Deleting the appwas never the fix.
Reset Vision identifies what each compulsive check is actually doing for you, substitutes something that does it better, and rebuilds your defaults so the change does not rely on willpower.

Built for one hurdle, not for everyone at once.
Digital detoxes fail because they remove a behavior without replacing its function. Every compulsive check serves something real: soothing an unpleasant feeling, avoiding an aversive task, filling a transition, or satisfying genuine social need. Delete the app and the function goes unmet, which is why you reinstall on Thursday. Reset Vision runs function analysis first. You log checks with a single tap and a one-word reason for a week; the pattern that emerges is usually blunt — sixty percent of your checks are task-avoidance and cluster in the ten minutes after you sit down to start something hard. That is not a phone problem, it is a task-initiation problem with a phone attached, and it responds to a completely different intervention. From there the app substitutes function-matched alternatives, rebuilds your defaults so the friction sits in the right place, and tracks reclaimed hours rather than shaming your screen time.

Three steps from overwhelm to a measured baseline.
- 01
Analyze the function
One week of one-tap logging with a one-word reason. The output is a breakdown of what your checking is actually doing for you, by percentage.
- 02
Substitute deliberately
Each dominant function gets a matched alternative that serves it as well or better, because removal without substitution reliably fails within a fortnight.
- 03
Rebuild the defaults
Concrete environmental changes — placement, notification structure, friction position — so the new pattern holds without daily willpower expenditure.
What you actually get.
Function analysis
A percentage breakdown of soothing, avoidance, transition-filling and genuine connection, which is far more actionable than a screen time total.
Matched substitutions
Alternatives selected for the specific function rather than generic advice to read a book, since a book does not soothe the same way a scroll does.
Reclaimed-hours metric
The headline number is hours returned to the things you said you cared about, not hours denied to your phone. Framing changes adherence.
Default engineering
A tracked set of environmental changes with a record of which ones held during a stressful week and which quietly reverted.
Nearby surfaces your data already improves.

Log one week of checks with a one-word reason each. The breakdown usually reframes the problem entirely, and the substitutions start the following Monday.
