Ditch : Dopamine Detox

Ditch the scroll. Reclaim your mind with gamified attention training.

Ditch the scroll. Reclaim your mind with gamified attention training designed to help you build focus, break impulse loops, and turn intention into action. Ditch uses real‑time, on‑device monitoring to catch distracting apps in the moment and presents a full‑screen nudge with clear choices—Resist, Delay, or Override—so you stay in control and practice better habits over time.
How it helps: When an urge hits, timing matters. Ditch intervenes exactly when you open a distracting app, prompting a quick decision that aligns with your goals. Small wins compound: short delays, fewer overrides, and consistent resist choices build your “focus muscle” day by day—without shaming, and without complicated rules.
What you can do :
Real‑time distraction control: Catch doomscrolling before it spirals.
Intentional choices: Resist, take a short Delay timer, or Override consciously.
Habit caps: Set daily limits for specific apps or categories.
Session tracking: See where time goes and how your focus improves.
Gamified progress: Earn XP, unlock levels, and celebrate streaks.
Fully on‑device: Private by design; no accounts, no cloud.
Why it works: Interventions at the exact moment of distraction.
Clear, simple decisions reduce friction and rumination.
Visual progress and gentle rewards reinforce momentum.
No complex setups—start in minutes and iterate as you go.
