Junkfoodselfie blocks your food-delivery apps on the days you choose. Unlocking takes one honest pause — a live selfie, or a promise you wrote to yourself. Most nights, that pause is all it takes.

If something in you just said yes — we made this app for you.
How it works
You set the rules. The app holds you to them — kindly.
Choose which food apps to block and which days they're off-limits — weekday evenings, weekends, or every day. Apple's Screen Time does the locking.
Opening a blocked app takes a deliberate ritual: a live selfie checked on your phone, or press-and-holding a note you wrote to yourself. No shame — just a pause.
Log how each day went, keep a no-junk streak, see your estimated savings grow, and share wins with friends who keep you honest.
See it in action
A few of the moments that do the work — every screen a real capture.
On your danger days, your chosen food apps go dark — enforced by Apple's Screen Time, right on the app itself.
One honest look at yourself before you order — checked on your phone, never uploaded, never stored.
Prefer no camera? Hold the promise you wrote to yourself over a photo that reminds you why you started.
Your own then and now, crossfading mid-unlock — the reason, remembered at the exact right moment.
Your estimated savings, your streak, your blocked apps — the whole story at one honest glance.
Real plates, invite-only friends, emoji cheers — zero judgement.
The science
Peer-reviewed research — not app-store poetry.
the rise in insulin resistance over 15 years for people eating fast food more than twice a week — plus ≈ 4.5 kg extra.
higher risk of cardiovascular-related death linked to higher ultra-processed food intake, across ~10 million people.
of app-opening attempts were abandoned when a short pause appeared first, in a published field experiment.
fewer attempts to open those apps after six weeks of the pause. That pause is exactly what Junkfoodselfie is.
Tell the app what a typical order costs you, and every blocked day you don't order adds it back to your tally. Skip half your junk orders and the estimate does the talking — most people are genuinely shocked by their own monthly figure.
Savings figures are estimates based on the order value you enter — motivational arithmetic, not financial records. Friends never see your money figures.
Private by design
Seven days free. One honest pause. Your money and your streak do the rest.
Questions
No. Junkfoodselfie is a behavioural self-control tool — a speed bump you set up for yourself. It isn't medical, nutritional, or psychological advice, and it's not a treatment for anything. If you have or have had an eating disorder or body-image concerns, talk to a professional before using it.
Yes — deliberately. It's a pause, not a prison. Blocking runs on Apple's Screen Time and can always be undone by you; the point is that ordering stops being a reflex and becomes a decision.
Only what's listed: your name, picture, streak, blocked days, your last 60 days of outcomes, and meal photos you deliberately share. Never your selfies, notes, money figures, or which apps you block. Friendship is mutual invite-only.
7 days free with everything included, then a subscription — monthly or yearly. The monthly plan costs less than a single takeaway order, and the yearly plan costs less than half of one order a month. Cancel during the trial and you pay nothing. If your subscription ends, blocking pauses; the app never keeps charging or working silently.
In the app: Settings → Delete account. It's immediate and permanent — profile, photos, calendar, friends, everything. Or email us and we'll do it for you.
