Why a dummy device?
Phone addiction is a habit loop, not a willpower problem. Here is how a realistic dummy phone can help you beat doomscrolling and get your attention back.

The Device That Does Nothing On Purpose
It looks, weighs and feels like your phone. It can't send you down a rabbit hole, because there's nothing there to suck you in.
Feels Like Your Phone
Functioning Buttons
Zero Connectivity
No Internal Electronics
Who it's for
Three reasons to carry a decoy
Break The Habit
Carry similar weight and shape of a phone without the distractions that keep stealing your attention.
Give Them “Their Phone”
A realistic, low cost, decoy so tiny hands stop hijacking (and breaking) yours.
The Gift Of Nothing
A dead-serious replica of a phone that does absolutely nothing. A fun gag gift.
HOW IT WORKS
01
Swap It Out
Slide The Detox Device into your pocket, bag, or kid's hand right where the real thing usually lives.
02
Leave The Real One Behind
Put your actual phone in a drawer, another room, or a bag by the door. Out of sight, out of mind.
03
Notice What You Don't Do
No notifications to check, no feed to fall into, no reason to look down. Stay engaged with life.
“So, it doesn't actually do anything?”
Exactly.
Doomscrolling out, wellbeing in!
