Pause - Pause the digital. Start the real. app for iPhone and iPad

It might not be a drug, but a digital based addiction can still keep you away from your real life.

Pause is a mobile app designed to help us reconnect with real life. Pause helps us to reduce our dependency on digital media and in turn free us up to do something more.

Who is more addicted, you or your friends? Pause uses a leaderboard so you can compete and compare the amount of time you spend looking at the world beyond a touchscreen.

Pause works by tracking the amount of time your phone is in Airplane Mode. First, open Pause and set the amount of time you want to be offline and the activity you plan on doing. Finally, activate the Airplane Mode in your phone’s Settings to complete the process. It is that easy. Read a book, cook a meal, talk with your friends - disconnect from the digital to reconnect to the real...

Pause Together allows to invite other users to pause with you. You can send the Pause request and your friends can join you. You can enjoy being offline together.

Addiction to digital media is a growing problem. The goal of Pause is to help users reduce their reliance on digital devices by providing a way to track progress and introduce goals of reducing digital addiction and create meaningful interaction in our lives beyond the digital realm.
