Freno - Mindful screen time

Scrolling again without realizing how you got there? We’ve all been there. Freno is a gentle companion app designed to help you cut back on screen time by changing your relationship with your phone. Instead of just harshly blocking your apps, Freno helps you build self-awareness. With the help of Pedro, our friendly otter companion, you'll learn to tune into your energy levels and physical tension to understand what you actually need in the moment - so you don't default to mindless scrolling. KEY FEATURES: • THE 28-DAY RESET: Ready for a real change? Embark on a 4-week guided journey to rewire your autopilot habits. Through daily morning intentions and evening check-ins, you'll learn to master the mindful pause, use physical grounding tricks (yes, we tackle the "toilet scroll"), and replace digital noise with genuine presence. • TUNE INTO YOURSELF: Take quick, guided moments to check your energy and physical tension. Are you clenching your jaw? Are you feeling drained? Freno helps you notice how you feel right now. • MAKE MINDFUL CHOICES: Freno introduces gentle pauses that interrupt the autopilot scrolling loop. Pedro will help you ask yourself: "What is the best for you right NOW? Your phone, or something else?" • PROTECT YOUR PRESENCE: Seamlessly integrates with iOS Focus Modes to automatically block distracting apps when you've decided it's time to be fully present in your real life. • TAKE A FLEXIBLE BREAK: Need unrestricted access for a bit? The "Indulgence break" feature lets you pause all limits for a short time when you consciously choose to.
