Hey Product Hunt! 👋
I’m Youssef, and I built TimeBack because my daily screen time was over 4 hours.
Every app I tried to fix it did one of two things:
• Blocked apps completely (which I disabled after 2 days)
• Shamed me about my usage (which just made me feel worse)
So I tried something different.
What if an app didn’t block Instagram… but simply asked you to do 5 pushups first?
That tiny bit of friction changed everything.
After one week of testing it on myself:
📉 Screen time dropped by 30%
💪 50+ pushups a day (without planning it)
🤯 I actually wanted to open Instagram because it meant I’d exercise
The idea is based on habit replacement:
instead of removing a bad habit, you insert a positive one right before it.
So every time you open a distracting app, TimeBack asks you to complete a quick habit first.
