Catch the spiral before it catches you. A calm cognitive reframe before you open the sites that pull you in. Unspiral puts a calm, intentional pause between you and the sites that quietly eat your time. When you open a site you've chosen to slow down — a social feed, a video site, a news page — Unspiral gently steps in first. Instead of dropping you straight into the scroll, it shows a brief, full-screen moment to help you reset: • Name what's pulling you in — comparison, anxiety, cynicism, all-or-nothing thinking, or plain autopilot. • Read a short reframe matched to that feeling — a grounded thought, not a guilt trip. • Take a breath with a short pause timer, then choose how long to open the site for. That's it. No lockouts, no shaming, no streak you'll feel bad about breaking. Just enough friction to turn an automatic habit back into a choice. WHY IT WORKS A few seconds of reflection is often all it takes to ask "do I actually want this right now?" Unspiral adds that beat without blocking you out. You stay in control — you can always continue, and you can always close the tab. FEATURES • A full-screen reframe before chosen sites load — not a dismissible pop-up. • Five reflection themes with 40+ short, supportive reframes. • Timed passes — open a site for 15 minutes, 30 minutes, an hour, or the rest of the day. • A gentle daily streak and reframe count to track your progress. • Add or remove any site in one click. • Adjustable friction — set the pause length and pause timer to whatever helps you. • A clean popup that shows the current site's status and time remaining. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Unspiral works entirely on your device. No accounts, no servers, no analytics, no ads, and nothing is ever sent anywhere. Your blocklist, settings, and stats stay in your browser and nowhere else. Catch the spiral before it catches you.
