A name tag on the trap

HookLens helps you mark addictive UI on screenshots — infinite scroll, badges, autoplay, rabbit holes — then ships a readable report.
Not Screen Time. Not a blocker.

HookLens sample wireframe

Labels on the trap

Turn “this app is addictive” into boxes and notes you can show someone in under two minutes.

Screenshot workspace

Upload a capture or pick a sample — including a Looply feed screenshot. No extension required.

Shared hook dictionary

The same types as Patterns: infinite scroll, badges, related chrome, autoplay.

Addiction Report

Summary, marked image, and findings — then links to Patterns and cleaner Apps.

Why not Screen Time?

Blockers cut access. HookLens names the machinery so people can choose — and later find products that ship without those hooks.

Language you can show a friend: variable reward, endless feed, badge anxiety — not just a timer.
