Forgot Why I Opened My Phone helps users stop accidental doom scrolling
by bringing intention back to phone usage.
Many people unlock their phone for a specific reason—then forget it
within seconds and start scrolling without meaning to.
This app gently asks one simple question when the phone is unlocked:
“What was your reason?”
Your answer is shown for 10 seconds as a reminder, then disappears.
No blocking. No shaming. Just awareness.
The app does not track apps, collect usage data, or restrict access.
Everything works locally and respects privacy.

• Unlock-time intention prompt

Forgot Why I Opened My Phone helps you pause—before you scroll.
