What if you had to finish your task before you could scroll? πŸŽ―πŸ“±

One of the features we've built into AntiRot is To-Do Friction Block.

The idea is simple:

You decide what you need to get done first.

Then you block the distracting app.

When you try to open it, AntiRot doesn't simply tell you β€œNo.”

Instead, you're reminded of the task you said you wanted to complete.

Finish the task β†’ unlock the distraction.

It's a small change, but it tackles something we noticed while building AntiRot:

Most of us don't necessarily need another warning about screen time. We need a moment that interrupts the automatic decision to open an app.

The To-Do Friction Block turns that moment into:

β€œWhat were you supposed to be doing?”

Whether that's finishing a report, studying for 30 minutes, cleaning your room, going for a walk, or just getting through one important task.

We're trying to make distraction require a little more intention.

Would you use something like this, or would you find it too annoying? πŸ˜…

We're building AntiRot to help make your phone work for your attention, rather than constantly compete for it.
