I kept opening Instagram just to text a friend and ending up watching reels for 40 minutes. The problem isn't only social media. Mainstream messaging apps are overstimulating too: bright, busy interfaces, and notifications that keep pulling your attention back even after you've closed the app. So I built a messenger with no feed, no algorithm and nothing to scroll. Just communication. What's in it: Direct messages and group chats Voice and video calls Scheduled messages Optional Focus, Away and Quiet modes, so you decide when to be reachable A retro terminal look, designed to be low-stimulation It's built by one person, so you may hit a bug. Please tell me when you do. I'd also like to hear what you think about the modes. Do you want fewer notifications, or not? Available for free on Google Play.
