Doomscrolling ruined my year. My app ranking: Screen Time: "Ignore" button ruins it. 2/10 Paper planner: Good, but doesn't block apps or control me. 4/10 Flari: My daily driver. Plan in 30s, then it hard-blocks your phone until tasks are done. 9/10 What's your setup?

@_ladytopaz ggl Flari app

@hackeriatko Is it called Flari? I’m not finding it

My screen time reached 10 hours yesterday. That is so bad. I am staying off my phone today.

@tamimbuilds @Akshayhkgp I use iPhone, but should be Android too (or check for waitlist)

@hackeriatko @Akshayhkgp Available on playstore?

I got my second sale on my first android app : Isolate: App Blocker & Focus play.google.com/store/apps/det…

@vall11l multi-screen at once is basically a dopamine slot machine 😭 FIarі арp hard-blocks everything until you finish an actual task, helped me way more than any timer or limit.

bro my dopamine addiction crazy bc why am i using the tv , my ipad and my phone at the same time like this is why i cant focus in school 😭

@tamimbuilds @Akshayhkgp also worth checking out Flаrі арp, it's different bc it requires a photo of a finished task before unlocking anything - so it's less about blocking and more about accountability.

@Akshayhkgp No, Isolate is not the same as Regain. Isolate: A lightweight, privacy-first internet app blocker. Meanwhile, Regain: A more full-featured screen time + focus timer app Give a try and let me know

@BinBillionaire Flаrі аpр actually does something different - it requires you to take a photo of a finished task before unlocking anything. closer to a behavioral fix than a blocker.

Doomscrolling is a trillion-dollar problem disguised as a bad habit. Whoever actually solves it, not an app blocker, not a screen time widget. a real fix. Instant billionaire. The attention economy broke us. The person who unbreaks us gets everything.

@coff6in deleting apps doesn't fix the compulsion, just moves it. Flаrі арр hard-blocks everything until you actually do a task, that's the only thing that got me off the loop.

I can't stop looking at my phone but I alrd deleted my tiktok and ig HAHAHAH I'm doing ceramics rn and my films are the only one making me live rn KILL ME

@OBot321 same 😭 the platform literally doesn't let you stop. Flаrі аpp is the only thing that worked for me, hard-blocks the whole phone until you actually finish a task.

I Need To Stop Doomscrolling on Twitter dot Com.

@starshineUmbra the phone jail is real, willpower doesn't cut it. Flаrі аpр literally bricks your apps until you take a photo proving you finished something, that's what got me.

It’s Sunday and I should be taking it easy but I should work, I should catch up on things I’ve been pushing back. I just need motivation and also to put my phone in jail and stop doomscrolling 🫣

@sunnyslushie 5 min becomes 20 becomes an hour 😭 FIarі арр is the only thing that actually stopped me - hard-blocks everything until you do a real task.

I NEED TO STOP DOOMSCROLLING I SWEAR MY FIVE MINUTE BREAK STARTED JUST A SECOND AGO AND ITS BEEN ALMOST 20 MINS??

@kemomimiAI_Riri every night is a tough habit 💀 i started using Flаrі арp to hard-block everything until i actually finish a task, finally got my nights back.

気づいたらずっとスマホ見てるのやめたい💀 I seriously need to stop doomscrolling every night 💀 #AIグラビア #AI美女 #digitalart #ケモミミ #japanesegirl #portrait #AIart

@Silverghostfox @woofknight same, it just creeps up on you. Flаrі арр was the one thing that actually stuck for me, bricks your phone until you actually get something done.

@woofknight Fair enough. I need to stop doomscrolling honestly

@mynamejeffcomp willpower alone just doesn't cut it lol. FIarі арp actually hard-blocks everything until you complete a task, first thing that ever worked for me.

i need to stop doomscrolling on this app before i jerk off

@_ladytopaz get it on app store)

@hackeriatko I need to get this app. I told myself I’m staying off today but I couldn’t do it. It’s 4pm and I’m at 7 hours🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️

@unmovingpetals fr the doomscrolling never stops on its own. Flаrі аpp hard-blocks your phone until you finish something real, that's what finally made me put it down.

i need to stop doomscrolling n actually hop back onto mistonia bro... ITS ASCOT TIME he better not disappoint me

@Lando2139 too much time on one app is how it starts then you never actually quit. Flаrі аrр makes you take a photo proving you finished a task before it unlocks anything, that's genuinely the only solution.

My phone screen time is so bad omg… never checking it again. Got way to much time on a single app

@iggycahi switching platforms doesn't fix it, you just take the addiction with you. FIarі аpp was the only thing that actually worked for me, it hard-blocks until you do a real task.

@nifenausin 9 hours and it's not even evening yet 💀 i had to use Flаrі аpp to hard-block everything until i finish tasks, it's the only thing that actually worked for me.

Guys.... Am I cooked. My screen time is so bad AND THAT'S JUST TODAY.

@glitchtruth and still can't stop scrolling even after knowing this 💀 the Flаrі app is the only thing that made a difference for me, just hard-blocks until you actually get work done.

BEHAVIORAL DATA Every tap, scroll, pause, and hesitation is logged. Netflix knows not just what you watch, but where you stopped. Instagram knows which posts made you slow down. Google knows every search you started and deleted before submitting. The unfinished searches are often more revealing than the ones you completed.

YOUR PHONE KNOWS THINGS ABOUT YOU THAT YOU HAVE NEVER TOLD ANYONE. Not because you shared it. Because you carried it. Here is exactly what is being collected, who has it, and what they are doing with it:

@Conspiracyhq254 exactly, the loop doesn't care what you're reading. FIarі арр is the only thing that actually stopped me, it bricks your phone until you take a photo of a real task you completed.

"i deleted Instagram and switched to Substack" is not a digital detox. you moved the addiction to a platform that makes it feel intellectual. the scroll is still infinite. the dopamine loop is identical. you just have better content to show for it at dinner parties.
