Take back your time
A kinder way to ease phone addiction — an AI accountability partner, an app blocker, and support close by when you need it.
01 / A kinder way
Make room for real life
An unhurried cup of tea. A chapter of that book. You don’t have to give up your phone to want a little more space from it.
Inside BeFree
What it is
Four calm ways to spend less time pulled into your screen — no promise of a perfect streak.
-
01
Your AI accountability partner
A companion you name and talk to anytime — a gentle nudge when you go quiet, a kind word after a slip. Never a lecture.
-
02
PlusBlock what pulls you in
An app blocker for the apps that pull you in — on a schedule or by place — plus a Shorts & Reels blocker and an on-device adult-content filter.
-
03
Small wins, every day
A simple daily check-in builds your streak, and you can see your screen time app by app. Honest check-ins are the whole practice — no judgement either way.
-
04
Help, one tap away
Supportive links to counselling, articles, and crisis lines — always close by when you need them.
02 / AI companion
Meet your companion
Name it. Talk things through. A gentle nudge when you go quiet, a kind word after a slip — never a lecture.
AI support — not therapy or a crisis service.
03 / App blocking · Plus
Make space. On your terms
Block the apps that pull you in — on a schedule, or only in certain places. Step gently out of YouTube Shorts and Instagram Reels. Filter adult content on your device. Every permission is yours to grant, and to take back.
