Don't Text

Don't Text is not a healing app. It's an impulse interceptor.

When you're about to text your ex at 2am, open Don't Text instead. The app shows you exactly what you're risking—based on your specific situation—then lets you decide.

This app does not help you feel better. It helps you act better.

HOW IT WORKS:

1. You feel the urge to text your ex
2. Open Don't Text and tap "I want to text them"
3. Read through 4 reality checks:
• Reality – What's actually happening
• Impact – What texting will cost you
• Rule – A principle to remember
• Choice – The final reminder
4. Choose: WAIT or Act Anyway
5. Your decision is logged

THIS APP DOES NOT:
• Tell you everything will be okay
• Help you "process your feelings"
• Offer comfort or validation
• Pretend texting them might work out
• Block anyone or read your messages
• Access your contacts or SMS

THIS APP DOES:
• Show you consequences before you act
• Track how many days since your breakup
• Count your consecutive WAIT decisions
• Give different advice based on your goal
• Consider time of day, patterns, and context

3 GOALS TO CHOOSE FROM:

• Reconnect – You want them back. The app focuses on strategic silence and not appearing desperate.
• Protect Self – You're done. The app reinforces boundaries and reminds you why you ended it.
• Unsure – Still figuring it out. The app encourages patience and clarity before action.

CONTEXT-AWARE MESSAGES:

The app generates different messages based on 11 factors:
• Days since breakup (acute, early, established, extended)
• Time of day (late night impulses are treated differently)
• Your recent decision pattern
• How many times you've opened the app today
• Whether they contacted you first
• Days since your last contact
• Your WAIT streak
• Your stated goal
• Goal stability (how often you've changed it)
• Special dates (Valentine's, Christmas, holidays)
• Your impulse frequency

No two intercepts are exactly the same.

WHY THIS EXISTS:

Because "just don't text them" doesn't work. Especially at 2am. Especially when you're emotional. Especially after a few drinks.

You need friction between impulse and action.
You need a pause.
You need to see what you're about to lose—before you lose it.

Silence is leverage. Use it.

PRIVACY:
• All data stored locally on your device
• No account required
• No message access
• No contact access
• We don't know who your ex is
