ScrollCop: Block Apps & Focus

Every app blocker has an off switch. At 11 p.m. you will find it. ScrollCop is a friendly cop for your phone: you decide, before the urge, who gets to let your apps out.

BLOCK APPS IN TWO TAPS
Tap the apps that eat your time: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, X, or any app on your phone, plus whole categories and websites. Pick how long. They won't open until time's up. It runs on Apple's Screen Time, so it holds even if you close ScrollCop. Try to open one and you get pulled over.

Or flip it: block everything except the few apps you keep.

YOU CHOOSE WHO CAN END IT EARLY
Pick who holds the key, with one tap:
• Me: end it whenever you want, after a ten-second pause.
• Nobody: not even you. It opens when time's up.
• A friend: ScrollCop texts them a one-time PIN, and only that PIN ends it. They don't need the app.
• A key at home: a code on your fridge or an NFC sticker. You have to get up and go to it.
• Walk it off: 1,000 real steps end the block.

The lock other apps sell as Pro is free here, and a friend can hold it. Locks hold even if you change the date or time, and ScrollCop can't be deleted while a locked block runs.

BLOCK WITH A FRIEND
Phones down together. Send a link, and your friend taps to join on their own phone with their own apps. No account, no server.

SCHEDULES AND DAILY LIMITS
Block apps at the same time every day, even with ScrollCop closed. Give each schedule its own apps: games during study time, social apps at dinner, everything at bedtime. Or set a daily limit: about 30 minutes of an app, then it closes until tomorrow. Start from Bedtime, Mornings, Work hours, Study time or Dinner, or make your own, and see your whole week at a glance.

WIDGETS, SIRI AND CONTROL CENTER
See the time left, your clean days and how the cop is doing right on your Lock Screen. Start a block with one tap from a widget, Control Center or Siri, or let a Shortcut start one when you get to work.

A COP WHO RANKS UP
Every block you finish is a case, stamped CASE CLOSED. Your cop climbs from Rookie to Chief, and the rank never goes down. Earn new app icons along the way. Over 5,000 short, original lines turn up around the app: jokes and pep talks, all on your side.

WHEN THE URGE HITS
Tap "I feel the urge" and ScrollCop asks what you actually need: bored, stressed, tired, lonely, avoiding something. You get one small thing to do instead. Decide your plan once, and it shows up on the screen a blocked app opens to. There are 165 small things to do, picked for the time you have. The Boredom Gym trains the opposite of scrolling: sitting with nothing, thirty seconds first, then longer.

YOUR WEEK AS A CITY
Your last 7 days as a little city at night, the time you got back shown as books, walks and nights of sleep, and a case file you can share. Need a day off? Your run can wait. Counted on your phone. A slip is data, not failure. No guilt notifications.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No server. No ads, no analytics, no subscription. Apple's Screen Time gives ScrollCop opaque tokens, so it can't see which apps you use. Export or delete everything whenever you like.

Every feature is free. Optional tips only say thanks. Made in Canada. A behavior-change tool, not medical advice.
