Soberphone: Less Screen Time

Soberphone is not just another app blocker. It's a real path out of screen addiction. Social support is one of the most effective tools we have for breaking hard habits. It has decades of research behind it and is core to behavior change of all kinds. So we're putting it at the center of Soberphone because we want real solutions. We want freedom from our screens. We want to go beyond the blockers, gamification, and focus-hacks. Here's how it works: 1.) Decide what tech you struggle with and set goals for your ideal use. 2.) Choose how long to use that tech for at each open with the "Unlock" Timer. 3.) Add supporters to motivate real change – they’ll be invited to check in if you go over a goal. 4.) Commit to a Reflection process to shine light on the deeper layers that keep us hooked - share with supporters or keep for yourself. 4.) Watch your orb – it changes to reflect your progress. Keep it vibrant by meeting your goals each day, and unlock new orbs over time. - THE CONTEXT - There's a lot to love about our **screens** The utility, the connection, the whole world in our hands. But we're totally **hooked** Hours, weeks, and years of our lives spent unintentionally absorbed. We're not meant to face this **alone** It takes a lot more than willpower to get free. And most existing solutions miss the emotional and relational core of the issue. Healing happens in **connection** not in isolation. Decades of research on compulsion and addiction are clear on this. **Peer Support** is one of the most evidence-backed methods for breaking habits. So let's use it. No cold turkey. No dumb phones. No hyper-gamification. Just flexible support for the screen-life balance you want. ------------------------------------------ Soberphone requires an auto-renewable subscription to access its features. • Annual - $49.99/year (includes a 14-day free trial) • Monthly - $5.99/month Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.
