Fluid Friction makes mindless scrolling take effort. A fluid wave rises against your swipe, resists it, and only lets you through once you push past a line, so every scroll becomes a choice instead of a reflex.

What is Fluid Friction?

Fluid Friction makes mindless scrolling take effort. A fluid wave rises against your swipe, resists it, and only lets you through once you push past a line, so every scroll becomes a choice instead of a reflex. Every tool is free; the optional Fluid Pro upgrade only adds extras such as premium themes.

Feature Blocking removes Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and similar feeds without blocking the whole app, so messages and the rest of the app keep working.

All 14 tools are free: Screen Time analytics, Scheduled Blocking, Pomodoro Timer, Scroll Settings, App Blocking, Feature Blocking, Smart Friction (friction that changes with the time of day), Todo List, Habit Tracker, Mindfulness Tools, NFC/Smart Triggers, Sleep & Alarm, an AI coach and Parental Lock. An optional Fluid Pro upgrade adds extras such as premium visual themes.

Available on Android and on iPhone and iPad. On iPhone, friction works inside the app's own browser for social sites, and native apps are blocked through Apple's Screen Time. You can try the friction right in your browser on the website.
