Look Up, Silly!

Break the Scroll Habit with Mindful Challenges

How It Works

Choose which apps to block. Before you can open them, complete a quick mental challenge. This simple friction creates a moment of awareness, helping you decide if you really need that app right now. It's not about restriction—it's about intention.

Five Unique Challenges

Path Recall—remember and trace a pattern. Color Tap—match colors, not words (Stroop effect). Quick Math—solve simple arithmetic. Tic-Tac-Toe—beat the AI. Micro 2048—complete a mini puzzle. Each challenge takes just seconds but creates the pause you need.

Powerful Features

Block any app using the Screen Time API. Set "Always Allowed" exceptions for essential apps. Pause challenges when you need a break. Schedule blocking times for focus periods. Track your challenge statistics and streaks. Customize unlock duration. Works completely offline.

Why Challenges Work

Research shows that adding friction to automatic behaviors helps build awareness. Instead of mindlessly opening an app, you take a breath, engage your brain, and make a conscious choice. Many users report less time on distracting apps, more awareness of their phone habits, and feeling more in control.
