🔎 Have you ever wondered how much of your screen time could be spent more meaningfully? We love seeing innovative ideas that tackle real-world problems, and we’re proud to have Unpluq as a part of our community. 🌱 Founded by Jorn Rigter and developed at TU Delft, Unpluq aims to help people reduce smartphone addiction and live a richer life.

🚀 Big news for Unpluq! 🚀 From today, anyone can invest in Unpluq and join our mission: to make phones less addictive so you can live a richer life! It’s such a critical mission, getting more important every day. The way we spend our days, determines the quality of our lives. On average, we spend 5 hours and 20 minutes a day looking at our phones. That’s 18 years of your lifetime! 18 whole years that could have been spent fully embracing life’s rich experiences. 👉 But I cannot stress this enough: it’s not your fault. Technology is evolving much faster than the human brain, and big tech is hacking our very biology: our reward centers 🧠 I started Unpluq because the solutions that were out there just didn’t cut it: screen time apps are way too easy to go around, dumbphones don’t have the apps you need, and using sheer willpower against the addictive trillion-dollar tech industry just doesn’t work. Unpluq was created to strike a balance—to give people the tools to intentionally engage with their devices. Tipping back the scale to a fulfilled life 🫶 Your support means more than just an investment—it’s a commitment to a healthier, more mindful digital future. I’m so excited to welcome all people who believe in our vision to own a part of Unpluq! An investment is possible from $250–if you want to be part of this movement, check out our Wefunder page to learn more: https://lnkd.in/dzygpQdW It’s so amazing to see that something I started during university is now impacting so many people’s lives 🤩 I’m so thankful to everyone who has helped us get here! On to the next part of the journey. Let’s make a difference together 💪
