PhoneLess: Reduce Screen Time

PhoneLess is a screen time accountability app that helps you use your phone less together with friends or/and family.
Track your screen time, join groups, complete challenges, keep each other accountable,
and use social app-blocking tools and social dynamics that make better habits around phone misuse actually stick.

Most screen time apps expect you to fix your phone habits alone.
Yeah… that usually does not work.

Because let’s be real: most of us already tried the solo blocking-app thing.
And most of us already know how that ends.

What if your friends, family, loved ones can see how you are doing, nudge you when they see you are doomscrollingmaxxing,
have the power to unlock your selected apps or not, at the end,
be there for you and you for them,
to improve, together.
That is what we built, for you.

Because good friends do not let you rot your brain.

Compete in leaderboards for lowest screen time, most improvement, and more.
Because progress is not just about who already had the best habits.
It is about who is actually changing.

Challenges make the whole thing real.
Create or join challenges with your group, whether that means staying under a daily cap,
hitting a weekly average, protecting certain hours of the day, keeping a streak alive, or limiting specific apps.
You can see who is keeping up, who is slipping, and whether the whole group is actually pulling it off together.
You only win the reward if
all participants pass the conditions.

And then there is Doomboard.
Pick your personal “doom apps,” and PhoneLess tracks them separately
so you can focus on the apps that waste your time most.
Your cute character, Doomy, gets more doomed the more time you spend on those apps.
And your friends can see the status of your character!

Because sometimes the issue is not “my phone.”
It is that one app that keeps stealing your day in tiny,
suspiciously expensive chunks.

Need stronger boundaries?
Set up Blocking Contracts around distracting apps.
You can set them that you can unlock them whenever you want or...
Give the power to your friends, and you will have to beg them for more screen time.
You will be able to see all the requests you and your friends have seen.
Your willpower sometimes is just not enough

PhoneLess also helps you:
• track daily, weekly, monthly, and lifetime screen time together with your friends if you are ina group
• join groups and stay accountable together
• compare progress, streaks, and group averages
• compete in leaderboards
• join group challenges
• earn badges and rewards
• use iPhone widgets for leaderboards and Doomboard
• get supportive insights based on your habits

PhoneLess is not here to guilt-trip you with numbers.
It is here to help you waste less time,
live more outside your phone,
spend more time with those that pertain to the group trying to reduce their screen time
and make better habits feel easier with people around you.

Less doomscrolling.
More living.
More “want to hang out?”
Less “wait, why am I still on this app?”

Less phone. More life. Together.

Less life in here. More life out there.
Much love.
