Lemio stops you in the moments of unconscious, impulsive and compulsive phone use and transitions you from mindless doomscrolling to useful & healthy habits. Time limit per session - Each app should be used with intention, but at the same time remain easily accessible. That is why Lemio forces you to choose a session time for each entry.

Neuroscientific Breathing - There is a way to de-stress and calm your brain in a matter of seconds. It's called the physiological sigh, a breathing exercise based on the science of how crying babies calm down. We introduce it every time we detect abusive behavior. The Attention Masterclass - Attention is both a skill and a mental resource. It allows us to navigate life efficiently, learn, build relationships, and have successful careers. It can be trained, and Lemio teaches you how. WHY LEMIO IS NEEDED There are several reasons for this: Focus and attention span are constantly decreasing: Attention span has dropped from 12 seconds (2000) to 8.25 seconds (2021), below the level of a goldfish. Studies also show that humans need about 20 minutes for deep focus, while the average phone pickup time for GenY and younger is about every 7 minutes. Phone procrastination is real: Research shows that 32% of screen time during work hours and 57% at home is completely unintentional procrastination. Smartphone addiction is a disease: Excessive smartphone use has been linked to impaired cognitive function and mental health issues such as stress, depression, and self-harm. Lemio is on a mission to stop all of this. We increase your productivity, help you overcome phone distractions, and take back control. At the same time, Lemio is a place for inspiration, motivation, accountability, and social interaction with like-minded people. We want to teach you useful and healthy habits and prove that science and biohacking can be fun! Our mission is complete when Lemio becomes your place for personal development, growth, goal setting and goal achievement. Our dream is to change the way people think & live. Our vision is that people will only pick up their phones when they have a good reason to do so. At the same time, we want to help people accelerate in life by building know-how, identity and real-life relationships with the phone as an enabler, not a time parasite.

Reclaim your attention, one scroll at a time. You open an app "just for a minute"—and twenty minutes later you're still scrolling. BrainStop is the gentle nudge that snaps you out of it. Pick the apps that eat your time, set a limit, and BrainStop sends you a friendly reminder once you've spent that long on them today. No lectures, no guilt—just a well-timed tap on the shoulder so you can choose to put the phone down. How it works • Choose the apps you tend to lose yourself in (social media, video, news—whatever your weakness is). • Set your limit, from a few minutes to a couple of hours. • Get a notification the moment you cross it—and again at every interval after, if you keep going. Made to fit your life • Repeating nudges that escalate the longer you stay, so you can't ignore them on autopilot. • Cap the number of reminders per day, or let them run. • A Control Center toggle to start or stop BrainStop in a single tap. • Works with Siri, Shortcuts, and the Action button. Private by design BrainStop is built on Apple's Screen Time technology. Your usage data never leaves your device—BrainStop can't see what you do in your apps, only that a time limit has been reached. Nothing is collected, tracked, or sent anywhere. No accounts. No subscriptions to think about. No dark patterns pulling you back in. Your attention is yours. BrainStop just helps you keep it.
