Stop scrolling.
Build the life you actually want.
Sva — Detox is a psychology-driven mobile app that helps you stop scrolling and build the life you actually want. Multi-step challenges, AI coach, Dream Trailer intercepts, Golden Hour soft-locks. ₹199/month after a 7-day free trial.
Five tiny acts of friction.
Tapping a tracked app doesn't open it — it opens a brief, configurable challenge. Each step you complete is a moment to remember what you actually meant to do.
Passcode
Type your 4-digit daily passcode — or upgrade it to an "I am" affirmation (see Mindset).
Math
One simple problem. The conscious mind wakes up; the impulse loses its grip.
Box breathing
30 seconds of 4-2-4-2 breathing. Drops your heart rate before you engage.
Reflection
"Why do you want to open this right now?" — AI-tailored to the app and your goals.
Wait
A forced 15-second pause. Most urges don’t survive it.
Tracked apps
Curate the apps you want gated. Add Instagram, TikTok, Snap, YouTube — anything.
Profile → Tracked apps
Daily goal
Set a screen-time target you actually believe in. The whole app rallies around it.
Profile → Daily goal minutes
Tap counter
Counts every time you reach for a tracked app — awareness is half the change.
Stats → Urges you noticed
Seven psychology-driven layers under the lockscreen.
Every other detox app fights the conscious mind with willpower. Sva talks to the engine room — habit, emotion, imagery — using a decades-old playbook on how the subconscious actually changes.
vibe archetypes
Pick the energy you’re locking into.
Choose one of four personas. We tune every block screen, affirmation, and (soon) your Dream Trailer template to the version of you already trying to come out.
Profile → Mindset → Your vibe
affirmation lock
Type your way in.
Instead of a 4-digit code, you type a present-tense "I am" phrase. The physical act of typing rewires the passive impulse.
i am in control of my time…
Profile → Mindset → Affirmation lock
dream trailer
Your real life. 5 seconds.
Tap Instagram, see a full-screen 9:16 montage of your goals — gym PRs, dream campus, art, friends. A massive "continue building" CTA. Bypass requires a 10-second hold-down.
Profile → Mindset → Dream trailer · upload up to 5 photos or short clips
chill gate
Drop the heart rate first.
If you do tap "bypass anyway", we force box-breathing as step 1 of the challenge. Your nervous system calms before you scroll — and most of the time, you just close the app.
Automatic · no setting required
redirect engine
The urge needs somewhere to go.
You can’t erase a thought — you replace it. Bail mid-challenge and we offer one random fact, a 30-second SVG doodle, or three box-breath cycles.
Automatic on cancel · also reachable from the home tab
golden hour
Guard your most receptive minds.
The hour before bed and the hour after waking are when your subconscious is wide open. Sva soft-locks tracked apps in those windows with a warm, breathing-graphic screen.
Profile → Mindset → Golden hour · pick bedtime + wake time
identity-first stats
Celebrate time reclaimed.
Most apps shame you with "you wasted 6 hours". Sva flips the script: "You reclaimed 4h 18m this week." When you see yourself as a focused person, the behaviour follows.
Automatic · stats tab hero
Three layers, in order.
Sva picks the right friction for the moment — calming when you're tired, vivid when you need a reminder of what matters, structured when you just need a beat.
Golden Hour
Inside bedtime−1h or wake+1h → calming breath screen. No bypass.
Dream Trailer
If enabled with ≥ 1 clip → full-screen montage of your real life. "Lock in" or 10-sec hold to bypass.
Multi-step Challenge
The classic five steps. With the Chill Gate added if you came from the Trailer bypass.
Lightweight gamification, no cringe.
For younger users, every focused hour earns something real. Adults can flip these on too.

A pocket coach trained on what actually helps.
Powered by Claude Sonnet via Emergent. Talks to you about the urge in front of you — not generic mindfulness platitudes.

Home tab → Talk to Sva
Daily tip
A morning suggestion tuned to your usage and goals. One small move you can actually take today.
Auto-shown on the home tab
Smart reflection
The reflection step of every challenge is tailored by AI to the specific app and your goal — never a generic prompt.
Inside the challenge flow
One minute of intention beats 60 of regret.
Tiny daily inputs that compound into a different relationship with your phone.
Daily intention
One sentence each morning. "Today I am building X." The day organises itself around it.
Home → Intention card
Mood check-in
Tap how you feel. Over weeks, you’ll see which moods drive scrolling — and which don’t.
Focus sessions
Self-started timed deep-work blocks (Pomodoro-style). Pairs with the daily goal to lock you in.
Home → Start focus
Built to make you feel capable, not guilty.
Every chart on Sva is a reminder of capacity, not a tally of failure.
Identity-first hero
"You reclaimed Xh Ym this week" — tied to your vibe.
7-day chart
Your screen-time vs your goal, day by day. Quietly proves you’re doing this.
Urge counter
Every tracked-app tap recorded — sorted most to least. Noticing is half of changing it.
