Zario Screen Time AI - Get roasted from distraction to action by AI

Zario is the first AI that roasts you out of doom scrolling by tricking your mind, blocking your phone and sometimes pushing a dopamine hit even before you enter distracting apps. Zario has customized "doors" that makes you think twice before entering doom.

Hi Product Hunters!


After tweaking, testing, interviewing and listening to PH and the world, we've made Zario AI. The first AI that can roast you, block you, be strict or funny. The only algorithm and AI that's actively working to make more time for what's important to you.


We built a lot of cool features, like strict mode which turns your phone into a brick and blocks all distracting apps. You can even activate an accountability fee of $2. If you're familiar with the concept of loss aversion, you know it's powerful.

Just added the "doors" feature, which shares interesting facts, and inappropriate jokes in an effort to give you a little dopamine boost even before entering the doom scrolling apps.


Most of the novel features are only available on iOS for now, but we do have an Android app with many cool and unique features. Let us know if you have any ideas, feedback or what you like/dislike in the comments :)

Cheers,

Killian & Zario Team

 I like your first comment placeholder :)

  thanks a lot!

  can't wait to get roasted 🤣

 hahaha, please share when you do

Love this creative, humorous approach to a very real epidemic of doomscroll-itis. Noticed you reference an article talking about screentime impact on children. Any plans for a child-friendly version of this app?

  Doomscroll-itis. That's funny, never heard this one before. For the children, there are already so many parental control apps, that we didn't see much of a need to be filled as much.. Also, seem like the laws are changing fast, like Singapore & Brazil this year.. Besides, some of the most searched for terms on google is "how to hack parental control screen time settings", haha.

Really appreciate the vision behind that. Tho I am not using the smartphone so much (my screen time on laptop would need this) :D

 thanks for the appreciation Nika. We felt that and heard from many that the laptop screen time, more often was used "productively", and so that's why we decided to focus on more. Which apps/ websites do you feel you'd use an App like Zario on the computer more for?

YouTube and social media like LinkedIn or Twitter :D

Let‘s make this world a better place

 yes indeed..

Impressive! This seems like a product that will become essential for modern life—including for me, of course! 🤣Congrats on the launch !🎉

 super keen on hearing what you think of it? We're worried it might be too rude sometimes.. hahah

very cool team! much needed these days..

 Thanks a lot David! We're big fans of Sahha too, and thinking of ways to integrate it

Cool idea! Who doesn't need this?


Also really great content on your website regarding the science behind it.

 thanks a lot for that. Still a lot that we haven't shared, but appreciate that you're having a look. Let us know what you think of the app, and best of luck for your launch!

Hi ! Do you plan to also launch the feature on the android app ?

Very cool App! I will try it out, maybe it helps me :)

The app actually worked quite well for me! It has a nice way of telling me to stop using my phone when I doom scroll
