Less screen time.
No guilt.

Vuro has no hard blocks. Instead, a simple countdown timer slows you down during focus hours. If you delete the app while using your phone, it texts a message to friends you selected at setup.

"We raise the social cost of quitting, not the cost of using."
The Vuro Principle

Two simple systems to help you focus.

A brief delay

Tapping a blocked app opens a countdown timer of 15 to 60 seconds. This brief delay gives you time to decide if you really need to open the app.

An accountability circle

You choose two or three contacts. If you delete the app while your phone is active, our server detects the silence and texts them the message you wrote during setup. We never track or share your usage data.

No friction when off the clock

Vuro does nothing outside your focus hours or under your daily limit. There are no reminders or mindfulness prompts. Allowed time works exactly as normal.
