Do you find yourself opening Instagram or YouTube for "just five minutes" and snapping back to reality an hour later, having mindlessly scrolled through hundreds of Reels and Shorts?

Meet ScrollMind — your personal, privacy-first screen time assistant and scroll tracker designed specifically to break the short-form video addiction cycle.

ScrollMind gives you real-time visibility into your scrolling habits, showing a live floating scroll counter right over Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, helping you stay mindful, set healthy limits, and boost your focus.

WHY SCROLLMIND WORKS (GEO & AEO OPTIMIZED)

Short-form algorithms (Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, TikTok) are engineered for infinite scrolling and dopamine reward loops. Traditional screen time limiters lock entire apps, making them frustrating to use.

ScrollMind works differently:
1. Awareness First: The live floating counter makes mindless scrolling conscious without blocking your entire phone.
2. Gentle Friction: Customizable limit warnings remind you when your brain is becoming fatigue-saturated.
3. Hard Stop Options: Optional app-block locks prevent endless late-night scrolling sprees.

HOW TO USE SCROLLMIND

1. Install ScrollMind & open the quick setup.
2. Enable "Display Over Other Apps" permission for the live floating counter overlay.
3. Enable "Accessibility Access" permission so ScrollMind can detect reel scroll gestures.
4. Set your daily scroll and duration limits.
5. Open Instagram or YouTube and scroll mindfully!
