Zero Dopamine — The Digital Detox App
The app we built to help you disconnect from compulsive phone use.
Philosophy
We live in an era where our phones are designed to keep us hooked. Every notification, every infinite scroll, every "one more game" is optimized to generate dopamine. Zero Dopamine was born from a simple idea: giving you back control of your time.
It's not about stopping phone use. It's about using it with intention, not out of habit.
What is Zero Dopamine?
It's an app we built from scratch to fight compulsive phone use. Its approach isn't to punish or block you: it's to make you aware of how much time you spend on each app and help you set real limits.

Why another app?
Most "digital wellbeing" apps are made by the same companies that want you hooked. We have no ads, we don't sell data, and we don't want you to spend more time in the app. We want you to spend less time in all of them.

Design
Zero Dopamine uses a minimalist blue-themed design, crafted to convey calm instead of anxiety. No aggressive colors, no red badges, no artificial urgency. The interface is designed so you use it as little as possible.
