Pawse: Cat Screen Time Break Android

Pawse: Cat Screen Time Break

Track global screen time. When you scroll too long, a cat forces your break.

Overview

Features & Capabilities

🐱 A CAT FORCES YOUR BREAKS

Pawse is a screen-time gatekeeper for Android. Set how long you can scroll, and when your global phone time hits the limit, a cat takes over your screen until the break ends. Simple, playful, and effective.

No account. No cloud tracking. Your settings stay on your device.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

✨ WHY PAWSE?

Most screen-time apps nag you with notifications you can ignore. Pawse blocks the scroll with a full-screen cat overlay — you literally cannot keep scrolling until your break timer finishes.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🎯 FEATURES

⏱ GLOBAL SCREEN TIME TRACKING
Pawse reads total foreground screen time across your whole phone — not just one app. A progress ring shows how close you are to your limit.

🐾 CAT BREAK OVERLAY
When time is up, your cat appears full-screen on top of every app. The overlay stays until your break ends. No dismiss button. No cheating.

⚙️ CUSTOM TIMERS (PREMIUM)
Adjust how many minutes you get before the cat arrives, and how long each break lasts. Free tier includes sensible defaults to try Pawse first.

🐱 CHOOSE YOUR CAT
Pick from bundled cats. Premium unlocks extra cats and lets you upload a photo of your own cat as the break buddy.

🔒 ON-DEVICE PRIVACY
No login required. Timer settings, selected cat, and custom uploads are stored locally on your phone. Screen time data is processed on-device — not uploaded to our servers.

📱 SIMPLE SETUP
Grant two Android permissions once:
• Usage Access — counts global screen time
• Display over other apps — shows the cat overlay during breaks

Then tap Start Pawse and go about your day.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🎯 PERFECT FOR

• Doomscrollers who need a hard stop, not another reminder
• Students and remote workers building healthier phone habits
• Parents setting scroll limits for themselves
• Anyone who responds better to playful accountability than guilt
• Cat people who want digital wellbeing with personality

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
