About Baseline: Dopamine Detox
Baseline helps you restore your sensitivity to the things that actually matter. Modern apps are engineered to hijack your attention. Endless scrolling, instant rewards, and algorithmic feeds raise your dopamine baseline—making real life feel dull, unfocused, and harder to enjoy. Baseline is an intentional-use app designed to help you break compulsive phone habits and redirect your time toward more meaningful activities. How Baseline works 1. The Shield Add friction to high-dopamine apps. When you try to open a distracting app, Baseline creates a mindful pause—giving you a moment to decide if it’s intentional or automatic. 2. The Menu Lower the barrier to better alternatives. Baseline surfaces simple, offline activities you can do instead—so choosing something healthier takes less effort than doom-scrolling. 3. Daily Goals Build awareness and consistency. Set a daily intention and track your progress as you practice being more deliberate with your attention. Designed for real behavior change No streak pressure No gamification traps No feeds or notifications competing for your focus Baseline doesn’t try to maximize engagement. It’s designed to help you use your phone less—on purpose. Features App blocking with mindful pauses Curated low-dopamine activity suggestions Simple daily intention tracking Clean, distraction-free design Privacy-first (no social feeds, no ads) Subscription Baseline requires a subscription to unlock all features. Free trial available. Cancel anytime. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://my-baseline.com/privacy
