Creating the Intent Case–A Portable Timed Safe for My Phone

You could at least have named the prior art you appreciated and pictured, but I'll just link to its Amazon page: Kitchen Safe Time Locking Container (Medium), Timed Lock Box for Cell Phones, Snacks, and other unwanted temptations (White Lid + 5.5” White Base) https://a.co/d/d62NlvL

Thanks! Appreciate the product link here. I'm a big fan of these as well, just not the form-factor

Heya!

I'm a product developer, currently working to create a portable timed locking case for my phone. I've experimented with a lot of tools to limit my phone use, and so far this is proving the most effective.

Collaborators and feedback wanted!

What if you get a call? Not knowing who is calling would be frustrating. Knowing would possibly be even worse.

I think there's a spectrum of tech reduction tools, from a soft block (e.g. Freedom.to) and leading to the hard block (Intent Case)

For some folks always being connected is a hard and fast product requirement, but others are happy to forgo an urgent call. Note that a generation ago, any trip away from the house required you to accept that you wouldn't be available for a call
