How far do I scroll a day?

Most numbers online are estimates worked out from screen time. Scroll Feet measures your real scrolling distance on your phone and in your browser and shows it in feet, live, with how long you spent scrolling.

Is there an app that tracks how much you scroll?

Yes. Scroll Feet is a free scroll tracker for Android, Chrome and Firefox. It counts how far you scroll in feet, how long you scroll, and where you rank against everyone else today and this month.

Yes. Distance, time and the global daily and monthly leaderboard are free. Premium is optional and adds custom looks for the meter, an icon and name on the leaderboard, and your full history.

Does Scroll Feet read what is on my screen?

No. It reads how far the page moved, never what is on it. Only distance and time are sent, for the leaderboard and to sync your devices.

How is scrolling distance measured?

Scroll Feet adds up every pixel the page travels, up or down, and converts pixels to feet using your screen's pixel density.

Does it work on iPhone?

Not yet. Scroll Feet runs on Android phones and in Chrome, Edge, Brave and Firefox on a computer.

Measured, not guessed

How far does the average person scroll?

Nobody really knows. The figures in the news — hundreds of feet a day, dozens of miles a year — are worked out from screen time and a guess at how far one flick goes. Scroll Feet counts yours, pixel by pixel, and shows you where that puts you against everyone else who’s counting.

What you get

Green most days. Red on the ones that count.

The Scroll Feet meter sitting green in the corner of an article, reading 1,180 feet at 0.6x of a usual day. — Under your usual day. The meter stays green and stays out of the way.

The same meter turned red at 2,980 feet, 1.5x a usual day, with the share button showing. — Past it, the meter turns and a Share button appears — one click copies the picture.

Twelve premium looks for the meter: a lightning bolt, a holographic heart, a coffee mug, a moon, a rocket, a potion, a cat, a flame, a crown, a gem, a mushroom and a paw. — Premium makes it yours: twelve ready-made looks, or build your own from shapes, palettes, patterns, effects and frames. Your share images wear it too. New looks keep landing in premium as they're made.

The premium stats dashboard: today's total, week, month and lifetime feet, a climb chart past Mount Everest, and bars for the last 14 days. — Premium also keeps the history: every day you have tracked, what you beat, and how far the whole climb has gone.

Install

One click.

Add to Firefox Add to Chrome Get it on Android

Firefox — step by step

Download the .xpi. It is signed by Mozilla, so Firefox offers to install it rather than refusing it.

Firefox asks to add it. Click Add. If nothing happens, drag the file onto a Firefox window.

Updates arrive on their own. Firefox checks daily and installs new versions without you doing anything.

Scroll anything. The meter appears bottom-right and starts counting.

Android — step by step

Download the .apk on the phone itself, open it, and allow installs from your browser.

Open Scroll Feet and tap “Turn the meter on”. Switch it on in the Accessibility list — that is the only way Android lets an app see scrolling. It reads distance only, never what is on your screen. A few apps — YouTube among them — do not report their scrolling to Android at all, so their time will not be counted.

The meter lives in your notification shade, counting all day, and taps you once the moment you pass your usual.

Google Play listing is in testing — join the test to get it from Play.

Chrome, Edge, Brave — step by step

Open the Chrome Web Store page and click Add to Chrome. Edge and Brave install from the same page.

Measuring, timing and ranking are free. Making it yours is premium.
