Screen-time scenes

See the pause in action.

Short generated scenes that make healthier screen habits feel tangible.

The Problem

One reel becomes ten. Then the evening's gone.

Infinite feeds and autoplay are built to keep you scrolling past the point you meant to stop.

How Ridan Works

Small interruptions. A different relationship with your phone.

Real Ridan app screens and recordings show how each intervention works in the moment scrolling stops being a choice.

01 · Target the trigger

Block Shorts & Reels — not the whole app.

Just the addictive formats get removed. Everything else stays.

02 · Make the boundary matter

No bypass if you Lock with money.

After all, fear of losing money is the biggest motivator of all.

03 · Break the spiral

End doomscrolling with 5 mins on, 5 mins off.

You can scroll for some time, then Ridan blocks it for some time. It breaks the spiral before it starts.

04 · Choose a better next step

Replace bad habits with something better.

A 2-minute exercise or a short lesson unlocks the next round — at least you get a better body and mind, right?

I didn’t want another productivity app. I just wanted my brain to feel calmer.

The weird part is I became more aware of when I was scrolling automatically.

Other blockers made me feel restricted. This felt more like regaining self-control.
