About ScrollJail
ScrollJail is a free iOS Shortcut that intercepts distracting apps — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit — the moment you open them. An AI warden asks why you're there, reads your reason, and decides: allow, deny, or challenge you with a math or typing task to break the autopilot. Unlike Screen Time limits you tap through on autopilot, ScrollJail starts a conversation you can't skip. Allowed sessions are time-limited and close automatically. No bypass button. No paywall. No dark patterns. Built for people who want to keep their apps but stop the mindless scrolling.

Built this because I tried every existing solution, Screen Time, One Sec, Opal, and they all either didn't work or asked me to pay before I'd seen a single second of value. So I built my own. Free,
