Description
Sane Screen is an Android app that helps you notice when you’ve slipped into mindless scrolling and do something about it. Start a focus session when you need to concentrate, add a bit of friction to apps you tend to open without thinking, or turn on Night Shield when you’re getting ready for bed. As you use the app, you can see which tools actually make a difference for you. And your data stays on your phone. There’s no account, no internet permission, and nothing being tracked in the cloud.
