ScrollShield: Block Shorts

ScrollShield helps you stay focused by preventing access to distracting apps like Reels and Shorts.

If you often open social media for a few minutes and lose track of time, ScrollShield helps you take back control.

When blocking is active, ScrollShield prevents selected apps from opening. This helps you avoid distractions completely and stay committed to your work, study sessions, or personal goals.

Instead of uninstalling your favorite apps, you can simply control when and how you use them.

🔹 How It Works

🔐 Privacy & Security

This app uses Android's Accessibility Service to detect when a short-form video app (such as YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, or TikTok) is opened in the foreground. This is the only way to reliably identify which app is active without requiring root access. The Accessibility Service is used solely for app detection and blocking purposes. No screen content, personal data, keystrokes, or user inputs are read or collected.

Take control of your time.
