ReelBrake

Take back control of your time and focus with ReelBrake — the mindful screen time intervention app designed to break short-form video and social media doomscrolling habits. Instead of hard, frustrating app blocks that lead to bypass frustration, ReelBrake introduces a gentle, scientifically proven friction technique: the Mindful Breathing Pause. When you open a distracting app, ReelBrake places a short, soothing breathing exercise over your screen, giving your brain the conscious pause it needs to break impulsive scrolling triggers. ✨ KEY FEATURES ✨ 🌿 Mindful Breathing Pauses Interrupt automatic scrolling habits. A calm, visual breathing circle guides you through a 10-second conscious pause before granting access to distracting apps. 🛡️ Custom App Shielding Select any short-form video platform, social media app, or mobile game installed on your phone. Tailor your shield list to target your specific digital distractions. 🔥 Streak & Habit Tracking Build your daily streak of conscious choices. Track your progress day-by-day and celebrate your growing self-mastery over digital distractions. 🔒 Security & Friction PIN Lock Protect your focus commitment. Optional PIN lock friction prevents impulsive settings changes or premature unshielding during moments of weakness. 🔒 100% PRIVATE & ON-DEVICE 🔒 Your privacy is fundamental: • Zero Account Required: Start using ReelBrake instantly without sign-up or email. • Zero Data Collection: ReelBrake runs 100% on your device.
