Cute melting brain against doomscrolling and screen time
Free. No account. You pick the feed (TikTok, Reels, Shorts, YouTube, Reddit). Meltie adds up today’s minutes and the brain melts. It does not lock apps.
Windows may warn that the file is unsigned. That is SmartScreen, not a virus scan. Check the file on VirusTotal yourself (upload the exe, look at detections). We do not pay Microsoft for a code signature yet, so “verified by antivirus” would be a lie.
What Meltie is
A small toy for phone habits and late-night scrolling. Brain rot here means the mushy feeling after too much feed, not a medical diagnosis. Doomscrolling is the endless news/social spiral. Shorts and reels are the short-video loop. Meltie treats both as time in the apps you mark.
It is not called Brainrot. That word is slang; we use it only to describe the problem. The product name is Meltie.

Android waitlist
No phone app in stores yet. Email only for that launch. No newsletter until then. No paywall on the brain.
What it does not do
No app blocker. No “only YouTube Shorts, not long videos” — the system counts the whole app. No login. No paywall on the melting brain.
