Manifesto
Break the reflex, not the person.
Doomscrolling is often automatic. NullScroll turns that automatic movement into a visible pause, then sends you back to the thing you actually chose.
Android beta
Free focus app
Built for attention
End the infinite scroll.
NullScroll is a free Android productivity app that interrupts doomscrolling the second scrolling becomes a loop, helping students study, founders build, families reset, and adults reclaim attention.

Protected feed
SCROLL INTERRUPTED
NullScroll caught repeated swipe motion and placed a clean stop between you and the loop.
Pause.
Take back the next 20 minutes. Return to study, work, family, or rest.
Attention saved today
42m
No shame. Just a hard stop.
Mechanism
A scroll firewall, not another timer.
Most focus apps wait until after time is lost. NullScroll is designed around the actual trigger: repeated scrolling inside apps that never give you a natural stopping point.
Select distracting apps
Choose the apps where feeds steal study time, deep work, sleep, or attention.
Detect scroll loops
When repeated scrolling begins, NullScroll identifies the pattern fast.
Interrupt cleanly
A bold focus wall stops the loop without guilt, lectures, or dark patterns.
Track attention saved
See saved minutes, protected sessions, streaks, and the apps that pull hardest.
Why now
Feeds are engineered to continue. People need a stop point.
Infinite scroll removed the moment where your brain says, enough. NullScroll puts that moment back into the phone.
The problem is not weak willpower.
Endless feeds are tuned for continuation. The product has to interrupt the machine, not blame the user.
The moment matters.
One second before the spiral is more useful than a weekly screen-time report after the damage is done.
Focus should be free.
The core protection will be free because students, kids, parents, and builders all need access.
Who it helps
For anyone tired of losing hours to a feed.
Students
Protect homework, exam prep, lectures, reading blocks, and the first hour after waking up.
Founders and creators
Keep build momentum. Stop turning product hours into accidental feed research.
Families
Give kids and adults a calmer way to step away from addictive loops and rebuild attention.
Early access
Make scrolling optional again.
NullScroll is currently being built for Android. If you are a student, parent, teacher, founder, or anyone fighting doomscrolling, join the beta list.
