ThumbTrek

Strava for scrolling. Turn Instagram, YouTube, X, and Reddit into a trek — meters, streaks, share cards, and friend boards.

A trek, not a guilt trip

ThumbTrek measures distance, not doom. No blocking, no lectures — just the map of where your thumb already went.

Grant Accessibility once

The service only listens for scroll events in apps you choose. It never reads screen content.

Scroll like you already do

Pixels become meters using your screen density. Instagram, YouTube, X, Reddit — plus any app you add.

Check the board when you want

Streaks, records, shareable PNG cards, and fully opt-in friend or global leaderboards.

Instagram YouTube X Reddit + custom apps

Built for the long scroll

Local-first storage, signed sideloaded updates, and a social layer that stays quiet until you opt in.

Self-updating APK

Checks GitHub Releases over Wi‑Fi, verifies SHA‑256, then asks once to install. No Play Store required.

Opt-in social

Friend codes, weekly boards, anonymous handles. Nothing leaves the phone until you say so.

Honest numbers

No user calibration sliders on competitive scores — everyone measures the same raw trek.

Install in a minute

Grab the latest signed APK from GitHub Releases. Allow install from your browser once, then ThumbTrek can update itself.

Android 8.0+. Sideload only — not on the Play Store yet.

What we see — and don't

Scroll distance stays on-device by default. Cloud sync is for leaderboards you choose to join.

Never read

No screenshots, no feed text, no URLs. Accessibility is scoped to scroll events on opted-in packages.

Stored locally

Day-by-day pixels live in Room on your phone. Export CSV anytime from Settings.

Shared only if opted in

Weekly / monthly / all-time totals sync to Firebase after you flip the Social switch.
