Meet 'Moment'!
Moment is an app that helps you track and control your daily phone usage. This app is the brainchild of iOS developer Kevin Holesh who was inspired to work on this app after he, himself came to the conclusion that he had been ignoring the people around him. "I wrote Moment for myself. I find myself ignoring my family and friends in favor of my iPhone. Sometimes that's okay, like when I'm looking up who starred in Men In Black with Will Smith on IMDB, but I really should be concentrating on the present moment and the people I love around me. I'm lucky enough to have a loving family and stellar friends, I should enjoy them every chance I get. Facebook, Pinterest, and texting can wait".
You have to simply open the app once for setting it up and it would run in the background, sending you constant reminders and warnings when you are approaching your set phone usage limit. The app also tracks where you go every day and plots your travels on a map for you.
You can also set up occasional nudges throughout the day, choosing a subtle reminder sound saying, 'You've been on your phone for 39 minutes today'.
Moment's goal is not to discourage you from using your phone but to help you balance things. "My goal was to find a balance of connected and disconnected that was right for me. I hope Moment helps you find that balance too."
