Put It Back: Focus Coach

Put It Back turns phone addiction into a comedy. Place your phone face-down. Start the timer. Do the work. The moment you cave and flip it over, a voice lets you know exactly how they feel about it. Willpower is a myth invented by people who've never seen a For You page. The apps on your phone were built by thousands of engineers whose job is to keep you scrolling. You are not going to out-discipline them at 9pm on a Tuesday. Put It Back doesn't rely on willpower. It relies on the very specific, very effective discomfort of being audibly judged. Twenty-five minutes goes faster when someone's waiting to catch you slipping. PICK YOUR COACH • Mom — sighs, guilt, the classic "I'm not mad, just disappointed" • Sergeant — barks orders until you put the thing back down • Therapist — the quiet, passive-aggressive kind that cuts deeper HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick a session length — 15, 25, or 45 minutes 2. Pick a voice pack 3. Place your phone face-down 4. Get to work 5. Try not to pick it up If you do, a motion-sensing scold is already waiting.
