Zitro for screen detox
Look up more.
You reach for one fact and resurface twenty minutes later, somewhere you never meant to go. Zitro gives you the fact — and none of the undertow.
The problem was never the question. It's what the phone does after it answers: a badge, a headline, a short video, another. The tools we use to know things are owned by the business of keeping us looking.
Zitro is the opposite instrument. It does one thing — answers the question you actually asked — and then its screen fades to black. Its resting state is dark and silent. There is no feed to fall into, because there is no feed.
That's not a wellness setting you have to configure and defend. It's the hardware.
Calm, by construction
Answer, then dark
The signature move: it shows the answer, waits while you read, and fades to black. Every interaction ends on quiet, not on a call-to-action.
Nothing to scroll
No feed, no "you might also like", no next card sliding in. One question, one answer.
Nothing that pings
The only thing that ever appears is a timer you set yourself — quietly, on screen.
One shake, one fact
Curiosity without an algorithm farming it. You decide when there's a next one — with a deliberate act, not a thumb on a wheel.
Sleeps by default
Three-stage sleep. Dark is its natural state.
Mindful timers
"Set a pomodoro." "Remind me at 5:30." A silent visual nudge when it's time — so you can put every screen away until then.
Phone stays in the hall
Dinner, a walk, a Sunday morning: keep the answers and lose the apps. Zitro covers the "but what if I need to look something up?" excuse.
The break that stays a break
You step out of a long meeting. A question's been nagging — a figure to double-check, a word in another language, the name of that author. Normally this is where the phone comes out and ten minutes vanish into messages and a feed.
Instead you ask Zitro, read the one answer on its little screen, slip it back in a pocket, and walk back into the room — still thinking about the meeting, not about what you almost got pulled into.
A tool can answer your question without taking your afternoon.
Keep the answers. Lose the undertow.
Zitro costs $25, has no subscription, and never asks for your attention back.
