Description
Pause with intention - then unlock your apps
Before You Scroll adds a mindful pause between impulse and action. Instead of instantly opening distracting apps, you're invited to reflect for a moment with a short quote tailored to your current mood.
Once you've taken that pause, your apps unlock - helping you stay intentional with your time, attention, and habits.
How it works:
1. Choose how you're feeling - struggling, down, okay, good, or great
2. Receive a short, thoughtful quote aligned with your mood
3. Reflect briefly, then unlock your selected apps
It's a simple moment of awareness before you scroll.
