ScrollCheckpoint steps in when you try to open a social app, so you don't have to remember to use it first. Set a short Scroll Alarm, start scrolling, and when time's up, complete a quick checkpoint before deciding whether to continue. Turn an automatic scroll into a moment to pause, learn and reset.

What to expect from an ideal product
- ScrollCheckpoint lets you set a scroll alarm before opening Instagram, TikTok, or Twitter so you never fall into a feed without deciding to first.
- Instead of blocking apps entirely, it adds a timed checkpoint between you and the scroll, a quiz, a stretch, a mood check, your call what fits.
- Works for people who want to cut screen time but still use social media, no cold turkey, just a built-in pause that puts you back in control.
- When the scroll alarm goes off, you get a quick prompt that breaks the autopilot loop and makes you choose whether the next scroll session is actually worth it.
- Pairs well with digital wellness habits like focus timers or phone-free mornings because it targets the specific moment most screen time habits break down, the mindless open.
