Need a break from doomscrolling?

Us too, that’s why we’ve created the SoCo Phone Challenge.

It’s a mobile app that lets you create a shared challenge for you, your friends & family.

  1. Pick a 1, 2 or 4 week challenge

  2. You can choose which apps & websites you want to limit

  3. Choose your daily time limit

  4. Share the challenge with friends. They each pick their own apps, websites and time limit for the challenge duration

“I’ve always struggled with my phone use - staying up late, doomscrolling and never fully disconnecting. And I know I’m not alone.

So I joined up with some friends in tech and created the SoCo Phone Challenge.

We wanted something simple, fairly priced, that can make a real difference.

Change is hard but it’s easier when we do it together”
