Many appreciate its diverse content and ease of use. However, most of the app's best features are locked behind paywalls, and the credit system limits how many plans users can pursue at a time. Users are frequently confronted with aggressive ads and paywall prompts, which detract from the experience for those unable or unwilling to pay. Some also desire more customization options and report occasional bugs. Overall, it shows promise but needs refinement in accessibility and feature flexibility. ### Pros - Helps users reduce mindless scrolling and unproductive screen time. - Provides a wide variety of hobbies and topics to explore, appealing to diverse interests. - Offers personalized plans and goals that help users achieve their hobbies in a structured way. - User-friendly interface that is simple and intuitive to navigate. - Encourages self-improvement and focus on one's interests and curiosity. ### Cons - Most content is locked behind a paywall, making the free version very limited. - The app uses a credit or subscription system that restricts how many plans or activities can be pursued at once, frustrating some users. - Users are frequently bombarded with ads and prompts to purchase premium, sometimes immediately after opening the app. - Lack of features such as editing or customizing plans and having multiple active plans simultaneously. - Some technical issues such as credit increments not working properly and ad loops preventing app use. ## Similar extensions and apps - [Scroll Less: Live More!](https://chrome-stats.com/d/in.scrollless.android) — 84 users - [Pause and Unscroll](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.pauseandunscroll) — 28 users - [Stop Scrolling: Unscrl](https://chrome-stats.com/d/app.unscrl.android) — 193 users - [ScrollFit: Push Ups to Scroll](https://chrome-stats.com/d/io.texense.wellbeing) — 149 users - [Unskroll](https://chrome-stats.com/d/app.unscroll.mobile) — 152 users - [Scrolly](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.scrolly) — 9,697 users, 4.80 / 5 - [ScrollDetox: Reels Blocker PRO](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.tusulabs.scrolldetox) — 159 users - [20 Minute: Screen Time & Focus](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.twentyminute.app) — 433 users - [Scroll Lock: Block Distraction](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.threedevbros.scrolllock) — 6,249 users, 4.67 / 5 - [EarnScroll: Reduce Screen Time](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.psycoders.earnscroll) — 146 users - [Quit Scrolling](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.app.quitscrolling) — 22 users - [MeditWait: Screen Time Detox](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.meditwait.app) — 23 users --- Source: [Chrome-Stats](https://chrome-stats.com/d/com.curiosityquench)
