Put a clock 0:00 on your scroll
.
App blockers don't work. We all know it.
When you block an app, it backfires. The moment you unlock it, you end up scrolling twice as fast to catch up.
When screen time limits pop up, you just tap ‘Ignore Limit’. It doesn't fix the habit—it just makes you really fast at closing the warning.
Time Limit
You've used 1 hour on social apps today.
The real problem is scrolling without thinking.
Research shows that talking to people online isn't actually bad for you. The bad part is scrolling on autopilot.
Talking to people
Texting friends, planning hangouts, and sharing photos. This keeps you connected and feels good.
Scrolling feeds
Just scrolling through feeds with no actual goal. This is what makes you feel bad and guilty.
Just show the time.
You don't need an app to lock you out. You just need to know how much time is passing. Ticker puts a live timer in your Dynamic Island. No popups, no blocks, and no rules. It just shows you how long you've been on your phone. You make your own choice to put it down.
You've been on this page for 0 seconds.
Imagine seeing that timer every time you open Instagram or TikTok. No locks, no guilt. Just a clock.
