Congratulations, you made it to Thursday, which is in fact an accomplishment. It can be hard to step away from your phone period, let alone give your tired thumb a break from doomscrolling when troubling news looms. Thatâs why the chatter around [Zario]( today is giving us hope. The new app uses psychology-backed concepts to help you understand your screen addiction and overcome it. Co-founder Ondrej Zak shared his experience, and itâs resonating with many in the community. âI reached my lowest when my boss approached me one day after a meeting. She told me to never turn on Tinder during meetings again. ð
The scary thing was that I wasn't even aware of having used itâ¦" Zak turned to the book [Indistractable]( by [Nir Eyal](. âI started exploring how my brain ð§ was unconsciously programmed to reach for the phone every time I felt the slightest discomfort,â he continued. Then came [Zario](. It works to help you find digital balances with âscience-backed challengesâ on your phone. Examples include things like turning your phone to black & white to make it less appealing and making an origami. The challenges arenât meant to transform your life instantly, but help you find short-term relief that adjusts your behavior over time (âsooner than later my brain found a workaround.â) One commenter, Sarah Jordi, added ââ¬ï¸ this part is really spot on⦠deleting or time-restricting TikTok is only symptom control and not addressing the issue at its rootâ¦â Co-founder Killian Fjellbakk also chimed in to explain to one commenter how the team approaches the app's challenges, explaining "Novelty and scarcity is often a trigger that draws us to picking up our phones more often; fomo. We've been relying on extensive testing⦠Finding the right balance is definitely key.â Now is a great time to join the conversation and give Zario feedback about its MVP.
