Overview

Screen Time is an exploration into how a thoughtfully designed product can shift the relationship people have with their phones — from reactive use toward intentional use.

This case study walks through the problem framing, research, and design decisions behind the early prototypes.

Problem & Research

Existing screen-time tools rely on hard limits and shame loops. They're effective for blunt restriction but rarely change underlying behavior. The opportunity is to design for awareness and intent, not punishment.

Design Exploration

Early concepts experimented with intent-setting flows, friction at app-launch, and ambient summaries that surface patterns without nagging the user.
