Why Blocking Doesn't Work
Blockers Fight the Symptom
Blocking Instagram doesn't fix why you opened it. The urge stays. You'll just switch to Twitter, YouTube, or Reddit.
Willpower Runs Out
Every blocker assumes you have infinite discipline. But after a stressful day, you'll just disable the timer. That's not a you-problem — it's a design problem.
You Need a Reset, Not a Cage
Doomscrolling isn't a discipline problem — it's your brain seeking stimulation. neboo gives it what it actually needs: 30 seconds of calm, focus, and completion.
How it Works
No setup. No configuration. No rules to define. neboo works in 5 steps — and the first one is just noticing.

30 Exercises. One for Every Moment.
Each micro-habit targets a specific neurological pathway. neboo randomly selects one based on your mood — so it never gets repetitive.
Box Breathing
Regulates your autonomic nervous system in 4 cycles
Doomscrolling isn't a willpower problem — it's a neuroscience problem. Your amygdala hijacks your prefrontal cortex, and your dopamine system keeps you scrolling for the next hit. Blockers ignore this. neboo addresses it directly.
Prefrontal Cortex
Doomscrolling bypasses your rational brain. Our 30-second intervention reactivates the prefrontal cortex — your center for conscious decisions.
Amygdala Response
Sensational content triggers fight-or-flight. Guided breathing reduces amygdala activity and shifts your nervous system to rest-and-digest.
Dopamine Loop
Infinite scroll exploits variable-ratio reinforcement. neboo breaks this loop by providing a satisfying micro-completion — without the crash.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does neboo stop doomscrolling?
neboo uses a 30-second neuroscience-based intervention: guided breathing to activate your prefrontal cortex, followed by one of 30 micro-habits that ground you in reality. It doesn't block anything — it rewires the urge.
Is neboo really free?
Yes, completely free. No premium tier, no in-app purchases, no subscription. neboo is built as a public health tool, not a business.
Do I need to create an account?
No. neboo works without any account, email, or personal information. Just open it and use it.
Does neboo track my data?
No. All your progress data (streaks, mood entries) is stored locally on your device. Nothing is sent to any server. We can't see your data even if we wanted to.
Does it work offline?
Yes. neboo is a Progressive Web App (PWA) that works completely offline once installed. No internet connection needed.
Is there a Chrome Extension?
Yes! The neboo Chrome Extension lets you break the scroll loop right at your desk. Available for free in the Chrome Web Store.
What's the science behind the 30-second reset?
The intervention combines Box Breathing (proven to reduce amygdala activity) with grounding micro-habits based on somatic experiencing, bilateral stimulation, and vagal toning. Each exercise targets a specific neurological pathway.
Ready to Break the Scroll?
