Built by one developer in Jabalpur.

ScrollTrace is built by Badal Lalwani, an independent, self-taught Flutter developer based in Jabalpur, Madhya Pradesh, India. He started ScrollTrace in 2025 and publishes it on Google Play as the developer of ScrollTrace: Track Doomscroll.

Why ScrollTrace exists

Screen-time apps report minutes per app. That number hides the part that actually hurts: the endless swipe through Reels and Shorts, mixed in with messages and long videos that are fine. ScrollTrace started from a simple question — how many short videos do I actually go through in a day? — and counts exactly that.

The goal is not to shame anyone or to block apps. It is to give an honest number that you can watch go down.

What is being worked on

  • Keeping detection accurate as Instagram, YouTube and TikTok update their apps
  • Clearer weekly reports
  • Better explanations of what the app can and cannot see
