Alexia presenta su versión APP para tabletas con sistema operativo iOS (iPad). Una nueva experiencia de usuario que permitirá a los profesores realizar tareas propias del aula en su dispositivo móvil. Los profesores trabajan con la versión APP de Alexia con la misma base de datos, con lo que solo tendrán que introducir la información una sola vez y todo quedará grabado en el sistema. En esta primera versión, los profesores dispondrán de las fichas de alumnos y de las áreas con toda la información correspondiente, podrán pasar lista por alumno y también a todos, tanto por intervalo (día, mañana, tarde) como por sesión, justificar incidencias, evaluar por área y por alumno, calificar aspectos evaluables, definir y evaluar controles, poner observaciones y consultar y añadir nuevos eventos en la agenda. Para poder utilizar esta APP debes ser profesor de un centro educativo que utilice Alexia como sistema de gestión y tu centro debe haberte facilitado la licencia de activación. Próximamente la nueva APP de Alexia incluirá muchas más novedades relacionadas con los profesores, pero también con familias y alumnos, además de la versión para smartphones.

PhoneLess helps you reduce screen time, break the pull of distracting apps, and build a healthier relationship with your phone. It gives you different ways to change your habits, helps you understand what works for you, and connects you with people trying to do the same. Your phone isn't the enemy. But sometimes a quick check turns into 30 minutes of scrolling, an app gets downloaded again, or a screen-time limit gets dismissed without thinking. Instead of expecting one solution to work for everyone, PhoneLess gives you different ways to take back control — from app blocking and physical barriers to challenges, accountability and tools to understand your habits. BLOCK DISTRACTING APPS Choose the apps and websites that take more of your time than you'd like and block them using Apple Screen Time permissions. Create focused periods for work, study, sleep or simply being away from your phone. Block or limit: • Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, X and Snapchat • YouTube, Netflix and entertainment apps • Reddit and other scrolling-heavy apps • Games, dating and shopping apps • News and distracting websites • Adult content and pornography • Or any other apps you choose MAKE IT HARDER TO GIVE IN PhoneLess lets you create stronger commitments around the apps you want to use less. And when you want a physical barrier, there's Poff. GO PHYSICAL WITH POFF Poff is an optional NFC blocker that takes app blocking outside your phone. Choose your apps, tap your iPhone to Poff, and they stay blocked until you physically return and tap Poff again. Unlocking becomes a conscious decision instead of another button you tap without thinking. DON'T DO IT ALONE Changing your relationship with your phone doesn't have to be a solo thing. Create groups with friends, see each other's progress, take on challenges together and add accountability when willpower isn't enough. Connect with a community of people trying to reclaim their time, share progress and learn from people working toward the same thing. LEARN WHAT ACTUALLY WORKS FOR YOU PhoneLess isn't just about making your Screen Time number go down. We want you to understand your relationship with your phone. Explore different approaches to digital wellbeing, learn about the thinking and research behind them, try them yourself, and see what helps you change. PhoneLess helps you discover what works for you and build habits that last beyond the app. MAKE CHANGE SOMETHING YOU WANT TO KEEP DOING Reducing screen time doesn't have to feel like punishment. Take on challenges based on your screen-time progress, build streaks, complete quests, earn rewards and customize Doomi as you improve. Track your screen time, Doom apps and focus habits so you can actually see your progress. USE PHONELESS FOR THE MOMENTS THAT MATTER • Reduce social media and doomscrolling • Focus while working or studying • Protect your sleep from late-night scrolling • Be more present with friends and family • Create healthier digital boundaries • Take a digital detox without relying only on willpower • Spend more time on the things you care about MORE THAN AN APP BLOCKER PhoneLess isn't about getting rid of your phone. Phones are incredibly useful. It's about making sure you're the one deciding how you spend your time. Block when you need a barrier. Get accountability when you need support. Try challenges when you need motivation. Learn what works for you. Use Poff when you want the decision to become physical. Some features require iOS Screen Time permissions. PhoneLess Pro unlocks additional features including advanced history, customization, challenge modes and group upgrades. Poff is an optional physical product sold separately where available. Less life in here. More life out there.
