"This app does something that none of the others do - keeps me from picking up my phone!"

Rather than block or limit screen time, Aro develops the habit of physically putting your phone down when you want to focus, engage, connect, or simply be present.

How it Works

The App

A habit-forming app that encourages and motivates you to spend less time glued to your screen and more time enjoying life’s moments. The app automatically tracks your off-screen time and gamifies the experience of being away from your phone.

The Box

Purchase an Aro box (optional) to pair with the Aro app. The box acts as the visual cue to be present with your family, automatically tracks and rewards you for intentional time away from your phone, and charges your phone while you recharge.

Who it's for

Screen time is the number one battle among families today. Aro takes a family and parent-first approach to reducing screen time.

A Parent-first approach

For Parents

The number one predictor of how your kids will use a phone someday is how you use your phone today. Aro lets you model the right relationship with your own device which sets up your kids for success when they eventually have a device of their own.

Make them safe and successful

For Kids

It's never too early to start teaching them. Aro gives your kids a healthy understanding of technology, a plan for when they do get a phone, and the tools to make sure they are safe and successful with their devices.

"We're putting a ton of intentionality into how we're raising our family and the time we're spending with our kids"

"The first time I left my phone in Aro and walked away I felt free! It's a feeling that I didn't know I was fully craving at the time but now it's a feeling I crave all the time."

"I would suggest it to everyone. It brings families together and gets you interested in other things than your phone. Just by getting off your phone you can feel more alive and happier."

"My wife, daughter, and I have all found HOURS more time in our lives in just two weeks by having the Aro box. We compete against each other to put our phone down the longest. Great app, great product"

"I don’t want my kids constantly seeing me with my head down to be normal. Aro gives us an invitation to put our phones away and allows us to be more present with each other.”
