Scroll Reroute notices when you’ve been lost in the feed too long — then offers a better loop out: a quick puzzle, a small sketch, a two-minute workout, or a call to someone you love. It’s a digital wellbeing app that helps you stop doomscrolling and loosen phone addiction — without relying on willpower.
✳️ We’ll add you to the tester list and email your install instructions. No spam, ever.
The feed is designed to never end.
Your evening wasn’t.
How it works
No blunt blocking, no shame. Just a well-timed nudge that helps you stop scrolling — with a genuinely better option than the next post.
Pick the apps to watch and how long is too long — 15, 25, 45 minutes, or your own number.
Quietly, on your device. When you cross your limit mid-scroll, Scroll Reroute appears.
Choose a detour and do it. Or snooze five minutes — you decide how firm to be with yourself.
Four ways out
You scroll to meet a need — novelty, a break, connection. Each detour is a healthy alternative to scrolling that meets the same need, better — the reason doom scrolling loses its grip.
A quick pattern, memory, slide or word game. The same little hit of focus the feed fakes — earned.
Trace a guided drawing step by step, or go freehand. Two calm minutes with your hands.
Jumping jacks, a plank, a jog in place — timed or by reps, with a little chime when you finish.
A real voice beats an infinite feed. We’ll even give you something worth saying.
Simple pricing
Your whole first day is on us — no card needed. Keep your streak going after that.
The Android app is in invite-only testing. Google will only let you install it if your email is on our approved tester list — so it works in two steps, in this order:
1. Add your email on this site first (button below). We add you to the tester list and
email you to confirm.
2. Then open Google Play and install — signing in with the same email you gave us.
⚠️ The Google Play link won’t work until we’ve added your email. If you tap it before joining — or sign in with a different Google account — Google will show an error or an “item not available” page. Add your email first, then give us a little time to approve you.
Questions
Scroll Reroute is an Android app that helps you stop doomscrolling. When you’ve spent too long in a feed like Instagram, TikTok, or Reddit, it steps in and offers a better loop out: a quick puzzle, a sketch, a two-minute workout, or a call to someone you love.
You set a time limit for the apps you want to watch. When you cross it mid-scroll, Scroll Reroute notices on your device and offers a short, satisfying detour instead of the next post — so you get a real off-ramp from the feed.
Most screen-time apps just block your feed or add a pause. Scroll Reroute doesn’t only stop you — it reroutes you to a replacement activity that meets the same need, so the craving actually goes somewhere instead of building up.
Instead of scrolling, Scroll Reroute hands you a quick, satisfying alternative in the moment: solve a short puzzle, sketch something, do a two-minute workout, or call someone you love. They’re small replacements for doomscrolling that meet the same need the feed was faking.
Your first 24 hours are free with everything unlocked and no card required. After that it’s $5.99 per month or $49.99 per year.
