tighter at the library or office, relaxed at home. - Smart Friction: firmer in the morning, lighter after dinner. 🤖 AN AI THAT HANDS YOU THE NEXT MOVE Most apps give you a chart. Fluid Friction gives you a screen time plan. Screen-time heatmaps and an on-device behavioral engine learn your peak-risk hours and doom-spiral triggers. Your AI coach writes a private screen time report, then turns it into one-tap tailored tools: block an app, add friction, schedule a focus block. Nine coach personalities nudge you at your real moment of risk. 🌙 WIND DOWN AND SLEEP A bedtime wind-down eases distractions out of reach, with a full-screen alarm you dismiss by tapping an NFC tag across the room, and a Notification Center that batches noisy alerts. 🤝 FOCUS WITH FRIENDS Healthy habits, a little competitive.
