1. Acceptance of these terms
By creating an account, installing or using Doom Counter (the “app”) or this website you agree to these Terms and Conditions and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the app.
2. The service
Doom Counter is an Android app that estimates the number and duration of short-form videos you watch in supported third-party apps (Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook and Snapchat, including the Lite versions of Instagram, Facebook and TikTok) using Android's Accessibility service, shows them against goals you set, and offers features such as nudges, focus sessions, charts, streaks, invites and Scroll Battle. Some features require Premium. Counts are estimates: detection depends on how third-party apps are built, may be incomplete or inaccurate, and may stop working when those apps change. The app is a self-reflection tool and is not medical, psychological or professional advice.
Doom Counter is independent. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Instagram, Meta, Facebook, YouTube, Google, TikTok or Snap. Those names are trademarks of their owners and are used only to describe compatibility.
3. Eligibility
You must be old enough to form a binding contract in your country and, in any case, at least 13 years old (or the minimum age of digital consent where you live). If you are under the age of majority you must have a parent or guardian's permission to subscribe.
4. Accounts
An account is required. You must provide accurate information, keep your credentials secure and be responsible for activity under your account. Tell us promptly if you suspect unauthorized use. You can delete your account in the app at any time.
5. Accessibility permission
The app works only if you enable its Accessibility service. You do so voluntarily after an in-app disclosure and may turn it off at any time. Counting and some features will not work while it is off.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- reverse engineer, decompile or tamper with the app or its server, except as allowed by law;
- attempt to gain unauthorized access, disrupt the service, or bypass rate limits or security;
- falsify usage data, manipulate Scroll Battle results, or abuse referrals or promotional offers;
- use the app to harass others or upload unlawful, infringing or offensive content (including profile photos);
- use the app in violation of law or of the terms of the third-party apps it observes.
8. Premium, payments and trials
Core counting and the daily chart are free. Premium is offered as a subscription (monthly or yearly) purchased through Google Play. Prices, billing periods and any introductory offers are shown by Google Play before you buy. New accounts may be eligible for a 7-day free trial of Premium, available once per account. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled in Google Play. Billing, cancellation and refunds are described in our Refund Policy and are subject to Google Play's terms. Features included in Premium may change over time.
9. Intellectual property
The app, website, brand, mascot and artwork, and their content, are owned by or licensed to the developer and protected by law. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the app on your device for personal, non-commercial purposes. All rights not expressly granted are reserved. Third-party components are subject to their own licences.
10. Availability and changes
We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of the app or service, including features and the Premium plan content, and we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. Where a change materially reduces a paid feature, we will deal with it fairly as required by applicable law.
11. Disclaimers
To the extent permitted by law, the app and website are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, including accuracy of counts, fitness for a particular purpose or that the app will help you reach any goal. Nothing in these terms limits rights you have under mandatory consumer law.
12. Limitation of liability
To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or loss of data, profits or goodwill arising from your use of the app. Our total liability for any claim relating to the app is limited to the amount you paid for Premium in the 12 months before the claim, or, if you paid nothing, to a nominal amount where the law allows. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any rights you have as a consumer.
13. Suspension and termination
You may stop using the app and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these terms, misuse the service or where required by law, and will give notice where reasonably possible. Termination does not cancel a Google Play subscription; you must cancel it in Google Play.
14. Governing law and disputes
These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the developer is established, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and without affecting mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence or your right to bring a claim in the courts of that country. We encourage you to contact us first so we can try to resolve a problem informally.
15. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms. The effective date shows the latest version. If a change is material we will notify you in the app or by other suitable means. Continuing to use the app after the change takes effect means you accept the updated terms, except where the law requires otherwise.

7. Scroll Battle, invites and profile photos
If you join a battle, your display name, profile photo and reel count are visible to your opponent. Battle results are based on counts reported by the apps on each participant's device and are for entertainment only. You are responsible for photos you upload and confirm you have the right to use them.
