About Descroll
Descroll is an app blocker that works by place. You save the places where you lose time, like the library, a lecture hall or bed, and choose the apps that pull you away. When you arrive, those apps block on their own. When you leave, they come back. Every block is Strict, with no snooze, and every way out is a deliberate step: leaving, the block's end, your own NFC unblock tag, an early unlock (5 a week, after a 10-second wait), a right answer on the block screen that opens one app for 5 minutes, or Emergency, a hold that ends every block. Presence, one number from 0 to 100 that carries over from your recent days, shows what shaped them, and missing data is never counted against you. There's no account, no ads and no trackers.
In one line
Descroll blocks the apps that pull you away, in the places and hours you choose, and shows you what you did with the time.

The mark
Four bars, then a pause.
The app icon is the mark on black. A ripple runs through the first two bars and fades; the last two stand still: the pause. The scroll slows down and stops. Mono is the icon; Blues, Two colors and Four colors are the ones people can pick in the app.
Use the icon as it is, with its rounded corners. Don't recolor, stretch, rotate or add effects. The bare mark works on any plain background with room around it.
The name
Descroll, one word.

- Descroll is for people managing their own phone, 13 and older. It isn't parental controls.

Screenshots
The app, as it is.

Colors and type
One palette, dark first.
A true black page in dark, near-black charcoal cards lit by their status hue, ink buttons and one calm blue accent. No red. The block screen is a deep teal. The app uses the system's rounded typeface: light numbers, heavy words.
