Show HN: When you open Instagram, your textbook opens instead – ZenScript App
play.google.com
ZenScript is an Android app that automatically redirects social media apps to your chosen reading material when you hit your daily time limits. Instead of showing a "blocked" screen, it seamlessly opens your ebook or textbook.
Built this after my wife and I kept getting distracted from German exam prep by endless scrolling. We tried every app blocker, but they all had friction - you'd see "blocked" and then manually have to open your study materials, which often broke our motivation.
The key insight: replace the habit rather than just block it. When you tap Instagram after your 30-minute limit, ZenScript intercepts the launch and opens your focus book instead. No friction, just automatic redirection from scrolling to learning.
