I wanted to find a way to use Instagram without ending up scrolling for two hours every time I open the app to see a friend's story. Most screen time apps I found focus on blocking the app itself instead of the addictive feed, so I created this app to allow me to keep using the "healthy" and "social" features and block the infinite scrolling (Reels) After implementing the block on Instagram Reels, I got addicted to YouTube Shorts and Reddit feed. So, I extended the app to cover these as well. To avoid replacing the scrolling for regular feeds, I also added a feature that shows a pop-up when…

I got diagnosed with ADHD at 47. After the diagnosis I started noticing how most productivity tools assume consistent executive function which in turn is the exact thing ADHD disrupts. So I built something different. DopaLoop is an iOS habit tracker that starts with goals ("better sleep", "less overwhelm") and lets you attach habits to them. Miss a day: nothing resets. The goal stays visible as an anchor or Northstar. The idea is that patterns over time matter more than daily streaks. Tech: SwiftUI + SwiftData, with Foundation Framework and CoreML, fully local, no backend, no account.…
