Why You Need It
- Break the endless scroll — A fixed budget in sight makes you conscious of every view
- Real consequences — A 48-hour cooldown when hitting zero trains the discipline to quit early
- 100% private — All data stays on your device. No tracking, no accounts
- Minimal design — A subtle floating counter that stays out of your way
