Descroll
01

Off until invited

Enable Descroll on the websites you choose. Each site, including each subdomain, is a separate choice. There is no Descroll account or server.

02

A fault in the routine

After a delay, one of six randomized effects changes scrolling or the page’s appearance. The effects can be frustrating and reduce readability; you choose where they run.

03

A way back

Use Repair to restore the current page until it reloads, or turn Descroll off for the site when you want ordinary browsing.

Data, services, and your choices

Know what
you’re choosing.

Site preferences stay on your device. Descroll uses browser-granted access to the pages you enable and temporarily processes scrolling and page-layout signals to apply its effects.

Descroll adds friction rather than enforcing a time limit. It does not work on every website, and its effects can reduce readability. Use Repair for the current page, or turn it off for a site. Support explains the compatibility and accessibility limits.
