ScreenZen is a digital wellbeing application for Android developed to manage smartphone usage, reduce distractions and build healthier habits.
Smart approach
This is a simple tool that introduces a delay every time users open their phone, giving them a moment to consider if their intention aligns with their goals. This pause is customizable and helps to reduce impulsive unlocking habits. Moreover, it is possible to set limits for specific apps and receive gentle notifications when approaching or exceeding them. The reminders are not strict at all, allowing for self-managed behavior change.
Focus sessions
There are screen-free sessions integrated to foster better focus. You can create daily or weekly goals to reduce time you spend on specific services like Instagram, Facebook or TikTok. The companion tracks your goals and visualizes your progress over time.
It is also worth noting that the utility is designed to be non-intrusive, avoiding bright colors and addictive feedback loops. The interface presents usage data in clean charts with no unnecessary gamification or clutter.
