App: Scroll Stop: Screen Time Coach (com.askpoint.scrollstop)
Developer: Askpoint, Hubballi, Karnataka, India
Effective date: 30 October 2026
Scroll Stop helps you understand and reduce your screen time. Your app usage data is processed and stored only on your device. It is never uploaded to our servers, never sold and never shared with advertisers or analytics providers.
The app does not require an account or login and does not ask for your name, email or phone number. Your onboarding answers (age range, estimated daily phone hours, apps you find distracting, goal and reasons), your daily app limits, daily screen-time totals, Scroll Scores, streaks, milestones and preferences (theme, manual mode) are stored only on your device. You can delete this data at any time by clearing the app's data or uninstalling the app.
If you choose to turn on Android's Usage Access for Scroll Stop (Settings > Usage access), the app uses Android's UsageStatsManager to read how long each app was in the foreground today and over the last 7 days. This is used only to show your screen time, calculate your Scroll Score and charts, and send a local "Time for a break" notification when you reach a daily limit you set. A background check (Android WorkManager, about every 15 minutes) compares today's usage with your limits on the device. The app does not read anything inside other apps (no messages, content, browsing history, keystrokes or screen contents) and does not use an Accessibility Service. Usage data, app names and per-app usage never leave your device and are not sent to us, to advertisers, to analytics or to any third party. Usage Access is optional; if you do not grant it the app works in manual mode, where you enter your screen time yourself. You can revoke it at any time in Android settings.
To let you pick an app for a daily limit, the app lists apps that appear in your launcher (using Android's package visibility for launcher apps only). This list is shown on your device only and is not transmitted anywhere.
On Android 13+ the app asks for notification permission so it can send local "Time for a break" reminders. Notifications are generated on your device and never contain ads.
If you tap Share, the app creates an image of your weekly totals (score, streak, hours reclaimed, daily average; no app names) on your device and hands it to the Android share sheet. It is only sent to the app or person you choose.
Scroll Stop is free to use with optional Pro subscriptions (weekly or yearly, the yearly plan may include a free trial). Payments are processed by Google Play; we never see or store your payment card details. We use RevenueCat to validate purchases and manage your subscription status. RevenueCat receives an anonymous app user ID, purchase tokens and transaction details (product, price, currency, purchase and expiry dates), device/OS information and approximate country. It does not receive your usage data. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled; you can cancel any time in Google Play > Payments & subscriptions > Subscriptions, or via this link.
We may use Google Firebase Analytics to understand how the app is used. We only log aggregate events such as app opens, screens viewed, onboarding steps completed, paywall views, purchase started/completed, pauses completed and your daily Scroll Score, together with standard data collected by Firebase (app instance ID, device model, OS version, approximate region). We never send app names, package names or per-app usage to analytics.
Free users may see banner ads served by Google AdMob on the Stats/Insights screen only. Ads are never shown on the breathing Pause screen, in notifications or during onboarding, and Pro subscribers see no ads. AdMob may collect and use the device's Advertising ID, IP address and app interaction data to serve, measure and (where permitted) personalise ads. Users in the EEA, UK and Switzerland are asked for consent via Google's consent form and can change their choice at any time under Settings > Ad privacy choices. You can reset your Advertising ID or opt out of personalised ads in your device settings. See How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
The app does not access your location, contacts, camera, microphone, messages or files, and does not draw over other apps.
Scroll Stop is a self-help tool for building healthier phone habits. It is not a medical device and does not diagnose or treat any condition.
We do not sell personal data. Data collected by the services above is transmitted encrypted (HTTPS) and processed under their own policies. We do not share data with any other parties except as required by law.
Because your usage data and settings stay on your device, you control them directly. For data processed by Google or RevenueCat you may withdraw consent in the app, reset your Advertising ID, or contact us to exercise your rights of access, correction or deletion.
The app is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided data, contact us and we will help remove it.
Locally stored data remains on your device until you clear the app's data or uninstall it. Analytics data is retained per Google's default retention settings; subscription records are retained by Google Play and RevenueCat as required for billing and legal purposes. To request deletion of data associated with your app instance, email us.
We may update this policy; changes will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
