Slow the reflex before it opens

How it works

1

Block apps you open on autopilot

Use Screen Time to choose the apps and categories that pull you in.

2

Tap through a phrase

Each tap reveals the next phrase and adds time to your earned-time bank.

3

Spend a short pass

Choose a temporary unlock. Your selected apps re-lock when the pass ends.

Change the thought before the scroll

Stacky Coach helps you pause, reframe what is happening, and choose a next move before you decide whether to earn access.

The blocker for people who bypass blockers

Stackwall is more than a blocker. The block creates the pause; Stacky Coach helps change the thought behind the reach before access.

When a task gets hard, boredom shows up, or something feels uncomfortable, your phone can become the easiest exit.

Hurdle → Phone → Scroll → Repeat

Stackwall is for the moment before the scroll. It catches the urge and gives you a concrete next move.

In the default mode, tapping earns time. When you want more active friction, require a text note or a voice rep before a tap earns.

Stacky Coach follows a short Pause → Reframe → Choose flow. Describe what is happening and get five ways to think about the moment before you decide what to do.

The block slows the reflex. Coach helps you change the thought behind it. The earned time gives you a bounded choice.

Your settings changes wait 24 hours. The rule you set while calm gets time to protect you when the urge is loud.
