You're going to doomscroll anyway. Liber makes you read first. One idea. Then scroll. Fair deal — and it actually sticks.
LIBER
Doom-scroll less. Know more. The deal is simple.
Every time you try to open a blocked app — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Snapchat, X — Liber shows you a summary from a world-class book. Finish reading, answer a quick quiz, and earn your screen time. That's it.
No willpower required. No cold turkey. Just one idea before every scroll session.
Do that a few times a day and you could read the equivalent of 50+ books a year — without changing your life.
WHY IT WORKS WHEN EVERYTHING ELSE DOESN'T
Other screen time apps try to stop you. You override them in seconds. Liber doesn't fight your habits — it taxes them. You still get your apps. You just have to grow a little first.
The friction is the feature.
WHAT YOU'LL READ
AI-crafted summaries from books that actually change how you think — Atomic Habits, Deep Work, Zero to One, The Psychology of Money, Thinking, Fast and Slow, Good to Great, and hundreds more.
Each summary is written to capture the single most valuable ideas from the book — punchy, accurate, and readable in under 60 seconds.
Prefer your own books? Liber also lets you upload EPUB files and read summaries generated from your personal library, so every unlock session can be powered by books you already own.
New titles are added every week across productivity, finance, science, philosophy, psychology, and leadership.
