Hey everyone, Dopamine Tax is my very first Android app. I wanted to run a small experiment and test a simple concept: what if we fight wasted screen time using money as our main motivator? Most blockers rely on standard popups that are too easy to ignore, or completely brick your phone so you can't access critical tools in an emergency. I wanted a more realistic approach. Instead of completely blocking you, Dopamine Tax gives you two levels of control: a soft warning mode (a 10-second roast to test your awareness during doomscrolling) and a strict lock mode that closes the app. If you genuinely need an app for an emergency, you can always go into Dopamine Tax and adjust your limit — because you're not fighting the blocker, you're looking at your own choices. To make those choices clear, the app uses your subscription value to convert every wasted minute into a live dashboard of actual money burned. What's inside: * Financial Motivation: A live dashboard converting time lost to doomscrolling into actual money lost * Two Blocking Modes: Soft roasts for self-awareness or strict app locks * Intentional Control: Flexibility to adjust limits when truly needed, while keeping full visibility on the cost * Clean & Ad-Free: Zero intrusive ads, no clutter, zero bloatware * Global Support: Fully localized in English, German, French, Japanese, Korean, Portuguese, and 6 other languages Since this is my first release, I'm really curious to hear your thoughts. Does this combination of financial awareness and flexible control resonate with you? I'd appreciate any honest feedback or critique!
