Honest question: do you actually know how many Reels or Shorts you watched yesterday? I didn't either, until I started building **Limitr**.

I got tired of opening Instagram "for a second" and resurfacing 45 minutes later. So I made an app that actually does something about it.

**Here's what Limitr does:**
- Counts every Reel, Short, and short video you watch in real time
- Lets you set a daily limit (e.g. 100 videos/day)
- Automatically blocks the scroll when you hit your limit — no willpower needed
- Shows you detailed stats so you can actually see your habits

The difference vs. regular screen time apps? Those track *time*. Limitr tracks *videos*. There's a big difference between watching 3 long YouTube videos and doom-scrolling 80 Reels in the same amount of time.

It uses Android's Accessibility Service purely to detect and count videos — no messages read, no personal data collected, everything stays on your device.

If you've ever tried and failed to cut back on short-form video (same 🙋), give it a shot. Would love to hear what you think.

I built an app that counts every Reel, Short and tiktok videos you watch — and blocks them when you've had enough
