Hey Product Hunters! We built 4rem to solve a problem - to help us cut screen time out of bedtime. Screen time limits are too easy to override, and we needed our phones for what it’s useful for - keeping time, wake up alarms, and the occasional emergency call or text (if you’re a parent, you know). So, 4rem was born!

Pretty neat! What's the process for unlocking in case you really need access for something?

@jason_lt I keep my lock downstairs in my kitchen, so if I *really* need to unlock my phone sometime at night, I always can. But the friction of having to get out of bed, go downstairs has really has helped create the behavioral change I was hoping for.

Massive congrats to the 4rem team on today's launch! I love how you're tackling bedtime doomscrolling with a clever combo of an app and physical lock. Here's a quirky question to test your problem-solving skills: If I apply the same 'easurement' logic to screen time, how would 4rem help me 'easure out' just 30 minutes of social media use before auto-locking the rest of the night?
