Opal - Finally on Android: the world’s favorite screen time app.

Opal helps you reclaim time and focus by blocking distracting apps and tracking your screen time. Loved by millions of iOS users (200+ million hours saved), it’s finally on Android to help you take control of your phone.

Hey PH community,

Opal was created to help people (like me) break free from screen addiction and focus on what matters. Over the past few years, our iOS community has saved +200 million hours of screen time.

One of the question the team heard the most was “When is Opal coming to Android?”
Today, I’m thrilled to finally say: it’s here. We took our time to make sure the Android experience is as seamless and effective as on iOS.

Thank you to everyone who has been patiently waiting and cheering us on.
We're excited to welcome Android users to the Opal community, and we can’t wait to hear your feedback.

Thanks @kay_arkain!
We’ve seen drastic improvements in people’s wellbeing once they regain control of their screen time, and we're excited to bring the same impact to Android

The website would deserve Play Store and App Store button for downloading. 😌 (I usually found it like more direct CTA) :) Anyway, love the concept of digital detoxing and website :)

Incredibly excited to bring Opal to Android! It's going to be a gigantic platform for us to help a billion people focus better in the coming years. Just like we did for iPhone, we're going to release a new version at least every week. It will be improving extremely fast, so please keep sharing feedback here and on community.opal.so so we can improve fast. Android is a fantastic platform with so many opportunities to improve people's focus. Let's go!

Just tried Opal on Android, super clean UX and surprisingly effective at killing those muscle-memory scrolls. Already caught myself reaching for IG and hitting a block. 👏

Opal has finally launched—what wonderful news! Just the idea of "helping people take control of their screen time in a fun way" hits home for so many people. After all, who hasn’t mindlessly spent hours on their phone without even realizing it?
