The problem
Checking your phone for a second easily turns into twenty minutes.
That isn't a flaw in you. Plenty of technology is built for precisely that. But over a year it adds up.
- 61 whole days a year
- 25% of your waking hours
days on your screen the rest of your year
Every dot is one day. Based on sixteen waking hours — it's the order of magnitude that matters, not the decimal.
What we stand for
Not less screen.
More choice.
-
Deliberate
Use technology because you chose to, not because your hand got there first.
-
Human
Technology ought to be built around people. Usually it's the other way round.
-
Enough
Not every second needs filling. Boredom isn't a problem waiting to be solved.
Technology may ask for your attention. Not claim it.What it came down to for us
And that's how we know
Five things tried. Two stuck.
We're not researchers. We simply tried it on ourselves, and most of it didn't last a week.
-
01
Delete everything
Cold turkey on social media. By week two it was all back — half our social life ran through those apps.
Lasted 9 days -
02
Screen time limits
Thirty minutes per app, behind a passcode. After three days we knew the passcode by heart.
Lasted 3 days -
03
Greyscale
All the colour gone. It genuinely helps against aimless scrolling, but you get used to it and the effect fades.
Worked, then wore off -
04
Phone-free places
Not in bed, not at the table. No willpower involved — the phone simply wasn't there.
Still going -
05
Something to go back to
A book on the nightstand, a guitar in the room. The problem turned out to be boredom, not the phone.

What we do
This is where the offering goes
This section is deliberately empty for now. Once it's clear what ScreEnough actually offers — activities, tools, workshops, something for schools or employers — it goes here. The layout is modular, so parts can be added without rebuilding the page.
That's it.
You don't have to stay. If you'd rather try this alongside other people, that's where we are.
