Scroll Debt

Stop doomscrolling, and track it & repay the time spent

Instead of punishing you or spying on you, it turns your doomscrolling into a “time debt” you owe to your future self – and then helps you actively repay it. What’s different: - Manual on purpose, not by accident - From guilt to a clear “debt” number - Real-life missions instead of just charts - Tiny, privacy-first, opinionated make it harder to lie to yourself about how much you scroll, and a bit easier to do something about it.

Hey Product Hunt! I’m Tobia, the solo dev behind Scroll Debt App. This project started from a very simple (and painful) pattern: “I’ll just check TikTok for 5 minutes”, and 40 minutes later I have no idea what I watched, but my brain feels cooked. I didn’t want yet another hardcore blocker or a passive screen-time dashboard. I wanted something that: - forces me to notice when I’m doomscrolling, - turns that into a clear “time debt” number, - and then nudges me back into real life with small, doable missions. That’s what Scroll Debt is trying to be. I’d love your feedback on: - The core concept – does the “time debt” idea resonate with you or feel gimmicky? - The missions – are the real-life tasks (creative / active / relaxing / skill / offline fun) useful, or would you want something different? - What’s missing – what would make you actually use this for more than a couple of days? - What's wrong – does your device have any problem running the app? If you’ve ever lost an evening to “just one more reel”, you’re exactly the kind of beta tester I built this for. Happy to answer any questions about the idea, the UX, or the tech behind it (Expo + React Native, all data stored locally).
