I've finally found an app that stops the endless scrolling and I love it

Homescreen Heroes: Pocket lets you save online articles for reading at your convenience
The article discusses the author's experience with the app "One Sec," designed to combat the habit of endless scrolling on social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram. The app works by prompting users to take a deep breath before accessing these apps, aiming to increase mindfulness and reduce mindless scrolling. The author found that after using One Sec for a week, their screen time on these apps significantly decreased, from an average of 15 minutes to just 2 minutes per day. This change not only helped in reducing time spent on social media but also improved the author's overall well-being, making them feel more present and less anxious. The app's effectiveness lies in its simplicity and the subtle reminder it provides, encouraging users to be more intentional about their social media use.
