Pauso - Screen Time Controller vs ZoeMD

You just picked up your phone to "check one thing." Thirty minutes later, you're deep in a scroll hole, wondering where the time went.

Sound familiar? You're not alone.

Pauso breaks the autopilot loop with one simple idea: take a breath before you scroll. When you open a distracting app, Pauso guides you through a calming breathing exercise, then asks: do you still want to open it? No judgment. Just a moment of awareness that changes everything.

BREATHE MODE
When you tap a protected app, Pauso gently intercepts with a full-screen breathing animation. One deep breath is all it takes. Then you see how many times you've tried to open that app today, and you choose: walk away or continue. Most people walk away. That is the power of a single pause.

BLOCK MODE
For apps you truly want to avoid, Block Mode locks them completely. It works even after you close Pauso. Need a quick break? Take a 10-minute breather, then the block resumes automatically. No willpower required.

WIND DOWN MODE
Set separate weekday and weekend bedtimes. Pauso auto-blocks all protected apps during your sleep window, with a warning so you can wrap up. Stop doom scrolling in bed.

WHY PAUSO IS DIFFERENT
Unlike blockers that just lock you out, Pauso builds self-awareness. The breathing exercise creates a micro-moment of calm that rewires the impulse to scroll. Over time, you stop reaching for your phone on autopilot. The habit changes from the inside.
