Block distracting sites, interrupt endless scrolling, and make your browsing more deliberate. ScrollSentry helps you catch yourself before a quick check turns into a long scroll. Built by an independent developer, ScrollSentry blocks distracting websites, interrupts endless scrolling, and adds deliberate friction before bypassing your own rules. ## WHAT SCROLLSENTRY DOES • Block distracting sites with a Block List, or restrict browsing to an Allow List. • Choose Hard mode for strict blocking or Easy mode for a bypass button with a configurable 0 to 60-second delay. • Interrupt long scrolling sessions after 10 screen heights with a simple choice: close the tab or keep going. • Turn bypassed pages grayscale to make them less visually distracting. • Protect important settings with an optional password. • Customize your block screen, message, theme, bypass label, delay, and redirect. ## AI APPROVED BROWSING Need temporary access to a blocked site? Instead of clicking a simple bypass button, optional paid AI Approved Browsing asks you to explain why you need access. Putting your reason into words adds another moment to stop and check your intent. Your request is then reviewed, and if approved, you get temporary access for the current tab and domain without removing the site from your Block List. ## BUILT FOR DELIBERATE BROWSING ScrollSentry does not try to make every distracting website permanently inaccessible. It adds friction at the moments when impulsive browsing usually takes over: • Before opening a blocked site • Before bypassing your rules • After extended scrolling • Before weakening your settings Your lists and settings are stored using Chrome storage. No account is required. ## YOUR DATA ScrollSentry never sells your data or shares it with third parties for advertising or unrelated purposes. Most settings stay in Chrome storage. When you use AI Approved Browsing, the domain you are trying to visit and the reason you provide are sent to the decision service so your request can be reviewed. Additional technical information required to authenticate the request is also transmitted. Payment information is used only as needed to process your purchase. Set your rules, choose how strict they should be, and let ScrollSentry remind you to pause and check your intent.
