About QuitWits – Stop Doom Scrolling

Stop Doom Scrolling. Start Living. You open a social media site for 5 minutes. Forty-five minutes later, you're still scrolling — not sure why, not even sure what you're watching anymore. QuitWits fixes that. What it does QuitWits sits quietly in your Chrome browser and tracks how long you've been on sites that tend to keep you scrolling. When you hit your time threshold, it interrupts the scroll trance with a short, human nudge — not a lecture, just a moment of awareness. You then decide: take a break, or keep going. That's it. Why it works Doom scrolling isn't a willpower problem — it's an engineering problem. Infinite scroll, autoplay, and dopamine-triggering content are designed to remove every natural stopping point. QuitWits puts one back. Features * Punchy, human messages, funny trivia — every nudge is short and witty * Fully private — doesn't read your content, track your searches, or sell your data * No account required — install and it just works * You set the rules — customise time thresholds per site to fit your habits Who it's for Anyone who's said "just 5 more minutes" and looked up 90 minutes later. If you've ever felt like your social site was watching you more than you were watching it — this is for you.
