Timo helps you turn screen time into intentional time. Most apps are designed to pull you in quickly and keep you there. Timo adds a simple gate before you open them. Your apps stay locked by default, while essentials like messaging, maps, or utilities can stay available when you need them. When you want to use your phone, start a session. Choose what kind of time it is, set a timer, and name your reason. Timo helps you pause before you open an app, use it for a purpose, then return to your day when the session ends. WHY TIMO Screen Time totals can tell you how long you used your phone, but they rarely tell you whether that time helped or distracted you. Timo makes your phone use more deliberate. Reading is different from scrolling. Planning is different from procrastinating. Messaging a friend is different from falling into a feed. Timo helps you create those distinctions before you unlock. WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH TIMO • Lock apps by default Create a calmer phone by keeping apps behind an intentional start step. • Keep essentials available Choose exceptions for apps you want ready when you need them, like messages, navigation, or everyday utilities. • Start intentional sessions Pick a category, set a timer, and write the reason you are opening your phone. • Return to locked mode automatically When your session ends, Timo brings the gate back so you do not have to rely on willpower. • Understand your phone habits Track sessions by category and see how your time changes across days and months. • Set goals and limits Build more useful time, reduce mindless scrolling, and stay aware with usage alerts. PRO SUBSCRIPTION REQUIRED Timo requires a paid Pro subscription to use the app features. Subscription pricing and terms are shown clearly in the app before purchase. BUILT FOR REAL LIFE Timo is not about making your phone unusable. It is about making the apps that pull your attention a little less automatic. Keep what matters available. Put the rest behind intention.
