We've all been there: you open Instagram to check a message from a friend but end up wasting an hour watching videos of alpacas. Before you can open addictive apps, SpeedBump asks you how long you want to use them. The longer you choose, the longer the delay. Once time's up, it annoys you out with rain, dancing cats, and more β helping you stay intentional and accountable.
What to expect from an ideal product
- Forces you to set a time limit before opening any addictive app
- Creates a delay between wanting to use an app and actually using it
- Sends playful reminders when your chosen time is up
- Makes mindless scrolling less appealing with intentional friction
- Uses fun distractions like dancing cats to break your focus on social media
